A dozen eggs costs over $6 still. This is after the industry was called out for gouging 15-20 years ago AND after the bird flu panic raised prices a year or 2 ago (that was found to be BS too). He ain’t gonna do anything. He is another “chump block” for big biz, but at least he’s not Trump. I’m so tired of all this
Might be the store you shop at is to blame. I can get a dozen cage free eggs for $2.49 at my local Safeway. I feel like some stores just refused to lower their prices back down after that bird flu panic. They’re all greedy, some just greedier than others.
That’s crazy. I was happy to buy Aldi’s eggs for $1.29/dozen, and I searched the brand. The results are so disgusting, I understand now that I most hard-boil or hard-scramble them or risk illness. I guess eggs are on their way out because I’m not paying that. Maybe firm tofu for protein.
I grew up in Chicago area. Out of curiosity, I looked it up on the Jewel Osco website and a dozen normal eggs is 2 bucks a dozen, currently on sale for $1.79.
I live in the middle of Wyoming and an 18 pack of eggs is only $3.48 at Walmart. I dunno what HCOL area you’re in or what kind of fancy stores you visit but eggs costing 50 cents each isn’t the norm.

People shop at the stores available, to which they can travel.

Jewel and Mariano’s both have the cheapest eggs at or under $2.50. I get the ones that are supposedly more humane and for $5 though.
