There are, of course, many reasons. Here’s just one to start:

The taste, quality and nutritional value of milk and eggs depends in large part on the diet of the cows and chickens that produced them. Food from chickens and cows that eat their greens (what they’re supposed to eat) are significantly higher in healthy Omega-3 fats and also have more vitamins and antioxidants. In fact, research has shown that eggs from pastured hens can contain as much as 10 times more Omega-3’s than eggs from factory hens.
