Ok so, i understand that it’s way more than it used to be but… Is $10 for a dosen really THAT bad? Are People using eggs literally every meal or something? I LITERALLY heard someone complaining about this while grabbing some at costco. Like genuinely upset and acting like they can never have eggs again while they have a cart easily pushing $400 of stuff not all of which is food.
I feel like everyone is strangely focused on eggs when there are way worse things going through the roof
Eggs WERE one of the cheapest sources of protein available, so a lot of people depended on them since meat was so expensive. Now even that is taken from us.
I quit eating eggs in late 2018. At the time, a dozen eggs were well south of $2. I don’t think prices increased much until COVID hit. So that’s ~$2 to ~$10 in five years. Given that eggs and milk are staple foods, I can see why people would be highly concerned.

Yes and yes. I buy them from a farm, they’re cheap and delicious. I have eggs for breakfast and I have eggs as a snack in the evening
