Fiction:  Brown-shelled eggs are more nutritious than white.

FACT:  Shell color is determined by the breed of the hen and does not affect quality, nutrients, flavor, or cooking characteristics.  Since brown-egg layers are slightly larger birds and required more food, their eggs are usually more expensive than white.
