This thread won't be long I am just asking is it me?
I bought bread and organic eggs from a brand (family) I know doesn't make me sick like all other eggs do. White bread is a treat for me so I was happy to get a small loaf of the Wonder bread and the Pete and Gerry brown eggs.
Well I made an egg sandwich and the bread tasted horrible and eggs gave me that sickening feeling the other brands would always make me feel and taste.
I checked the sell by dates on both and I have over a week to buy them so I am good with that. I checked the butter too and that is good too. I figured I will try another way to cook the eggs and this time make toast. Well damn still not good it's like they were sour? or maybe a better word would be like they went bad when they were still new from the store recently bought about two days ago.
What the heck is going on with the bread and eggs?
I don't know - eggs normally keep quite awhile so long as they are refrigerated, and you can see mold on bread. It sounds like you've had issues before - have you ever been tested for food allergies?
I've never really noticed a difference in egg brands. I usually just buy whatever cage free egg is cheapest. They've always tasted fine to me.
Are you on any medications that could be affecting how foods taste to you? I'm on Mounjaro, and while it hasn't affected my taste buds, there are many in my MJ Facebook group who report that certain foods taste terrible to them now.
I only ever had a problem with eggs since somewhere in the year 2018 ever since. I never had a problem with the Pete and Gerry's organic eggs before now.
Now I decided to try hot dog rolls from the same brand the white bread is from and they taste so much better than their regular white sandwich bread.
Getting an allergy test is a good idea, thanks. But before I do I will try a new purchase of them first to make sure it wasn't something in that batch of eggs and bread. Never know if it's just an odd thing that happened during the making of the bread or what may have changed in the chicken feed.

Reason: yes I am on meds but they are the same I always had except I added Iron that I was low on.
If it was just the bread or just the eggs I would say something might be wrong with them, but that you had a weird reaction to both makes me think it's probably that something changed with you. And while I get the bread, that there is only one brand of eggs you can eat is pretty strange.
We bought eggs from a farm stand recently. They had all the eggs on shelves in a shed and told us they would be good for at least a month at room temperature, no refrigeration needed. It takes eggs a really long time to go bad.

This. You, OP were the common denominator here. Consider that if you can't find a favorite brand and reluctantly buy a substitute, you may be on high alert for any differences. You could sort of psyche yourself into finding something wrong with it!
IME, histamine reactions (like seasonal allergy symptoms...blocked, stuffy nose and/or sinuses etc.) can influence how things taste. Your senses of taste and smell are closely linked.
Raw eggs in undamaged shells can sit on a shelf without refrigeration quite well. A mildly cool pantry or cupboard that doesn't get heated by sunlight or the stove is perfect!
