I have some eggs with the best by date of 11/25. Are they safe to use?

I would use them.

Eggs are good much longer than those dates would have you believe.

Break one open. I wondered too but it looked awful so I threw the carton away.

If it floats IT IS NOT GOOD!!!! ..... if it sinks to the bottom & lays on it's side it is still fresh & goof to eat.

someone asked that question before on tv and the answer was - it's still good up to 2 weeks after the use by date.

@Mz iMac LOLOL I didn't expect Prince to weigh in on the egg issue. Thanks for the chuckle! (By the way -- big Prince fan, here.) :-)
