Brown and white eggs are the same in terms of taste and nutritional value, but what hens were fed can affect the color. Here's which eggs to buy. Brown versus white eggs: Which eggs to buy and why
Egg white consists primarily of about 90% water into which about 10% proteins (including albumins, mucoproteins, and globulins) are dissolved.
