§ 27517 Egg Labeling Misrepresentation

• •You can't lie about eggs. That means no fake labels, wrong names, or tricky words on the egg box.
• •The label on the eggs, the box, or even a sign near the eggs must tell the truth about what's inside.
• •If you sell eggs in big piles (like at a farm stand), you still can't trick people about what they're buying.

A store sells a carton of eggs with a label that says 'Fresh Farm Eggs' but the eggs are actually old and from a big factory.

This is breaking the law because the label is lying about where the eggs come from and how fresh they are. The label must tell the truth.
