I can tell how much PUFA a chicken eats based on the taste of its raw egg. I’m laughing as I’m typing this because it sounds so ridiculous but it’s true 😂

A pretty simple test is how orange is the yolk. Pale yellow is a sure sign of high PUFA intake.
It follows that the taste would also be different but I can't honestly say I've tried the Pepsi challenge.
I’ve always thought that the orange-ness of the yolk is more correlated with nutrient density, but there’s probably a major inverse correlation with PUFAs too.
When I eat raw eggs that I know aren’t low-PUFA, they have a slight tinge to their aftertaste that’s a bit off-putting. But recently I had the highest quality, likely lowest PUFA raw eggs I’ve ever had, and it tasted actually pretty good. It stuck out because it surprised me how palatable it was.
