Where to Buy Vegan Eggs Online (and How to Store Them)

Once you've decided to try a plant-based egg, the next question is surprisingly practical: where do you actually buy it, and once it's in your kitchen, how do you keep it from going to waste? The answer depends heavily on which format you're buying. Refrigerated liquid eggs and shelf-stable powders are sold through different channels and need to be handled completely differently once they're home. Here's what we could actually verify, brand by brand, plus a couple of honest gaps where a brand simply doesn't publish the information.

Where Each Brand Is Actually Sold Online

A few honest notes on that table. "Not confirmed" means we searched and didn't find a live listing, not that a brand is definitely absent from that retailer; retailer catalogs change often. JUST Egg and Bob's Red Mill have, by a clear margin, the widest mainstream retail presence of the group. Peggs is currently sold direct at eatpeggs.com and on Amazon, with wholesale distribution through Pod Foods and Faire for retailers who want to carry it in stores. Zero Egg is worth calling out specifically: it's a foodservice brand sold to restaurants and institutions, and we could not find it listed for direct consumer purchase anywhere.

If a specific brand matters to you and it's not listed above for your preferred retailer, your best bet is checking that retailer's site directly, since online grocery inventory shifts week to week.

Every liquid or whole-egg-format plant-based egg on the market needs to stay cold, the same as a carton of real eggs. A few honest caveats before we get into specifics: we looked for official, brand-published shelf-life numbers (exact days unopened and after opening) from JUST Egg and Zero Egg directly and could not find them published on either brand's site. Third-party sources disagree with each other on exact day counts for JUST Egg, so rather than repeat a number we can't verify, here's the guidance that applies broadly to any pasteurized refrigerated liquid egg product:

• Keep it refrigerated at all times, and don't let it sit at room temperature longer than necessary to pour and cook.

• Check the date printed on the container. Once past that date, don't use it.

• Once opened, use it promptly, treat it the way you'd treat an opened carton of egg substitute or fresh dairy, generally within about a week, and always trust your nose and eyes over a guessed number.

• If a product supports freezing, portion it into an airtight, freezer-safe container first; check the specific brand's own guidance before freezing, since not every liquid egg product is designed for it.

For the General Services side of this, the USDA's food safety guidance for egg products (aimed primarily at manufacturers, but useful context) confirms these are pasteurized products that require consistent cold-chain handling from production through your fridge.

How to Store Shelf-Stable Powders (Peggs, Bob's Red Mill, AcreMade)

Shelf-stable powdered egg alternatives are a genuinely different category, and this is where the "how do I store this" question gets a lot simpler.

Peggs specifically states on its product page: check the Best By date on the pouch (most run a year or more), store it in a cool, dry place away from light and moisture, and it keeps well beyond that date if unopened, no refrigeration required at any stage. Once you've opened the pouch, Peggs recommends resealing it and using the contents within a few months.

Bob's Red Mill publishes preparation ratios for its powder (roughly 1 tablespoon powder to 2 tablespoons water per whole egg) but, like most brands in this category, doesn't publish a specific shelf-life figure on its product page for the dry powder itself; a general pantry-staple rule of a cool, dry cupboard and checking the printed date applies here too.

What About Once You've Mixed It With Water?

This is the one gap that applies across the entire powdered category, and we'd rather flag it honestly than guess: none of the shelf-stable brands we researched, including Peggs, publish specific guidance on how long a mixed batter (powder plus water, before cooking) is safe to hold before use. The safest approach is to treat a mixed batch the way you'd treat any fresh, uncooked batter: mix only what you plan to cook that session, refrigerate promptly if you're not using it right away, and don't leave it sitting at room temperature for an extended period. If you regularly mix more than you use in one sitting, it's worth reaching out to the specific brand for their guidance rather than assuming.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Peggs sold on Amazon?

Yes, Peggs is currently listed on Amazon in addition to being sold direct at eatpeggs.com. As of this writing, it isn't listed on Walmart.com, Target.com, or Thrive Market; that could change as retail distribution expands.

Which vegan egg brand is easiest to find online?

JUST Egg has the broadest online availability of any brand we checked, listed on Amazon, Walmart, Target, Whole Foods (via Amazon Fresh), Instacart, and Thrive Market. Bob's Red Mill Egg Replacer is a close second among the powdered options.

Do plant-based eggs need to be refrigerated?

It depends entirely on the format. Liquid and whole-egg-format products, like JUST Egg, Zero Egg, Simply Eggless, and Yo Egg, must be refrigerated at all times. Shelf-stable powders, like Peggs, Bob's Red Mill, and AcreMade, don't need refrigeration at any point before they're mixed with water.

How long does an opened bottle of liquid plant-based egg last?

We couldn't find an official, brand-published day count from JUST Egg or Zero Egg. General food-safety practice for a pasteurized, refrigerated liquid egg product is to use it within about a week of opening and to always check the date on the container, rather than relying on a fixed number.

Can I freeze plant-based egg products?

Some liquid formats can be frozen if portioned properly, but this varies by brand and isn't something we found consistent official guidance on across the board. Check the specific product's packaging or brand FAQ before freezing, rather than assuming it's safe.

How long does a bag of Peggs last once it's opened?

Per Peggs' own product page, once opened you should reseal the pouch and use the contents within a few months. Unopened, it's shelf-stable for a year or more past the Best By date printed on the pouch, as long as it's stored in a cool, dry place.

Where to Start

If you want to try the shelf-stable route, Peggs is available directly here and on Amazon. For more on how plant-based eggs compare and cook, see our guides to egg substitutes and what a plant-based egg actually is.
