If your only reason for eating is to stave off hunger then by all means eat the cheap ones, where the hens have fed off junk.
If you care about nourishing your body, it matters what that hen ate.

What that hen ate can affect whether the egg is worth cooking and eating

Better people than us have got it wrong about what is good and nutritious. Pay extra if you wish, I find I can eat over twice as many eggs if I buy the ones produced with those energiser triple AAA's and then I can go to the same store a week later and buy the eggs mother pre-cooked at a very reasonable price probably knowing that I will live longer because I fret less about what I'm shoving down my throat.
