The average California consumer uses 240 eggs per year and coincidentally that's the typical output of an average laying hen. This year we have a great new advertising campaign featuring Jonathon Winters. In addition to advertising eggs, our mission is to educate about eggs. To that end, we have many publications including three new culinary videos. See our publication order form .
