Eggs at $10.00/dozen. The immeasurable evil power of Hunter Biden's laptop is shown again.
Just y'all wait until til an EF5 tornado flattens Tulsa. It'll be Jimmy Carter's doing from the great beyond.
Dave. I just referenced that. I 100% support you. The idiots who are crying, 1. Don't probably even eat there. 2. Don't know how you fed those in need for free during covid. You are the best. Let them eat somewhere else.
So they are overcharging. Eggs, at most are $8 per dozen. $18 for 5 dozen at Costco. So they are charging extra $12. Corporate greed once again taking advantage of a bad situation. @stephruhle.bsky.social continued denial of corporate greed not withstanding 🤬
Not for nothing but consider this? We pay sports athletes and others exorbitant salaries, why not pay good money for nutrient dense items like eggs, milk and other staples? After all aren’t we trying to be a healthier nation?
Not everyone can afford these prices
Imagine if you are earning the minimum wage of $7.25 an hour
You would have to work 2 hours for a dozen eggs
This does not take into consideration housing, transportation, health, clothing, entertainment, dreams for the future …
Egg prices are influenced by the bird flu. The huge egg farms with dense populations lend themselves to the mass spread and then mass slaughter of birds.
But, every other food price is still up but MAGA has turned their back it seems.
“…day-one prices will drop…”
Who would have thought that decades of anti-intellectualism and education sabotage would result in an electorate vulnerable to magical thinking? 😂
Of all the stunts and blunders, it's going to be the eggs that bring Trump down. People don't understand the economics of a budget deficit and a trade deficit not being the same thing, but they understand breakfast.
And with his administration ordering the CDC not to report on the avian flu outbreaks (and breakthrough human cases), they have no idea why the prices are continuing to go up.
Yesterday someone asked me, since the price of eggs is so high because of bird flu why isn’t the price of chicken going way up? I didn’t have an answer for that. Anyone?
It's a good thing that while I love eggs, I don't eat them all that much. I can't remember the last time I even had any in my fridge. I'm more worried about toilet paper shortages when Scrump's tariffs against Canada go into effect.
My husband went to buy chicks yesterday and the line in the morning was 20ppl deep. Went back in the afternoon and there were more people. I’m wondering how many of these people know how to care for chickens…..
Honestly, and hopefully it is temporary, I would rather they had a surcharge than just raise the general price. Surcharges can be removed. Once general prices go up it is extremely hard to get them to come back down.
It sucks but if they are going to do it this is the best way.
That thought occurred to me while I was out walking the dog. Horror struck. And, it is exactly what you said....they know nothing about raising chickens. I suddenly envisioned the thousands of people getting a few chicks and giving it a go.

That's a steep increase! 😱 How much are eggs in NYC? How's the availability there? I know we're supposed to joke and point and laugh, but damn that's crazy!
The only eggs listed on the Target app in my town in NY, were the Eggland ones for the same price you showed. The Wegmans store is literally across the street.
A diner here in COMO is doing 50c per egg. This man fed people for free during the pandemic. Most are supportive, but a few MAGA idiots are up in arms. Let them eat elsewhere, it's their choice.
Perfectly expected. Millions of chickens killed for over a year now. The supply pipe is low. This is how it works. With gas, with grain, with silicon chips. Everything
A shortage that only exists in the US. Because most of our animal ag practices are banned everywhere else with good reason. Most eggs are produced by chickens crammed together in tiny cages they can't move in to make the least nutritious most unhappy chicken eggs imaginable.
Big Ag comes in and they don't GAF about the livestock, they couldn't care less about the people, all they care about is the money. So they have people sitting up in offices 24 hrs a day thinking up new ways to "add value" for shareholders instead of perfecting their practices for the good of all.
that's what I thought, and i know that I have not had to pay $12 for a dozen eggs (yet), but I hear that is happening in some places.
So I don't know. I know I have seen some prices going up far beyond the inflation rate and believe these are decided by greed monsters capitalizing on the moment.
Let's say there are 2 eggs per menu item or $0.50 per egg. That's $6 per dozen....EXTRA that they say they're paying and that they need to get whole. I'm paying $4.90 per dozen and that's retail.. This is opportunistic price-gouging and they should be boycotted.
Olive oil has been increasing in price for a while. I believe I read months ago that it is due to climate change and areas not producing olives as abundantly.
Wait, wasn’t the Orange Gargoyle supposed to take care of this? My guess is those who voted for evil would still do so today despite the unprecedented prices for eggs!
The difference, we understand. We understand a president can't control the bird flu, which has been an issue for a while now. We understand that a president doesn't set food prices or oil. Your guy fed you all a line of bullshit for votes, now saying it will be hard to bring down prices. 😆
The past president was busy cleaning up Trumps disastrous effect on the economy. Can't wait to see you all cry when you don't have social security Medicare and can't afford healthcare. You are all delusional.
We know egg prices have nothing to do with Trump just like you and I both know egg prices had nothing to do with Biden; however, playing the egg price game was established by the Trump followers and we are now forced to play by those rules.
I’d say you’d have a point if Trump hadn’t immediately blocked information shared to the public from health officials during the reason for the egg shortage. Why should the general public be aware of the reason for the status of their eggs OR health crisis though, right?
People: You can bake and cook without using eggs. Stores can do this too. Ask for products baked without eggs! Start asking, be the difference! 💪🏽✊🏽 You got this!
This is understandable and not overly excessive. The one's charging per egg on the other hand...especially the receipt I saw a pic of where they charged $1.99 per egg surcharge.
The price of - dozen basic white large eggs is $6.95. Charging $12 above that as an added fee when you are already covering most of the cost plus profit is highway robbery.
Trump working more of his economic magic. The same way he magically turned the Federal Aviation Administration into Air Disasters 'R Us -- and turned around and blamed black people for it.🙄
I don't understand the point of this sign. Why even add an upcharge? Just raise the price, businesses raise prices all the time without needing to make a statement about it.
How will people come out of the other side of this? We already cannot afford the cost of basic products. Everything keeps going up, what is the end game? Mass starvation people newly homeless etc.
Eggs aren’t that much. I’ve seen eggs literally coast to coast the last week and unless you’re buying the multi colored fancy backyard chicken eggs you can get regular old eggs from the inhumane egg factory for about $3-$4.
Drumpf was the one saying that he was gonna lower cost, facts don't matter. He ran on it, his moronic minions believed it even though we knew bird flu was happening. But yes you blame Trump just like every president gets the blame for shit that happens under them.
I thought the same, but I read this story today and I don’t know, it may not be totally out of line.
Restaurants have such tight profit margins to begin with, maybe it’s justified?

Can we get Mexico 🇲🇽 to pay for our eggs?

It’s hilarious. But also sad. And infuriating.
That’s us with the Gulf of Santa.

Just y'all wait until til an EF5 tornado flattens Tulsa. It'll be Jimmy Carter's doing from the great beyond.

Ps no relation to the other leaf
lol to the no relation part.
It is now believable that the Orange asshole is saying it because that is not what she was going on about before the election.
They thought Biden was pushing the high egg price button too much. It is like a Jewish space laser, just not as fun
But, every other food price is still up but MAGA has turned their back it seems.

They need to go in & click a box
Spell-check, anyone?
DON'T PAY TAXES TO THIEVES WHO DON'T PAY TAXES.
Buckle up. Mother Nature is gonna do her thing.
Or hadn't basically told us all to frig off ....
I would add "TRUMP DID THIS".
If you make ones they say Trump did this, I’ll buy them.😎

Bertolli Olive Oil is $23.99😳
It’s like Covid, all over again.

We know it. You know too.
Biden couldn’t control egg prices, Trump can’t control egg prices & he knew it
Trump LIED
People who believed his asinine buffoonery need to reassess
Eggs
$1.99 election week
$4.99 this week

One thing's for sure, that fucker is very racist!
I'm talking about you Dr Kenneth, you racist fuck
Bring in chickens from other nations?
Or just wait a few months for the population to recover?
We are looking for solutions, not just people gawking at the crash on the side of the road.
Because you know $10 billion extra in profits WAS NEVER inflation.

I got eggs in Southern California for 499 a dozen at a local grocery store
Just smaller
