Summary
Egg prices in the U.S. have reached a record high of $4.95 per dozen amid a severe bird flu outbreak that has led to the culling of millions of egg-laying chickens.
The shortage is compounded by rising feed, fuel, and labor costs, as well as increased demand and stricter cage-free regulations in several states.
Consumers face empty shelves, surcharges, and limited availability, with some areas pricing cartons at $10 or more.
Prices are expected to continue rising, especially with Easter demand.
Feel free to explain you opinion.
Here. I found an article on it. You won’t hear of a corporate manager making the same considerations.

OP isn’t going to read that. Prices=Bad to them.
I don’t think that works as well on people as you might think. Perhaps you’re the one who has remained ignorant by dismissing the opinions of others who may have very convincing arguments.
But hey, stay ignorant.
There is no opinion. There is a fact why stores sell loosies, and it’s not “to be cool”. That’s the dumbest most out of touch thing I’ve ever heard.
It’s because people can’t afford the whole thing, so they charge a premium for a single. If they gave a shit they’d just charge 1/12th of a carton of eggs, instead of gouging poor people. 17¢ might sound like a ridiculous amount to complain about to you and I, but if a person cannot afford a $10 carton, I’m guessing that money matters.
Good job! I knew you could do it
And therefore, they are bad, because they double mark up single items.
Glad we agree now. Goodbye.
Still drinking that willful ignorance, I see.
Good luck in life with that.
So, you think it’s fine to double upcharge products sold in lower quantities as a penalty for people who cannot afford to buy the packaged quantity?
That does explain a lot about you.
