How to Test the Freshness of Eggs. 1  Place the egg in a bowl of water. 2  If the egg lays on its side at the bottom, it is still quite fresh. 3  If the egg stands upright on the bottom, it is still fine to eat, but should be eaten very soon, or hard-boiled.  If the egg floats to the top, it's past its prime, and not good for eating.
How long do eggs stay fresh in the refrigerator? Answer     If eggs start out as Grade AA, they remain AA for only two weeks if properly refrigerated.

There is an expiration date on the carton. If in doubt, put the egg in water.
