    It’s because for the longest time, eggs were the cheapest and fastest way to get protein into your body. Especially compared to the cost of meat. But now, because of inflation, everyone is trying to be more frugal which just jacks the price of those goods and makes us all suffer more.

      Also, eggs are in a ton of recipes.

        That’s the real conspiracy right there.

            If it is just a single egg, you can often just remove it and be ok. With two eggs add a bit more flour (banana also works but alters taste). More than that and no idea.

            At least that is what my fiancée says
