AP -lying propagandists.
This is bs. Egg prices have come down. Still high, but coming down.
Okay Liam Neesom
$4.79 dozen here in Michigan today, even with our new cage-free requirements boosting price further here.
I DID notice that hard cooked eggs are $5.50 a dozen; no apparent bump with all the other raw increases. Handy if you want to pickle some and are terrible, like me, at hard boiling and then peeling them without making a cratered wreck of the surfaces.
There’s always chocolate eggs plus those little squishy yellow chickie marshmallow peeps.
Right on AP’s average # for WM’s cheapest “Lg” near FR HQ:

(But that is down from $9.00+ earlier at WM).
Still seeing between 40 and 42 cents per egg at Walmart here in NoVa. 20% down from the all time highs but I would love to see the 60 egg box drop below $10. May never see $5.74 for it again but one can dream.
THIS IS A LIE.
I paid 53 cents an egg two weeks ago.
yesterday I paid 43 cents an egg on amazon fresh...same place they were 53 cents two weeks ago..
prices for food across the board are tumbling...at least on amazon fresh..they’re tumbling to SANE prices because they were insanely high..but they are falling
even eggs.
WHO POSTS ROOTERS AS PROOF THAT SOMETHING THAT HURTS TRUMP IS TRUE?!?!?!
Why not quote msnbc or cnn? :)
egg prices are down 20 percent where i am from 2 weeks ago
And once again, if there is something that can be spun negatively against President Trump, or malign him for something you are right there to post it!
That’s not what I noticed at my store but I suppose some store some where the eggs might be that expensive.
Even though the AP story about eggs is false, it will be reported by hundreds of news outlets across the nation, without a single pushback. Pure propaganda designed to move public opinion against Trump policies.
that is why they got tossed out of the press room.
“Eggs represent approximately 0.1% of the total Consumer Price Index (CPI)12. Despite a drop in wholesale prices and no egg farms having bird flu outbreaks, U.S. egg prices increased to a new record-high of $6.23 per dozen3. In the latest CPI report, egg prices were up 53% year-over-year45.”
Wholesale price of eggs is down about 50 percent to around $3 per dozen. It takes a while to clear out the inventory that stores bought at $6.
USA today has a balanced report. AP is pure BS.
“But that price and the consumer price index cost of eggs overall, which was up 5.9% in March, may not accurately reflect the drop in wholesale prices that started in the middle of the month. The CPI is an average of data collected through the month and retail prices were higher at the beginning of March, one expert said.
“Additionally, retailers may not have dropped prices of eggs proportionately with the drop in the wholesale egg market, which may have to do with retailers wanting to take advantage of recent worries about scarcity to keep prices high and upcoming demand for Easter, some experts say.”
This is why the AP is not allowed in WH press conferences anymore.

Egg prices are down considerably they are literally over 2 dollars cheaper now
Incredibly misleading story with an outright lie for a headline. The prices are from the start of March. Prices are down 70% since then, and it ain’t even Easter.
$6 here in Miami at Publix.
Down $1.50 by me over the past 2 weeks.
Article us misleading, at best
4.99 a dozen here down from 8.99 a month ago.
And now all the local hens are laying so the farm fresh eggs are available.
