Cedar Knolls, NJ – The November issue of Men’s Health Magazine features their annual list of 125 Best Foods for Men, and awarded Eggland’s Best (EB) Organic Eggs as the “Best Egg” in the dairy and deli category. After analyzing more than 1,000 supermarket products and awarding points to products that are low in calories and high in protein and fiber, Men’s Health Magazine selected Eggland’s Best Organic eggs, because of their superior taste and nutrition.

“Eggland’s Best is thrilled to be named as one of Men’s Health Magazine’s 125 Best Foods for Men for the seventh year in a row,” said Charlie Lanktree, President and CEO of Eggland’s Best. “With thousands of supermarket products vying for this coveted award, it’s an honor to be recognized for our superior taste, nutrition and performance.”

What sets Eggland’s Best apart from ordinary eggs is their all-natural, vegetarian hen feed, strict quality assurance program and localized production, enabling delivery of Eggland’s Best eggs to supermarkets within 24 to 48 hours of laying.

As a result, Eggland’s Best eggs deliver great taste and nutrition.
