Are eggs perishable or non-perishable

Eggs are considered perishable due to their organic nature and the potential for bacterial growth. They can spoil if not stored properly, especially at room temperature, and typically have a shelf life of about 3 to 5 weeks when refrigerated. However, in some cases, such as in certain preservation methods like pickling or freezing, eggs can be stored for longer periods. Proper handling and storage are essential to maintain their freshness and safety.
