How about Scranton PA. After all, Joe says everything there causes cancer.
"Sharp said prices will likely not fall again until after new chickens are born"
Take your heart medicine with you. Wife sent me to get eggs from the local supermarket. $5.09 for a dozen large eggs, and these were store brand, not some fancy range free eggs.
Meant cage free eggs.
Place raw eggs in brine for about two weeks and hard boil them.

Lettuce prices are way up as well —
>>Last fall, California’s Salinas Valley, an area dubbed the “Salad Bowl” because it grows half the country’s supply of lettuce, was infested by an insect-borne virus — impatiens necrotic spot virus, a disease caused by sucking insects known as thrips — that destroyed more than 80% of the crop. That resulted in the price of lettuce surging nationwide. Though the cost varies depending on location, a box of romaine — usually costing $25-$30 on the East Coast — is now setting many wholesale buyers back by up to $100.
Just came from grocery store here in West Texas, prices up altogether, eggs not quite that pricey but up.
Normally, things like weather or disease make one item higher for awhile, but now almost everything is higher and/or in short supply.
Ah, yes, the price of gas is only up 50% instead of 100%, similar to the price of used cars. Some “good news.’’
Gas is up 50% from ridiculous temporary lows below the cost of production. It is near its average over last 3 years.
It’s expected to go about 30% in 2023.

All you posted is true. I’d like to know where a dozen eggs are 99 cents, and how long it has been since those folks have been grocery shopping.
Pete Buttigieg said, don’t worry about the price of gasoline you won’t need it in the future. Go by your electric car, because electric will go up twice as fast as gasoline.
Do the eggs taste the same?
My dad had around 80 to 100 hens when I was young. We sold the eggs. To this day, I can only eat eggs scrambled dry, and need meat and/or hot sauce. I don’t recall eating duck eggs.
I’m putting in a very large and extremely well filtered koi pond.
I fully expect it to be used to farm talapia or bass out of practicality in its lifespan.
“local businesses can’t hire enough workers to serve customers”
Raise the PPACA hour cap to 33 hours per week from 30.
That will increase the hourly worker supply.
The Democrats including Biden will have to go along since they don’t dare vote to keep workers needlessly poor.
Same here in West Texas. Only good thing is HEB buys a lot of local, so supplies and prices are a little better.
I live very close to a Natural Grocer store. They have nothing but pasture-raised eggs and always have one brand on sale for $1.99. I paid $3.99 two days ago for my favorite brand, Wilcox Family Farms. They are in Washington state, where I live, so I’m not paying a lot for freight. Plus there’s a good chance they were laid recently. NatGroc has stores all over the country, but not everywhere.
“I remember when a dozen was $1.08 and the 18-pack was about $1.49.”
Not that long ago.
That’s what they want you to believe.
Another plus of no more mean tweets.
