Read MoreNew Meta-Analysis Findings: Eggs are Beneficial for Heart Health
Working in the egg industry is always an adventure – especially when it comes to the science! Researchers around the world are constantly conducting studies on diet and nutrition, and eggs are often in the spotlight.

Jenny Casson’s Festive Holiday Treats
Some thoughts from Jenny Casson, our sponsored Olympic athlete, on the holiday season … Baking Christmas cookies and treats and delivering them to friends and family is a holiday tradition in our household. As the house fills with scents of nutmeg, cinnamon and oh, so much butter, you know that the season has officially begun. Our family believes pouring your time and attention into baking for loved ones truly captures the spirit of the season. From the preparation to the delivery, blasting those classic holiday tunes and making a mess of your kitchen in the name of Christmas is a wonderful way to get together and greet the season.

Kids' Snacking Made Easy
Canadians love to snack, and that’s especially true for children. In fact, snacking contributes about 27% of the total daily energy (calorie) intake in Canadian children, who actually snack more than adults (21% of calories). But snacking is a good thing for children, as long as the snacks provide some nourishment. Little tummies get full quickly, so it’s hard to get enough nutrition at mealtime alone. Snacks can be used to fill in the gaps for foods that are not consumed at mealtime.
