Will we get sick?

[Pink977]

Baked a cake. Eggs had been in the fridge previous. Since found out that the eggs I used had actually been sat out on the kitchen side from 11am-6pm when I used them for the cake. Will we get sick??!

No. Eggs don't need to be refrigerated

No you won’t get sick. In fact it would have helped your cake as you’re supposed to use eggs at room temperature!

No. Sounds fine.

No. Eggs aren't kept in the fridge at the supermarket. They don't need to be in the fridge at home.

No

eggs aren’t kept in the fridge in the supermarket at all

If you live in the UK, have you never noticed that eggs are not typically refrigerated? You’ll be fine.

eggs don’t need to be refrigerated
When you buy them at the supermarket they’re on shelves / ambient temperature

I’m worried about the temperature change from them being in the fridge to then being at room temp and used

Of course not. You get egg holders
to keep eggs on outside the fridge.

No. The eggs shouldn't have been in the fridge, but a brief stint in there won't make them harmful.

What are you on about? Do you do your own shopping? Do you get them out of the fridge a the supermarket?

No you be alll ok. I rarely put eggs in fridge and never get sick

Of course not!

You don’t need to store eggs in the fridge.

You’re worrying over nothing

whaaaat? 😂 of course they’re fine

Eggs should never be kept in the fridge.

You then baked the cake in a hot oven.

Absolutely fine.

And you’re not worried about the even larger temperature change when you cook them?

This made me laugh!

Me too!

OP, it's better to use eggs at room temperature for baking

Eggs are kept on the open shelf in the supermarket

Yes you're going to be violently ill. Cold to room temperature and then to 180 degrees in the oven. Food poisoning is a certainty with these temperature changes.

No eggs don't belong in the fridge

🤣

I never put my eggs in the fridge.

Most receipes tell to let eggs get to room temp before baking with them. I never keep mine in the fridge
