Let’s Go Trump!
Bird flu sucks. Too bad the CDC can’t worn us about it though.
Thanks, Obama!
So, I guess no… Denver omelet? Sorry I’ll leave.
Don’t leave man that was a solid one
So in the 🇺🇸 instead of rings people now use eggs to propose to someone ?
In hawaii we cant get eggs at all for the past week or two-- or even those milk carton pints of liquid eggs. I was told at the foodland today to come at 5am tomorrow when the doors open and theres always just a few boxes. So… I guess I get up at 430 tomorrow. Then elbow the old ladies – or whatever I need to do to get to the eggs first.
They are mean and have canes but they can’t take a punch and I can run to the egg aisle first.
Out here fighting for eggs like scalpers fighting for RTX 5090s.
It seems easier to just go buy a live chicken.
Or somehow corral some of the wild chickens that are running rampant on the islands
Wouldn’t it be great if this was the impetus for people going back to raising animals and growing some of their food for themselves? Almost everyone has room for a garden, even if it’s just a window sill for some fresh herbs. And raising even some of your own food can save you a ton of money.
Or you can take advantage of the rising egg prices to sell them for $9.99/dozen to your neighbors, whatever. Be the neighborhood eggpin. Lead your own fowl empire to dominance over the local Whole Foods.
I do this, but I swear I spend so much on potting soil, and containers (though now that I have enough that cost is taken care of) that I’m not sure it’s saving me anything. I’d love to plant into the ground but I’ve got hard soil so I’d have to rent a tiller and amend the soil for ages, which is also an additional cost. Still planning on planting tons of potatoes, various tomatoes, and an herb garden this spring. It’s an enjoyable hobby, but it is just that; a hobby. Those tend to be expensive, at least the ones I choose.
I’m pretty lucky where I live, my house used to be on the side of a lake, and the soil is very soft and easy to dig into. I’ve got a tiller attachment for my weed trimmer that I use to till the soil in the spring.
But even if you don’t have good soil, you can still set up a hydroponics bay with whatever space you have available. It’s not too expensive to get started either. Probably less than you’ll spend on eggs these days. 😂
Your chickens need to support their weed habit somehow…
They’re cage free/organic. Those are always more expensive.
Yeah. Complaining about the cost of top shelf eggs is kinda disingenuous.
I don’t know what cage free means but I do know it’s marketing speak designed to tempt me away from free range. Not buying it.
Do people in the US buy caged eggs?! In the UK free range is almost a ubiquitous minimum.
The US is horrendously backwards on animal welfare.
Not organic, and cage free < free range < pasture raised
cage free is better than nothing, but if it were organic it would say so and not just cage free I suspect. I’m not even sure they’re free-range, maybe they’re just all in a barn with no access to outside fields?
even if they were ecological, to me that seems expensive
People eating caged eggs in 2025??
But those come with a free cage, that’s extra value!
You can get 18 eggs for that much in Chicagoland.
Conservatives: Thanks Obama!
Your welcome!
I usually pass this over but for a novelty account you might want to spell it right. “You’re welcome!”
Butt that wood bee to easy!
Anecdote: My Trumpster in-laws could not stop yacking about “Biden’s high eggs prices” just last month. Haven’t heard a peep about the price of eggs since Trump came back. Now it’s just “God’s will.”
Nows your chance to return the favour. Complain to her about how expensive eggs are now under Trump.
Nu-uh Fox and friends said it was DEI and wokeness causing eggs prices to soar.
I know it is fun to think about getting back at these people but it doesn’t really work. They were never rational to begin with.
I can’t believe buying chickens actually saved me money, I just did it because I wanted chickens. I expected to pay more per egg (considering food and litter) because I don’t have economies of scale like the large producers do.
Conservatives don’t care. They’ll go into debt for Daddy Trump. That’s what cultists do for a cult leader.
