Not really. Cage free vs. caged or organic corn vs. non-organic corn is a feel good thing.
It all depends on what they eat. Both articles actually say this, but bury it for some reason.
Hens in a barnyard eating high quality feed supplemented by insects, etc have a different flavor and texture than hens just fed feed. "Eggland's best" taste different because they are supplemented with flax.
Similar phenomena exists with beef and pork. Grass fed beef tastes different due to more Omega-3 in grass. Danish pork tastes a little different because the pigs eat fish.
