§ 27637 Egg Misrepresentation Prohibition

• •You can't lie about eggs—like saying they're fresh when they're old, or big when they're small.
• •This includes lying in talking, writing, or any other way about where the eggs come from or how good they are.
• •If you trick someone about eggs on purpose, you're breaking the law.

A farmer sells eggs at a market and puts a sign that says 'Organic Free-Range Eggs' but the eggs are actually from caged hens.

The farmer is lying about where the eggs come from and how they were made. This is against the law because it tricks people into buying something that isn't what they think it is.
