takes picture of empty shelves
This is what America would look like if Kamala was voted in!

- some MAGA idiot who can’t grasp the irony
I made my daughter scrambled eggs for dinner tonight. They cost an eye-watering £0.23 each. I might have to take out a loan.
I’m out in the boonies at the moment and the last market I passed had a 6-pack of eggs for $6.40.
Those kinds of prices demand a fascist coup
Well then, I’ve got good news for you.
A bit under 5 CAD for a dozen at my usual grocery (29 US cents per egg). Maybe that’s why Americans want to invade us.
Trump already has a reputation for grabbing by the pussy - now he’s going straight for the ovaries.
No eggs are safe.
$3.93 at the nearby No Frills. That converts to about $2.75 USD I think?
I just got back from a trip to California and the first thing I did was order a fried egg sandwich at the Sunset Grill. Oh man, that was sweet bliss! It’s good to be home.
Schweig
Last I checked my closest store is at $0.65 USD an egg. Shit’s getting wild

Sounds reasonable. People don’t need more eggs than they did before and could probably do with a fewer. Hoarding them hurts everyone.
I’m not sure there’s much hoarding. They still have a relatively short shelf life. Although I will admit that this tips the scales a bit to convince people to buy eggs when they aren’t sure they’ll need them.
A bigger demand is going to come from food service. A lot of small restaurants need eggs, e.g. for anything battered. These places aren’t big enough for Sysco, and certainly not big enough for assurances on availability. They often use suppliers like Gordon Foods, Costco, and even retail options like Aldi and Walmart.
While even a large family doesn’t need more than a couple dozen eggs per week, small restaurants purchase eggs by the hundreds.
Every grocery store I go to has eggs on the shelves. Are there just some places where people are panic-buying all the eggs?
Toilet paper all over again
I just figured out an excellent tiramisu recipe… which calls for 6 egg yolks. Looks like I’ll be saving up for a few paychecks before I can attempt it.
My local QFC and Safeway have them for $7. Trader Joe’s had them for $3.50. We’ll they did at some point. All I saw were empty shelves.
All the MAGA Republicans seem to be experts on bird flu and supply and demand now but blamed Biden for egg prices being high when they were half the price they are now.
I made some Ramen the other night, I wasn’t thinking and used the last 2 eggs in addition to other ingredients. I then realized I had just made the most expensive Ramen known to man.
My sincere apologies
A dozen eggs per customer per day is hardly a limit. How many can one family eat?
A few local markets near me are limiting hedges to two boxes per person as well.
