Where next? Switzerland? UAE? NL? London?...

not sure what makes an egg organic, but here in the UK I can get half a dozen free-range eggs (from someone's garden) for £1.50 from an honesty box at the end of their drive.

That is Yorkshire though.

Swiss coop is good though. But are the organic eggs also completely white?

They are fed organic...well, stuff, whatever chickens eat. No idea why eggs are so expensive in CH though, I mean it's not like they haven't got enough roaming areas for chickens.

Btw the crazy price was from Migros's own organic sister label, whatever it's called, no idea if that makes it similar to Waitrose / M&S in terms of prices or whether it's more of a mid range kind of place.

There's no reason for organic eggs not to be white. The egg shell colour is down to genetic variability among the chickens. Organic is to do with how the chickens are fed and looked after. People selling their produce from their front garden is a thing here as well. In the Lauterbrunnen valley, I found a vending machine that took credit cards, notes and coins, full of stuff from the nearby farm.

my favourite bit of Swizterland.
Spent many a happy hour in the Horner Pub.
