    Eggs are refrigerated in Japan all the time (edit: as I regularly not literally 109% of the time; bad word choice on my part). Source: years living in Japan and every supermarket I go to. There are always for more refrigerated than not.

    I think (at least some) are refrigerated in route to stores during distribution, but I’m not sure on any numbers here

      I’ve lived here for over a decade and I’ve seen them not refrigerated more often than not. But, it could also be where we tend to shop.
