I’m in PEI Canada. I’m getting eggs from a small local farm for $5 a dozen. I could probably get them cheaper but I like supporting the farm and the eggs are probably fresh enough to hatch.
It really needs to say, “I did that!”
They won’t care that Trump hasn’t done anything to fix the price of eggs, because they’re too busy being reeled along by whatever the next thing is that right-wing media is telling them to be angry about.
It’s the Archer method of drinking, but for societal awareness - keep the people fighting over pointless stuff and they’ll never have time to reflect on the things they should be angry about.
Don’t worry, his stupid fucking idiot dumbass cult fascist fans will make up something really fucking stupid as an argument.
It’s Brandon’s fault.
He should’ve laid more eggs.
Buttery males.
No. They’ll wait for Shapiro or Beck or Fox to tell them why and then repeat that statement to death without fact checking it.
What I’d like to know is where to find this image and possibly one of Elon as well. Asking for a friend.
I’m in Europe and pay nearly €4 for 6 grade 0 eggs, have done for ages. These say free range, so I guess equivalent to grade 1? This is obviously slightly more expensive but not by crazy amounts - were eggs there that much cheaper before?
I used to be able to buy 5 DOZEN eggs for $10 at Sam’s Club
The brand in the image typically sold for about $6 a dozen last year. In a number of cases the prices have risen 50-100% in the last month
In the US, back in 2023, a dozen eggs at Aldi cost $1.35. Before all the bird flu/inflation/corporate greed I would frequently see them for .79 a dozen.
When I was there 2 weeks ago they were going for $5.65
.79 a dozen sounds mad, that’s gotta be battery hens :/
That’s insane. Sounds like your egg prices were being artificially kept low.
They would crowd them in cages and pump them full of antibiotics so they wouldn’t get sick. When there’s a disease that the medicine doesn’t fix, they need to kill the herds and rebuild… which leaves us where we are now.
Nope, we just have an abundance of eggs. Plus the fed buys a large amount for vaccines(now that trumps in power. I doubt that’s still happening)
Yep, that jives with my experience too (southeastern US).
Am in Europe, that’s expensive as hell for eggs.
3.49€ for 6 grade A bio regional eggs in Germany. From an expensive inner city supermarket though. Cheapest looks like 2.79€ for 10 non-bio but still grade A eggs. Price varies but not so far off what the other guy said.
Then again, Germany can be quite expensive, I expect it’s cheaper elsewhere.
For comparison, I just went to a site that aggregates stuff from small farmers. It’s usually more expensive because of that (farm to table?) 10 eggs, free range (they apparently also have a youtube channel / stream of the chickens) - 4 Euro. Fed carrots, corn, wheat, etc. We get deals from our friends for less than that too.
In Cyprus in fairness, small island economy 😁
That’s expensive, although I’ve never seen the grade system before. A 12 pack of comparable large grade A eggs in the UK is around 4.50 GBP.
I was thinking about this when shopping last week. Went to lift 6 eggs, Saw they were like £2 and thought “clearly just an American thing at the minute”
