  1. Here are some simple ways to tell if eggs have gone bad:

    Smell test: Fresh eggs have little to no smell. If you crack an egg and it smells sour, sulfurous, or rotten, it’s bad.

    Visual check: Look for discoloration (pink, green, or black spots) or a cloudy, watery egg white—these are signs of spoilage.

    Float test: Place the egg in a bowl of water. Fresh eggs sink and lie flat; eggs that stand upright or float are old and may be spoiled.

    Shell condition: If the shell is cracked or slimy, bacteria can get in, making the egg unsafe.

    Expiration date: Check the sell-by or expiration date on the carton as a guideline, but freshness can vary.
