I get that the point is inflation, but why eggs? If they went to $12/dozen, it would cost me like $4 extra dollars per week.

    It’s because the current avian flu, chicken and egg farms are having to kill a metric fuck ton of their chickens. 😢 Meanwhile spray tan is already vowing to gut the CDC and leave WHO.

        You know, if you spent your entire life living underground and never saw the sky, you’d never worry about silly little things like asteroids crashing into the planet and killing everyone.

        It doesn’t mean you’ll survive any better, you just get to die ignorant.

        I’m sure the entire problem is government over-regulation. If we fire half the cdc and not allow them to use the word “gender”, they won’t be ble to enforce regulations and the price will come down

      Asintomatic avian flu chickens are being sacrificed? Poor creatures.

        Realistically, how can you control the spread? Even assuming there are treatments, in what world is it practical to provide repeated direct medical attention to millions of chickens?
