I haven’t looked at egg prices in over five years. Are they getting more expensive?
I hope they get so expensive that no one buys them anymore.
A little more expensive, no biggie.
My cholesterol is super high, so it’s been an excuse to drop them from my diet for a couple months.
Was this article about you?
Oh hell no! I’m a vegetarian because I hate animals. I heard about that guy, literal butter fingers.
?? !
OTOH I love animals and I eat them so…
there were no eggs. i ran to walfart last night. none. zero. im sure kroger might have some
Like eggs, but I can live without.
In Europe tho price off eggs are still stable. Even if they rise I live rural so I know some local egg producers so I’ll always have access to cheap eggs.
They more or less cost the same as before.
But I’m also not from the US
The cumulative price increases are noticeable. Grocery receipts feel like they are $25-50 more expensive for the same stuff.
We buy a dozen eggs every other week, so that specifically isn’t impacting us much, but in the store I usually take note, and say damn under my breath when I see the $7+ ones.
Why is eggs being made into such a huge issue?

Not eggs specifically but the price of food is out of hand.
I stock up when I see them at a reasonable price. They’ll last a few weeks.
They should last for at least 6 weeks in the fridge!
“Last”. Yes. In practice, I found eggs in a fridge age by weeks. I would still call them “fresh” within a week. After that, they don’t taste as well. Another week after that, visual changes happen on the shell. I can see as if the fluid inside is “breaching” the membrane thus dark spots on the outside. This is the last stage I would still be willing to consume them. After that I would throw them away.
I really like eggs, but I walk to my grocery store and back, and often bump the fuck outta whatever I buy. After the first accident, I’ve not bought eggs in a real long while.
I think buying Eggs is Illegal. (Bad Trans Egg joke)
I’m part of a CSA with a small, local farm. The winter share was $5 a dozen for 2 dozen every other week. We’ll see if the price goes up for the summer share.
Maybe I’m lucky to be in a city with tons of farms nearby, but I’d encourage others to look for local options like this.
Like all rising living expenses, it is crushing me. Not that you really care, you want EZ points to style on the republicans.
These gotchyas, slams, and owns do not make my rent lower or raise my wages.
No I posted this because I hear a lot of complaints but I’m a vegetarian and allergic to eggs. Don’t make assumptions that are not there.

I’ve moved on to tofu scramble. Not as good but cheap as still pretty tasty.
Got a recipe?
Wonder how is tofu shakshuka?
I just wing it honestly. I use firm/extra firm tofu and press it (put paper towels on both sides of the tofu and something heavy on top like a bowl of water and leave it for 15 minutes or so). The just fry it in maybe a tablespoon of oil with some seasoning. A little turmeric gives it a nice color and flavor.
Hash browns, onions and bell peppers go a long ways too if you have them around.
