    Wow, food in Germany is indeed cheap.

    Current prices: 0,34€ per egg for organic eggs, 0,20€ per egg for a lower grade (Bodenhaltung)

      Just over the border in Switzerland I’ve got 0,79€ per egg (0,75€ pr egg in a 12 pack). But that’s still cheaper than OP.

      Got a 18 pack from Penny the other day for about 3 or 4 euro. Only thing I miss about American grocery stores are the variety but fuck all that if you can’t afford the majority of it

        We’re only talking eggs here, this is not an indicator of general inflation.

        We had that too so prices are higher over say five years, but as far as I know, general inflation is under control. The biggest problem there is all the price increases blamed on “global supply chain disruption” from a couple years back: why haven’t they gone away since the disruption has?

    I just paid like $11 for 18 in the bay area and I thought that was bad. Good thing Trump has a concept of a plan to take care of us soon tho.

    I used to buy those eggs at the bottom of the picture. They come with a newsletter inside about how the chickens are doing.

    The cheap eggs now cost what those eggs used to cost.

    As long as MAGA doesn’t blame Trump or the corporations directly then those corporations will continue to raise prices because higher profits are in their best interest.

    Bird flu sucks. Too bad the CDC can’t warn us about it though.

  • Wow. I saw people mentioning this on another thread and I posted that we can get 15 Medium Free Range Eggs in the UK for $3.37. Could find cheaper than that if I shopped around.

    In hawaii we cant get eggs at all for the past week or two-- or even those milk carton pints of liquid eggs. I was told at the foodland today to come at 5am tomorrow when the doors open and theres always just a few boxes. So… I guess I get up at 430 tomorrow. Then elbow the old ladies – or whatever I need to do to get to the eggs first.

    They are mean and have canes but they can’t take a punch and I can run to the egg aisle first.

    They’re $7/dozen here, but Aldi has cruelty guaranteed eggs for $2.77, limit 2 dozen. I don’t have Aldi near me but was at one within the last week.
