Phew, are you OK over there? For comparison in Germany it’s 2€ for 10 eggs, or 2,40€ for cage free. Eggs from the farmer start at 3,50€. In my area anyway.
They’re fighting the bird flu
I regret not making friends with the neighbors who owned chickens. They’re sitting on bird gold.
As someone who grew up in the Denver area, here is some additional context. King Soopers is the grocery store that most people go to(Kroger owned). The Kroger brand eggs are the cheapest they offer and in the city they are $7.89 a dozen. In the suburbs $7.39. Downtown supermarkets are always a little more expensive. There are some egg brands priced at $10.99 and higher but the cheapest ones are still getting really expensive. And that’s if they aren’t sold out due to the shortage.
Looks like I need to fly out to Denver to save some money on eggs.
They will have security tags in them soon
Kinda irrelevant, but get fucked Eggslut. Worst place to work for, owners are a bunch of liars and have terrible management practices. This is absolutely killing them and I love that for them.
They’re $7/dozen here, but Aldi has cruelty guaranteed eggs for $2.77, limit 2 dozen. I don’t have Aldi near me but was at one within the last week.
I know the prez said he’d drop the price of groceries on day one, but he got a little sidetracked by his side project of destroying the country. But give him a few more weeks to get that done and then I’m sure he’ll get right back to the groceries.
Oh no, grocery prices are this term’s infrastructure week.
And if you are an independent egg vendor you have to submit a 1099 form with your taxes. Coincidence?
Good! (Said with a condescending vegan tone.)
They’re $8.75 for 12 at Aldi in CA. Or if you’re a real saver, 60 for under $45!
Jesus that’s a huge difference in the Aldi price nearest me (about an hour by car).
Yeah, you know shit is fucked when eggs are over $8/dozen at Aldi!
$4 a dozen in Kentucky.
Time to start raising chickens.
Bird flu is still an issue
Nobody is mentioning this when talking about raising fowl. I’ve had chickens and the primary reason I’m not doing that now is because I don’t want primary contact with h5n1. I don’t even know if testing is available and if it is imagine it isn’t cheap. Even if I made a fully enclosed pen so wild birds can’t get to the food or water I’d still worry. And I want my animals to free roam.
FYI eggs from backyard chickens have a higher level of lead in them. On account of cities being polluted with leaded gasoline for decades. Fun times.
So a dollar more than a banana
How much can it cost, Michael?
I am afraid to ask the price of the Vital Farms eggs.
PS: $6.49 in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
