To supplement your weekly dose of brown, ingest these dietary nuggets:

Myth: Brown eggs are more nutritious than white eggs.

Fact: Egg shell color has nothing to do with nutrient value of an egg. White hens lay white eggs, and brown hens lay brown eggs.

Myth: Brown sugar is healthier than white sugar.

Fact: Brown sugar is refined white sugar with molasses added. The darker the brown sugar, the more molasses it contains. The molasses adds some minerals, but you would have to eat a lot of brown sugar to gain any significant benefit.
