Egg GRADE AA, AAA ?

Beening the crap cook that i am, i was wondering what Egg Grade means, I see them on the carton AA AAA etc. What is better, what do they mean?

the age of the egg. the older the egg, the darker the yolk

I believe it is an identifier that differentiates between strapless and the padlock of doom

The higher grade eggs have firmer whites. Lower grade eggs are runny and the yolk isn't well protected.

Always buy the highest grade eggs and keep them cold.

They spin the eggs infront of a light that allows the inspector to watch the yolk inside of the egg.
