[COPENHAGEN] The United States has reached out to Denmark and other European nations asking if they can export eggs as Americans face surging egg prices, the Nordic country’s egg association said on Friday (Mar 14). Read more at The Business Times.

“The United States has reached out to Denmark…”

You know, the country the United States wants to invade and forcefully take land from.

America: The dumbest rocks in the sock drawer.

    I’m not suggesting that corporations aren’t inflating prices, but your chicken breasts come from birds which are slaughtered pretty young, as opposed to egg layers so there is a much larger window to be infected.

      HPAI A(H5) or A(H7) virus infections can cause disease that affects multiple internal organs with mortality up to 90% to 100% in chickens, often within 48 hours.

      They’re not that young :)

      If there were any empty shelves, I’d buy it. I should have taken a picture. Nobody is buying any eggs. The price should have ridden that wave, there should be almost no eggs on the shelf, priced at the maximum that pushes product without quite selling out.

      There were thousands of eggs there.

      In covid we ran out of toilet paper, it wasn’t 8x the price on the shelf. Those eggs on the shelves are weeks old now.
