fresh eggs, eggs to be consumed fresh
Explanation:
Não tenho certeza de que a minha resposta servirá, mas algo me diz que alguém pisou na bola na hora de escrever...

Ovos em natureza deve ser "in natura", expressão em latim que quer dizer "frescos", não processados.

OK, depois do contexto adicional, tenho certeza: é "in natura" mesmo: leite in natura, carne in natura, ovos in natura. Não confundir com free-range, que não é a mesma coisa: free-range pressupõe que as galinhas foram criadas soltas (são os "ovos caipiras"), mas o seu texto não menciona isso.

neutral  Henrique Serra: Katarina, there is nothing in the text indicating these are free-range eggs; from the additional context, I gather that the issue here is about the eggs being for processing or to be consumed "as is". I'm afraid the "free range" condition is not involved.
