Refrigerators used to have recesses along the top of the door to hold eggs, but they don't anymore. Why not?

Because the temperature in the door is not cool enough for eggs. You are also not suppose to keep milk there either.

Its been said that the constant - albiet minor - temperature changes every time you open the fridge door is detremental to the freshness and safety of the eggs.
They need to maintain a more constant cool temperture to keep fresher longer. On the door, the temp changes every time the door is opened.
So, put your eggs in the back of a middle shelf where the temp is more constant.

The reason is that eggs keep better at room temperature.
They also need to be at room temp.for baking etc.

Cuz too many people got mad, slammed the door and eggs flew everywhere...theyre safer in their little cardboard crates.

cause people don't clean those things. or anyting for that matter. so they get filthy and nobody wants to put thier eggs in there.

sitting there. atleast in the carton theres the expiration date.
