How much are eggs in the US? I just did some googling and I assume the sources are wrong because all the prices they quote for eggs are really low.

- card_zero 2y agoThey more than doubled in price in December, and now they cost the same as in the UK, it's tragic.
- twixfel 2y agoDoesn't sounds like they're unaffordable to working class people at all then. They're affordable in the UK and working class Americans are richer than working class Brits.
- teractiveodular 2y agoCommodities in the US are often cheap by European standards. Gas for $4/gallon is considered outrageously expensive in the US, meanwhile in the Netherlands it's close to €2/L, or $8/gallon.
- master-lincoln 2y ago> Eggs US increased 2.22 USD/DOZEN [to 4.41USD] or 101.37% since the beginning of 2024, according to trading on a contract for difference (CFD) that tracks the benchmark market for this commodity.

- twixfel 2y agoSounds affordable.
- lupusreal 2y agoYou're out of touch. Yuppies without empathy for the working class can't understand why the price of groceries (not just eggs, but eggs exemplify the problem) is relevant because you lot are making north of six figures anyway.
- twixfel 2y agoI don't earn 6 figures (sadly); those eggs are affordable.
