190.7 Terms descriptive of shell.
(a) Clean.
A shell that is free from foreign material and from stains or discolorations that are readily visible. An egg may be considered clean if it has only very small specks or stains, if such specks or stains are not of sufficient number or intensity to detract from the generally clean appearance of the egg. Eggs that show traces of processing oil on the shell are considered clean unless otherwise soiled.
(b) Dirty.
An individual egg that has an unbroken shell with adhering dirt or foreign material, prominent stains, or moderate stains covering more than 1/32 of the shell surface if localized, or 1/16 of the shell surface if scattered.
(c) Practically normal (AA or A quality).
A shell that approximates the usual shape and that is of good even texture and strength and is free from rough areas or thin spots. Slight ridges and rough areas that do not materially affect the shape, texture and strength of the shell are permitted.
(d) Abnormal (B quality).
A shell that may be somewhat unusual or decidedly misshapen or faulty in soundness or strength or that may show pronounced ridges or thin spots.
