Love how everyone blames trump for this when egg prices were way up before he was in office.
Good! (Said with a condescending vegan tone.)
They’re $8.75 for 12 at Aldi in CA. Or if you’re a real saver, 60 for under $45!
8.75/12 = $0.73 per egg.
45/60 = $0.75 per egg.
Incredible! With bulk purchasing, I can pay an extra $0.02 per egg.
Jesus that's a huge difference in the Aldi price nearest me (about an hour by car).
Yeah, you know shit is fucked when eggs are over $8/dozen at Aldi!
In Australia they're not available at all. This is at Woolworths supermarket:
12.99 at my tourist town in CA
$4 a dozen in Kentucky.
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 ;)
Closing in on a buck an egg.
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.
I am afraid to ask the price of the Vital Farms eggs.
PS: $6.49 in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
Its just packaged chicken cum. No big deal.
I was aware the USA has some educational troubles, but either you are trolling or joking or these troubles are much more serious than I anticipated.
Yeah dude
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.
Chicken shit.
