how long after sell by date are eggs still safe to eat
Asker's rating. Report Abuse. As long as they are refrigerated, they are good for six months after the sell by date. Eggs are like milk, it they are bad, they smell bad. Also, the USDA puts stricter regulations that necessary because there are still idiots out there eating raw cookie dough and undercooked eggs. If they don't smell bad, they're ok....just cook them thoroughly.
