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

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

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.)  :-)
