Grocery Store Eggs Vs. Public Market Eggs

Eggs listed as "free range" from the grocery likely do not come from chickens who were allowed to roam freely and are often no better and/or the same as factory farmed eggs:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_range

"The U.S. Department of Agriculture requires that chickens raised for their meat have access to the outdoors in order to receive the free-range certification. Free-range chicken eggs, however, have no legal definition in the United States. Likewise, free-range egg producers have no common standard on what the term means. Many egg farmers sell their eggs as free range merely because their cages are 2 or 3 inches above average size, or there is a window in the shed."
