But a dozen brown, large, grade A eggs can be had for less than $5.
I don’t think it’s all about the bird flu, some mark ups are definitely greed. Today I was at a target, eggs priced 9 dollars for a dozen low quality eggs. Ralph’s (West Coast Kroger’s) priced them at 9 also. However, a day ago I was also at a Sprouts and a Trader Joe’s, and the going rates were 4 dollars (although TJ was sold out). Hell, Sprout’s much tastier Pasture raised eggs were like, 8 bucks, although those birds are likely the least likely to get infected.
The thing that killed me is at Target in saw a very ill informed woman buying two 18 packs of crap white eggs for what I can only imagine cost her a second mortgage. Please shop responsibly, y’all.
Yep! These fucking monopolistic capitalist pigs have used every single fucking disaster as an opportunity to price gouge us and they have no intention of stopping.
What are you gonna do? Stop eating food?
Stopping eating eggs is pretty simple tbf
Yeah because only egg prices are going up
