I’m seeing some people say crazy numbers on Twitter.

    4 cents an egg is wild. For 10 years I’ve been used to a dozen cage-free eggs costing around 20 cents an egg.

    46 cents a dozen, that’s like being able to get all your daily calories from eggs for $1.20, equivalent to 10 minutes of the federal minimum wage. Literally less expensive than the time it takes to buy them or the gas it takes to get to the store. Extremely rational and beneficial and wholesome industry.
