That price tag is missing its Trump “I did this!” sticker.
I know it's crude but I still can't kick my love for the idea of a "I raped that too!" Sticker
Not really Trump. That's avian flu driving that.
There are certainly voters who credit or blame everything in the economy on whoever happens to be President and voted for Trump because they saw a lot of inflation under Biden and hoped that voting for Trump would result in less inflation. Those guys are probably operating on a flawed understanding, though the "if things are going well economically at the moment, credit the President, and if they're going badly, blame the President, because it must be the current President's doing" is not a new phenomenon in American politics.
But this particular effect is really driven by nature.
EDIT:

Why are egg prices soaring?
Behind rising egg prices and shortages is a strain of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI), known as H5N1, that killed 13.2 million commercial egg-laying hens in the month of December alone and continues to depopulate flocks into 2025, according to the USDA. Outbreaks of H5N1 were first detected in the U.S. in 2022 and are considered to be the main driver behind the years-long volatility in egg prices.
H5N1, which has a high mortality rate among infected poultry and wild birds, is being watched closely by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as a potential public health threat. So far, the CDC has received one report of a person dying after being hospitalized with severe illness from the virus. Among cattle, the average mortality and culling rate is 2% or less, according to the American Veterinary Medical Association. However, officials warn that H5N1 is lethal to cats
For now, the virus remains mostly a thorn in the side of U.S. consumers fed up with inflation.
Next thing you know you’ll be telling me Biden had no control over the price of gas! 😉
No one putting up an 'I did this' sticker actually gives a shit about the reasons for the price. And no one ever has.
If only there was some sort of center for disease control that could assist the American public in combating illness. Surely, if such a center did exist, the president wouldn't hamstring them in some way in which may prevent farmers from taking action against infectious diseases destroying their livestock.
Oh, would you look at that, the president did hamstring the CDC by halting regular release of their scientific reports, and so it is, in fact, on him that bird flu is causing egg prices to soar.

If you try to get elected by blaming something on the currently elected official and say that you will fix that, be 100% prepared to take the blame if that thing gets worse even if it was something you had no control in whatsoever, because you stood up and took responsibility for it.
If you don't want to be blamed for saying stupid things, stop saying stupid things.
In case you missed it from a few years ago. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Did_That!
I'm calling it Trump Flu, because why not.
Say, is that the same CBS News who's parent company, Paramount, is currently in talks to settle a legal dispute with Heir Trump because he didn't like their accurate reporting about him so he sued?
Why yes, yes it is!
The primary problem is most people don’t understand inflation. Inflation is the speed at which things get more expensive. There is always creep up.
That’s what the 3% “cost of living” yearly raise is supposed to cover. It’s not really a “good job” raise, it just keeps your wage exactly the same as the prior year alongside inflation. Another thing a lot of people don’t understand, but that’s a bit of a digression.
So. Inflation speeds or slows but never reverses. Prices never go back down unless there’s recession. When the DC people talked about the economy being good they meant, in part, that inflation was fixed. We were back to 3%. The problem with that is it doesn’t bring down the price of anything. It only means that prices stopped jumping up so high compared to 2019.
So this idea that 2016 prices would return with Trump is based in a misunderstanding of economics. Prices don’t go back down.
In fact, like the COVID jump, I wouldn’t be surprised if the egg industry left prices up once the avian flu passes.
Joe Biden in office for four years: "I sleep"
Donald Trump in office for a week: "This is why your egg prices went up"
BlueMAGA is such a bleak turn for liberalism. We're abandoning any idea that federal policy might affect our material conditions. Presidents are just a panacea, an excuse to close our eyes and insist everything is actually great, right up until the election cycle breaks against us at which point its not our fault so we can acknowledge it again.
The only thing Democrats in leadership seem to have learned from movement conservatism is how to lie to their rank-and-file members. Now all we do is pass the buck from one failing administration to another, while asserting everything bad is caused by Wrong Party Backed By Evil Foreign Government.
No wonder the US is embracing genocidal fascism on a national scale.
I know the prez said he'd drop the price of groceries on day one, but he got a little sidetracked by his side project of destroying the country. But give him a few more weeks to get that done and then I'm sure he'll get right back to the groceries.
Oh no, grocery prices are this term's infrastructure week.
Groceries, the term he popularized that no one was using until he started saying it.
I used to buy those eggs at the bottom of the picture. They come with a newsletter inside about how the chickens are doing.
The cheap eggs now cost what those eggs used to cost.
Anecdote: My Trumpster in-laws could not stop yacking about "Biden's high eggs prices" just last month. Haven't heard a peep about the price of eggs since Trump came back. Now it's just "God's will."
Nows your chance to return the favour. Complain to her about how expensive eggs are now under Trump.
Nu-uh Fox and friends said it was DEI and wokeness causing eggs prices to soar.
I know it is fun to think about getting back at these people but it doesn't really work. They were never rational to begin with.
Weird: this is Safeway, Canada
(For readers, with the USD-CAD conversion they're closer to
$5$4)Hey Internet stranger, can I buy some of your eggs?
quick, before the orange clown adds tariffs 😆
This is from a Zehrs, it's Loblaws so not even remotely the cheapest place in town
With exchange, that pack of 30 organic eggs is ~11.90 USD. I usually just buy no name.
That's expensive. I live out in the boonies where things cost more and my local store is $4 a dozen.
Those are fancyish eggs too. I paid $3.69 yesterday for store brand and they are often on sale for a little less. Our avian flu situation isn't as bad yet though so it can still go up.
Yeah, these are specialty farm eggs, cage free, and brown. They’re also stacked in with the organic eggs. They probably command a markup without the price increases from bird flu. This is also probably some trendier grocery store OP is shopping at.
Our “fancy” grocery store has a dozen cage free large brown eggs for $5.49, so either this is a local issue in Denver or OP is posting some BS engagement bait.
What the heck happened to American eggs?
Even those Canadian eggs are relatively expensive to what I'm used to:
These are Euro prices.
What the heck happened to American eggs?
Denver is a special place, further its one city in a VERY large country and they don't cost anywhere NEAR that much in most places. I'm in the middle of Wyoming and 18 large eggs (Dozen and a half) cost $6.72. I can buy 18 Brown Cage Free Organic eggs (just like OPs) for 8.87.
Your monopoly money buys more eggs than our real money?! Now I've seen everything!
That's still high, assuming cad, but much better. It's around 6-8 'freedom' dollars down here is southern America.
Impossible, Orange Julius was fixing the prices. What is the hold up?
He should sign another eggsecutive order
It’s Hussein Obama eating all them eggs! Thanks Obama!
Must be the DEI chickens.
Couldn't have been, because that pompous dick Gaston eats the entire daily supply every morning to get jacked.
I can't believe buying chickens actually saved me money, I just did it because I wanted chickens. I expected to pay more per egg (considering food and litter) because I don't have economies of scale like the large producers do.
Bird flu sucks. Too bad the CDC can't warn us about it though.
Phew, are you OK over there? For comparison in Germany it's 2€ for 10 eggs, or 2,40€ for cage free. Eggs from the farmer start at 3,50€. In my area anyway.
They're fighting the bird flu
Jein. It's not as bad as OP makes it sound, and I've never seen a 10 let alone 12 organic eggs in Germany for 2€ but I also live in the city.
What you're looking at here look like organic (bio) eggs, likely from a very expensive bio-store. Typical prices for eggs in Denver for organic eggs are 7.49 for 12 or .62¢ a egg at a store comparable to REWE. - Non-bio eggs get down to 4.99 on sale for 12 or .41 an egg.
Here at my REWE in Köln organic eggs are 3.39 for 10 or .33 an egg. So they are actually only twice the price for organic which is due to the killing of millions of chickens because of bird flue.
Wow. I saw people mentioning this on another thread and I posted that we can get 15 Medium Free Range Eggs in the UK for $3.37. Could find cheaper than that if I shopped around.
It is a banana! How much could it cost? $10?
It's a dozen eggs, Michael. How much could it cost, $10?
In Colorado stores must sell cage-free eggs now. The law just went into effect.
https://ag.colorado.gov/press-release/all-eggs-sold-in-colorado-starting-in-2025-will-be-cage-free
I was wondering why they were the only option, figured they were just the ones not hit by bird flu
Hate to be that person, but now that they know people are willing to pay it- it’s probably not going to ever go back down.
Yeah, like reducing tax businesses have to pay won't make prices cheaper, they'll just pocket the cash.
In hawaii we cant get eggs at all for the past week or two-- or even those milk carton pints of liquid eggs. I was told at the foodland today to come at 5am tomorrow when the doors open and theres always just a few boxes. So.. I guess I get up at 430 tomorrow. Then elbow the old ladies -- or whatever I need to do to get to the eggs first.
They are mean and have canes but they can't take a punch and I can run to the egg aisle first.
Out here fighting for eggs like scalpers fighting for RTX 5090s.
This sounds like the stories my grandma told me about the GDR. They also had to get up early to get basic necessities, otherwise they were gone.
you be nice to dem auntie
Just grab one of the chicken's running around on the island and jam it in a cage. Free eggs
Let's Go Trump!
Thanks, Obama!
Kinda irrelevant, but get fucked Eggslut. Worst place to work for, owners are a bunch of liars and have terrible management practices. This is absolutely killing them and I love that for them.
Well that fucking sucks
Ate at 2 in Japan and loved it, asked for whipped cream on my pancakes and the dude very seriously emptied an entire can while staring at me. I tried to stop him, he did not listen
Generally, the staff and vibes are cool. I met some great people working there. They like to put up that front that they're trying to be cool and edgy. I was a cook for a long time at that point and flipping eggs isn't exactly hard or special, but they made it this big ordeal, which is fine but you can't look me in the face and tell me that what we're doing here is a culinary feat.
With me, I worked at their GCM location in L.A. and they were opening up a new spot in Glendale. They asked me to help open up the store under the stupilation that if I worked for so long and did 'X' things, I would get a promotion. When it came time for the raise and I had completed what they asked of me, I was constantly told it would happen, but they would give me the run around. Until finally someone else in the store was eligible as well, so instead of just giving us both the position they made us do a 'cook off' and when me and the other persons food came back exactly alike and they couldn't discriminate the begrudgingly gave me a portion of what they promised.
I cooked for them well, did what they asked of me, and came in on time so they couldn't fire me unless they wanted to pay me unemployment or maybe have me file a fucking lawsuit for unlawful termination. I just didn't play ball with their bullshit and didn't let them walk over me because they left such a bad taste in my mouth with my inital (verbal) offer being essentially reneged upon and they didn't like that at all. So they just made my job hell until I left. L.A. was hands down the worst place to cook. I'm sure there are a lot of opportunities there for people, but man if you aren't taken advantage of at every turn...
Oh, also. When L.A. raised their minimum wage, the store in Glendale didn't get the raise because it wasn't in L.A. and the whole store went on strike because of it. Don't know what happened with it. I just heard it second hand from an old coworker.
These fuckers are opening places all over THE WORLD and they nickle and dime their employees and generally treat them like shit. Fuck Jaime, and all of the owners (they were nice in person but they pulled the strings to make our lives hell).
Edit: forgot to say, glad you enjoyed your pancakes ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ
I was wondering how many of my Denver neighbors were on lemmy. This is not the way I wanted to find them...
Sorry to disappoint, i'm not from Denver. I stole the image from reddit. https://old.reddit.com/r/FluentInFinance/comments/1ibgmua/today_in_denver_1099_for_one_dozen_eggs_eggs_used/
Howdy! Denverish over here.
What's the thing with eggs in the US ?
The prices are caused by inflation, massive cullings of infected hens with bird flu, and just the area you live in. Where I'm at, eggs are $4.50 USD/dozen at the moment. They've been higher though.
Those eggs specifically look to be "cage-free", which increases their price by a little bit.
Colorado law only allows for cage free eggs as of January 1st of this year and had mostly already been all that's available here prior to this bird flu epidemic for maybe 6ish months and prices were not increased significantly as a result.
Regardless, this picture represents an extreme and not the least expensive eggs available at this particular store.
Yep I'm near Delaware so we have all the chicken farms at least near us. And our eggs are $4.5 for a dozen.
We got cage free organic at 6.19/dozen here in Ohio. This seems a localized high
They’re $8.75 for 12 at Aldi in CA. Or if you’re a real saver, 60 for under $45!
Wonder how long this has to keep up for more products to start becoming accidentally vegan due to having to avoid eggs as they're too volatile.
Everyone trying to call bullshit, but my local discount market is selling eggs for $10.99 a dozen too. Not organic. Probably not even free range. Just the same cheap eggs as usual, but 3x the price.
Conservatives don't care. They'll go into debt for Daddy Trump. That's what cultists do for a cult leader.
As someone who grew up in the Denver area, here is some additional context. King Soopers is the grocery store that most people go to(Kroger owned). The Kroger brand eggs are the cheapest they offer and in the city they are $7.89 a dozen. In the suburbs $7.39. Downtown supermarkets are always a little more expensive. There are some egg brands priced at $10.99 and higher but the cheapest ones are still getting really expensive. And that's if they aren't sold out due to the shortage.
In Colorado Springs, I'm seeing Eggland's Best at $6.29 and Simple Truth "Kipster Large" eggs currently on sale at $4.99 per dozen, respectively, at King Soopers.
While these prices are certainly high compared to what we're used to, it's definitely not been nearly as outrageous as what I'm seeing online.
I can't imagine the prices and selection are actually significantly different at the same chain an hour away in Denver.
Wouldn't it be great if this was the impetus for people going back to raising animals and growing some of their food for themselves? Almost everyone has room for a garden, even if it's just a window sill for some fresh herbs. And raising even some of your own food can save you a ton of money.
Or you can take advantage of the rising egg prices to sell them for $9.99/dozen to your neighbors, whatever. Be the neighborhood eggpin. Lead your own fowl empire to dominance over the local Whole Foods.
I do this, but I swear I spend so much on potting soil, and containers (though now that I have enough that cost is taken care of) that I'm not sure it's saving me anything. I'd love to plant into the ground but I've got hard soil so I'd have to rent a tiller and amend the soil for ages, which is also an additional cost. Still planning on planting tons of potatoes, various tomatoes, and an herb garden this spring. It's an enjoyable hobby, but it is just that; a hobby. Those tend to be expensive, at least the ones I choose.
I spend so much on potting soil
you'd think it would be dirt cheap
I'm pretty lucky where I live, my house used to be on the side of a lake, and the soil is very soft and easy to dig into. I've got a tiller attachment for my weed trimmer that I use to till the soil in the spring.
But even if you don't have good soil, you can still set up a hydroponics bay with whatever space you have available. It's not too expensive to get started either. Probably less than you'll spend on eggs these days. 😂
Why not start with what you got and improve the quality over time as you can, rather than hope for maximum efficiency setup from scratch. Like maybe rent the tiller and just see what grows with the soil as is? Then compost and fertilize.
Like change the parameters of the game. See how much you can do with as little money as possible. It might be less time efficient, but more cash efficient, if that's what you care about.
Remember it's YOUR, hobby, you make the rules of the game, then play it.
Then you will need to hire armed security guards to keep folks from stealing your eggs.
My gf is getting us chickens this year.
Lots of luck with getting chickens this year. You know they come from eggs and EVERYBODY will be thinking the same thing. There will be riots at the Rural Kings.
It is getting popular to do stuff like that. Most people I know have at least one or two half dead herb plants on their windowsill.
Most groceries here don’t post prices online, but …..
Boston Metro West - Amazon Fresh eggs from “Whole Foods”, not the cheapest grocery, $4.49/doz grade a large brown. My regular grocery is much cheaper than “Whole Paycheck” for most things.
No taxes on food here, although Amazon Fresh has a delivery charge.
I imagine the huge disparity of prices is that culling due to bird flu must be regional and our chickens must not be infected yet
It is definitely regional culling or outright infection and death of the birds. It jumped to a human in Louisiana. It killed him.
Edit: I'm reading from CDC now and my info is old. There have been 61 reported cases that were not as serious. This might be another big one folks, with the entire government controlled by people who don't believe in settled science.
Yeah, these are specialty farm eggs, cage free, and brown. They’re also stacked in with the organic eggs. They probably command a markup without the price increases from bird flu. This is also *probably* some trendier grocery store OP is shopping at.
Our “fancy” grocery store has a dozen cage free large brown eggs for $5.49, so either this is a local issue in Denver or OP is posting some BS engagement bait.
Just snapped this pic from our store’s online shopping app.
I'm in Denver as well, you can't find regular eggs in stock. The only thing I can find is the cage-free/brown egg stuff. So this price isn't too far off (especially for King Soopers (Kroger). I've seen price tags for as low as $5.50, but never in stock (this was at Trader Joe's).
I go to a local grocery store, end of last year a dozen eggs could be had on special (pretty regularly) for $1. I spent $4.50 for a half-dozen on sale... ($9/dozen). It came with a card that said Jubilant Julie is the bird of the month, LMAO. This was the cheapest option, including sold-out stuff.
My recommendation to OP is stop shopping at King Soopers and Safeway. Shop around, try out Sprouts, Trader Joe's, Target, etc. Or, better yet, find a local grocery store (Brother's Market, Max Market, Clark's Market, Sun Market, Syracuse Market to name a few). Not only will it probably be a better product for the same/less price, but you'll support a local business and you won't have to wait in line for 10+ soul-crushing minutes.
Isn’t Kroger the one that got in trouble for “surge pricing”? Basically corporate whitewashing of price gouging. They also switched to e-price tags that would let them more quickly change prices.
Edit: yes those greedy f’ks did price gouge.
You are both posting anecdotes, essentially.
No, this is objective, not a “story”. At this time these are the actual prices for the eggs at my location at a store with historically higher prices. I qualified my assertion with facts. If you want, I will dig up more egg prices to create an unscientific average to prove that egg prices are not insane here. However, OP has offered no qualifications for the store or the farm. That’s a “story” left up to the reader to infer all egg prices are high in Denver.
As a matter of fact, here you go:
Local Price Chopper:
Local ShopRite:
I’m sure I could find expensive eggs for engagement bait.
Your post prompted me to check -- at the "fancy" grocery store in town, I can get a dozen eggs for about $5. Same price at Aldi. Looking at Target, it's about $4.20.
Wait, what? I usually expect Target to be more expensive than other options in the area! Strange times.
Egg colour is down to genetics - some breeds, eg leghorn, lay white eggs. Others lay various shades of brown. It's what's inside that counts, and that depends a lot on what you feed a chicken.
Where I live, a city in the PNW, Fred Meyer (Kroger) cheap ass eggs are around $7. $7.50 at Safeway. Even Winco and Trader Joe's eggs are around $5/6 a dozen.
I'm not sure where you live, but I'm guessing it's less densely populated or has easier access to diary farms.
Or you shop online for food, which, no, I'm not doing that.
The latter. Nobody ever posts the store brand eggs and talks price about those.
They will have security tags in them soon
Come on, it's only 92 cents apiece. It was $6.99 for two dozen under Biden. Do the math folks.
They're $7/dozen here, but Aldi has cruelty guaranteed eggs for $2.77, limit 2 dozen. I don't have Aldi near me but was at one within the last week.
Aldi has cruelty guaranteed eggs
Uh...
Even worse when you consider this is without tax and the compareisons are made to prices without tax. To be fair the rest of the world doesn't threat their eggs so they need to be refrigerated like these US eggs need to be, which also costs money.
Food is not taxed in the US. At least in my state.
That is not the norm.I was wrong. 18 states tax [groceries](https://youtu.be/n9yBXi-ytwM r ).
Prob NSFW link
new innovation in capitalism! 4-pack of eggs. costs what a dozen used to
They're cage free/organic. Those are always more expensive.
Not organic, and cage free < free range < pasture raised
... < just not eating eggs
cage free is better than nothing, but if it were organic it would say so and not just cage free I suspect. I'm not even sure they're free-range, maybe they're just all in a barn with no access to outside fields?
even if they were ecological, to me that seems expensive
People eating caged eggs in 2025??
Yeah. Complaining about the cost of top shelf eggs is kinda disingenuous.
I don't know what cage free means but I do know it's marketing speak designed to tempt me away from free range. Not buying it.
no, it's an actual term. 1-1.5 sqr feet per hen in the egg-laying facility https://leg.colorado.gov/bills/HB20-1343
And if you are an independent egg vendor you have to submit a 1099 form with your taxes. Coincidence?
Wow, food in Germany is indeed cheap.
Current prices: 0,34€ per egg for organic eggs, 0,20€ per egg for a lower grade (Bodenhaltung)
Got a 18 pack from Penny the other day for about 3 or 4 euro. Only thing I miss about American grocery stores are the variety but fuck all that if you can't afford the majority of it
We’re only talking eggs here, this is not an indicator of general inflation.
We had that too so prices are higher over say five years, but as far as I know, general inflation is under control. The biggest problem there is all the price increases blamed on “global supply chain disruption” from a couple years back: why haven’t they gone away since the disruption has?
Just over the border in Switzerland I've got 0,79€ per egg (0,75€ pr egg in a 12 pack). But that's still cheaper than OP.
It'll be even more soon...
$4-6/doz in NC.
The cheapest I can find atm are 2.1 euros for a 12 pack of store brand eggs, 0.175 per egg. Eu.
Edit to add: imo the only relevant comparison is comparing the cheapest with the cheapest available chicken eggs. If you add in branding, location, ... Then you're no longer comparing eggs, but rather cost of living & marketing.
2nd edit: perchery, medium size.
The cheapest available option can differ a lot due to different animal welfare regulations. Caged eggs are the cheapest but they already are or will soon be unavailable in Europe and a few states in America.
The second cheapest is perchery eggs, which is probably available everywhere, so it'd be better fora direct comparison even if the specific regulations differ somewhat.
Caged is already no longer available where I live, so the price I gave is for perchery eggs, medium sized. I would have added that it was for perchery, but I only learned that word 5 minutes ago from your post ;). In the last few years when caged eggs were available, a 6 pack of perchery eggs usually was the same or almost the same price as caged. I remember the price difference being so insignificant that I always bought perchery.
But there's bound to be so many regulatory differences, that probably even the perchery label will have different rules. And some of those labels are pretty empty. So imo for a simple comparison, it's still best to just compare cheapest with cheapest of the same size and ignore labelling/marketing.
Looks like I need to fly out to Denver to save some money on eggs.
Y'all need "I did that" Trump stickers like the ones that were put next to gas pumps with Biden
I just paid like $11 for 18 in the bay area and I thought that was bad. Good thing Trump has a concept of a plan to take care of us soon tho.
But those come with a free cage, that's extra value!
Time to start raising chickens.
FYI eggs from backyard chickens have a higher level of lead in them. On account of cities being polluted with leaded gasoline for decades. Fun times.
Unleaded gas became standard in the 70s. If you live in a dense city that was built 40+ years ago and eat eggs daily and are a small child, you may reach the non-recomended intake amount, barely.
Most people with a backyard big enough for chickens don't live in the urban areas that had such dense lead exposure anyways
Already started. We have a coop about ready, my wife has experience, we're semi-rural, about set. Only thing, I want them free range and I'm not sure about the wildlife.
Haven't seen a fox in ages. The local coyotes don't come in here, yet, but a massive new development is pushing them out of their comfort zone. Plenty of raptors it seems. But hell, I can afford everything but a ton of fencing, of any kind.
What to do? Just run out with the 20-gauge and start blasting at 3AM when shit goes sideways?!
I need to post on the chicken comm.
My primary plan is to hatch extra and expect some losses. Wildlife needs to eat, too, and I can’t fault it for doing so, even if it’s inconvenient for me.
However I’ll also employ roosters, which are annoying but do great protecting the flock (even sacrificing themselves to save their ladies). If you can’t/won’t have roosters for whatever reason, a couple geese will help as well, or you can add them to the roostered flock for extra protection, I believe.
Personally, the only way I’d ever shoot something going after my flock would be if it’s a threat to the enclosed run/coop where they stay at night and in bad weather. Or if they were habitual about raiding my flock.
But chickens should be in a coop at night so as long as you have one critters can’t get into, you probably won’t have too many losses.
Peacocks can chase off predators.
Bird flu is still an issue
...
God i love having chickens
You should put maga stickers next to the price tag, just to remind the folks :)
People need to start putting trump "I did this" stickers on everything like the magats were on gas pumps.
I’m finding 18 for $9. Discount groceries. Not Walmart, that place is more expensive post 2020 than dedicated discount grocery stores.
Even so. Eggs priced like meat is going to cause a lot of protein malnutrition going forward.
Raw milk will fix that ;)
Good! (Said with a condescending vegan tone.)
Eventually it becomes cheaper to raise chickens.
As long as MAGA doesn't blame Trump or the corporations directly then those corporations will continue to raise prices because higher profits are in their best interest.
$4 a dozen in Kentucky.
Closing in on a buck an egg.
That's normal price in my country.
So in the 🇺🇸 instead of rings people now use eggs to propose to someone ?
may I offer you an 🥚, in this trying time?
Oh thank you 😍
So a dollar more than a banana
How much can it cost, Michael?
Shame about that flu thing innit
Should have gotten the small caged eggs.
Can't. Eggs have to be cage free in CO since January 1st. The law passed 2 years ago, so of course egg companies are acting like they couldn't possibly have prepared for it to take effect. The plus side (for me and like 5 other people) is that this makes the vegan egg alternative seem WAY more reasonably priced these days.
Its such a too-little too-late maneuver. If closed coops hadn't been these giant petri dishes for disease over the last thirty years, maybe we wouldn't have mutated a strain of H5N1 that was so virulent. Now we're switching to free range just in time for our sickened flocks to infect the wild migratory fowl that pass through.
Only thing to do is... checks latest EO... defund all public health and safety measures against infection and transmission.
I was not being serious.
12.99 at my tourist town in CA
I am afraid to ask the price of the Vital Farms eggs.
PS: $6.49 in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
Today, I paid $7.79 for a dozen, extra large, white, store brand eggs here in New Jersey.
peasant food going on elite cuisine?
You can get 18 eggs for that much in Chicagoland.
"Sorry for the inconvenience"
Wow, translated to NZD that is that is like $19.50. Current egg prices here are $5 for size 6 and around $6.50 for size 7.
Your chickens need to support their weed habit somehow...
Chicken shit.
I brought some yesterday for 3 dollars
Eggs are now 33$ in Denver guys!!
Na... Just kidding... We don't do click bait here. And eggs aren't really 10$ a dozen most anywhere.
Cage free eggs are already some of the most expensive eggs anyway.
