I mentioned this before, but I remember when younger we'd bring bologna or ham sandwiches to school in little brown paper bag, complete with mayo etc. and just keep them in the unrefrigerated for at least 5 hours before eating with no problems.
Fast forward 30 years and I had coworkers who would use a mini-cooler dealie with an ice pack so that their lunch would survive the 25 minute car ride from their home to to the break room fridge. Crazy.

Of course, that was back in the days when parents actually could prepare lunch for their progeny as opposed to the government providing free breakfasts and lunches.
3-4 weeks is the longest I can find, on any site. I would really like to know your source. I would stock up, if I knew they would last.
I learned that from the US Army. The large foodservice corporation that I worked for at the time would do cross trainings with some of the local army bases so that their personnel would learn what civilian operations and visa versa.
Personally, I would not store an egg much past four months although I have consumed eggs as old as six months old with no ill effects. There days, we generally go through a half dozen eggs a week as we are not doing a lot of baking.

Rule of thumb, if they don't float they are good. I've had them several months past the best by date with no ill effects. You probably aren't going to find that 'sourced' anywhere because of fear of liability.

There is a difference between being safe and having the properties of an egg that you want. Fresh eggs are better for some recipes, and old eggs for others. Old eggs can peel easier when boiled. Fresh eggs make meringue better.
I noticed supermarkets in the UK keep eggs on the shelf with the canned goods. Never refrigerated.
That's because they don't wash eggs in Europe before they go to market. This has been discussed to death before in another thread. Apparently Americans can't handle poop and feathers stuck to their eggs.

Their eggs aren't filthy. There aren't any feathers clinging to them.
