Lemme share something with you people.
Eggs are still stupid cheap, today. However, there are too many greedy people between the producer and people that need them for eating.
My everyday job has me go around to places most will not go and one day I discovered an egg farm, somewhat off the beaten path, that sells directly. Only requirement is that they sell a minimum of thirty eggs (a tray).
I made a few questions and now I'm bringing eggs weekly from there, invoiced to me by weight. No size distinction but most eggs are L size. Roughly speaking, each egg is 0,1667€, with VAT already included. The same egg in supermarkets is sold anywhere between 6 to 11 cents more expensive.
That's too much.
Eggs in the supermarket near me are anywhere from $4.99 to $12.99 for 12.
Eggs from farmers near me are $4 for 12.
Easy to guess where I buy my eggs.
The 4.99 at the supermarket because it's not worth the extra time to swing by the farmers?
More like W size
Come again?
Assuming they mean win.
Wumbo
Just saw $6.99 eggs today.
I buy from a Mennonite farmer.
$3/doz, often laid same day....CAD...sure sucks to be me, egg-wise.
But fuck can they run...
Unwashed eggs?!? Gross
Just kidding, I'm actually extremely jealous, those eggs taste so much better (and are probably way safer at this point)
If you're getting fancy eggs. The mass produced eggs are like $2.99.
In a high cost-of-living area too?
$7.42 at Wal-Mart in Northern California omg wtf (that’s for the fake cage free, that discount store doesn’t even have the pasture raised at all)
I‘m glad Austria banned battery cage systems in 2009 and the EU banned it in 2012. Also, Austria banned cages in 2020 and regulated the amount of animals depending on the space of the stable.
Good! Do you know which chickens get the most space, at minimum? California’s hens may get more than most but it’s still not enough. Even before recent price increases, it would probably take about 10 bucks to get organic pasture raised that you could feel reasonably good about.
There’s farmers who sell "roaming chicken eggs" for ~ 65 cents a piece; they also don’t kill the male chicks and let them be with the herd. Also one of their "gimmick" is that they have a modified trailer and let the chickens roam different areas.
Love it!!! I’d buy those all day!
Consuming animal products isn’t perfect but we still gotta do the best we can :)
each? were they golden?
They're $3 in Wegmans. You need a better egg guy.
What's your location?
It's 3 hours to the nearest Wegman's.
Or Walmart. Really if you are paying for $6 eggs it's by choice.
I said I saw, not buy.
Wow, this comment thread is like I'm back in reddit! Does this mean lemmy's made the big time, that now we're getting disinformation and bots? 🤩
Already have both
Instance based issues
Bots are much easier on Lemmy compared to Reddit, so I'm surprised we don't see a huge number of them.
Not enough market share yet...
You guys don't throw cow manure at your traitorous neighbour's freshly white washed house walls?
I haven't before, but I might now. There's plenty of dairies around here...
Cow manure is also too expensive for that.
What do you mean? It comes free with the cow.
Raid the grocery store dumpster for expired eggs, even better and free
Not a totally terrible idea if you want the eggs for vandalism.
Okay boomer, back to Facebook with ya.
