  Well, the inflation of the last year is not a secret. But this article is specifically about eggs. For the end consumer, it is of course a product that by itself is consumed only in moderate quantities, although fried eggs for breakfast is a much more common thing to have in the US than in a lot of other Western countries. However, eggs are of course used in the preparation of a lot of other products that are regularly consumed (pasta, baked goods,...). Thus an increase in the price of eggs alone would have an effect on the price of those products too, but with eggs being only one of a number of ingredients, that would still be a moderate increase. The raise in prices you see is across the board is due to _everything_ having become more expensive, not just an after-effect from pricier eggs.
