On cracked eggs

If I get a dozen eggs and there’s a small crack / dent in one of them, can I still eat it?

Eggs can be dangerous

Don’t eat cracked eggs. Any fissure in the shell is a portal for bacteria to get into the egg. The only exception is if you’re positive that you cracked one of the eggs yourself (e.g in your bag on the way home from the store). In that case, break the cracked egg into a bowl, cover it, and use it within the next few days.

As for dented eggs, where did you get a dented egg?
