… twelve?
All the downvotes are from bakers
And I thought $6 was expensive.
Well, they’re obviously normal price now, since it was all Bidens fault, and had nothing to do with poultry diseases.
Well this was definitely an entirely US problem and didn’t affect any other countries. Eggs are totally a normal price and easily available here in Australia.
Trump won’t let a little poultry disease be a bother. Hell he basically ignored an entire pandemic.
Not here, just saw them at 8.99 and limited to 2 per customer last night. Medium free range eggs were 2.99. Large eggs were $2-3 a few weeks ago.
strange that it only effects chickens and no other birds hmmm
I’ll just note that !AskUSA is a thing. That said holy fuck eggs are expensive in America. I buy those for two bucks.
I got a 404 error with Boost (the app) with your link. Is it this one? !AskUSA@discuss.online
I didn’t actually link it so thanks. Yeah that’s the one.
It is!
This is a post right now because prices have (hopefully) temporarily spiked. My grocery store had a sign apologizing, blaming avian flu+high demand, and promising to keep their process competitive. I think 2 bucks is normal for us too but right now they’re over $5.
That makes sense.

It’s 3.39€ for 10 (medium?) organic/free-range eggs in Germany… Or $4.26 converted to dollar a dozen (including taxes).
Rewe in central Germany got free range for 2.69€.
Around £3 in the UK. Sounds about right.
Edit:
The above is free range. Caged eggs are cheaper, £2.15 for 15 eggs in Asda.
$7.42 from Walmart, $10.65 for the ones I get (Vital Farms). This is from Colorado, USA.
Can confirm these prices
One month ago: ~$3.29
Yesterday ~$5.49
For 18 eggs: ~$7.19
They only have grade A eggs that come in the fancy compressed paper boxes so that’s what I normally get. Though eggs have been getting harder and harder to find since they’ve been struggling to restock them.
Just saw it was a USA question, I’m leaving it up for some international context
In the Netherlands. A dozen of eggs from Aldi € 2.68 = $ 2.82
They can be more expensive at other shops if bio etc
Yep. About €3 from the supermarket. Or about €6 fresh from the farm shop, but they are XL and often have a double yolk.
Woah I thought the Euro was more. Did it drop in value compared to the dollar recently?

There was a bit of an upswin for the dollar since nov 5… weirdly, not sure how that guy inspires confidence
$6.50/dozen for the regular eggs. Surprisingly, only $10/dozen for free range 18pack. This is in Idaho at Albertsons (not the cheapest but not a high end grocery store)
I was curious and checked while shopping today. There weren’t any, just a bare shelf.
I know you said USA, but maybe an interesting data point: €2.28 or $2.38 in Catalonia, Spain.
39kr~=$3.54 for a dozen in Sweden.
4,20 CAD so around 3 usd. EDIT: Hey the US part wasn’t there when I replied! Was it?
The US part was added at a later point in time.
Does Lemmy let you see what exactly was edited? Big issue over on Reddit when people sneak in an edit that changes things substantially. Not like OP is being malicious, but others can be.
I don’t think so, at least for regular users.
As of this moment: $5.49 for 12 large brown.
Last week I was able to get $4.49 for 12 large cage free.
Bird flu is obviously influencing prices quite a bit lately.
Costco, Minnesota; 18ct large $5.49
I was just recently in Japan and decided to go to a proper grocery store. A dozen eggs grade A was about $1.80 USD or 278 yen.
$8.99 - a Safeway in the bay area
