Not quite that cheap here, Dozen $2.65. But that is nowhere near prices earlier. Score for Biden. Silent Type May 2023 #5
Gosh, I still pay $3/doz to my SIL. But then, her hens get organic feed & are happy birds. nt Hekate May 2023 #6

I try to egg their cars, and they try to drive past me without getting egged. We all enjoyed it (well, I'm pretty sure we all did). It was game off for a while due to inflation.

Game on!

The chickens that lay those eggs never see the sun or get to scratch and peck at the ground.

because I know the chickens they came from can do those things because the farm is local and I've seen it.

I will always buy organic free range eggs.

These are most likely chicken factory eggs - being feed GMO cheap grains and living in hell.

Same here in the winter…when they stop laying or slow down I have to shop very carefully for eggs that are certified humanely raised. Chickens raised in factories have a miserable existence.

My dad and I each got three and waterglassed a bunch, just in case the apocalypse hits over the debt ceiling for a few weeks. LOL

Okay, only half lol.

Eggs are still expensive here. Before this mess, they were $3-4 a dozen and like $5 for 18. Today a dozen is $7-8 and 18 are $10 or so. But, this is Hawaii as I said where diesel is still over $6 a gallon

I expected groceries to be really expensive…and while they were more than I spend at home in MT, it wasn’t crazy over the top. And, you can buy good bourbon at the grocery store!

It depends on where avian flu has hit and how many birds had to be culled.

Prices have stayed reasonable here in NM.
