I always thought for a superb, tasty package of nutrition, eggs were ridiculously cheap. Now that more producers are getting into the free-range business, prices have naturally (no pun intended) risen. However, the recent bird-flu epidemic (maybe it's even a pandemic at this point) has resulted in large chicken culls and driven prices up. There's nary an egg case to be seen at Costco, a thing I haven't witnessed in 25 years.
