Eggs (TN)

How do you tell if eggs are safe to eat?

          Eggs are safe to eat up to five weeks after the "sell by" date. 

Can you tell when the eggs were packed?

          Supposedly there is a 3-digit number under the "sell by" date.  This would be the number of the packing date.  (if 041 is shown as the number of the packing date, which would equate with February 10, the 41st day of the year.)

This is confusing because my latest egg carton shows "EXP 01 19" or "don't sell by January 19th" and the other numbers under this date don't seem to make sense to me.  This may be because the Pennsylvania agriculture inspections are involved.
