How Much is Too Much for A Dozen Eggs?Added:
12 large eggs ain't what it used to be.
In the early 2000s, you could get a dozen eggs for less than $2. And suddenly, in 2024, all the chickens get influenza, and now we're paying $9 for some cage-free eggs. Now the chickens are healthy, so what happened in 2026?
There was a 70% increase from 2020 to 2026. [music] But the messed up thing is that the eggs seem to be getting worse and worse. You could grab a packet of jumbo's and crack that open only to find the tiniest egg you've ever seen. What is an egg worth to you, and at what price would you just stop paying?
