US asks countries to help lower soaring prices of eggs
-
We use the word eggs in German the way yankies use nuts or balls. That said, yes, you can swallow our eggs, dear US government.

I'm confused as to why people are still buying eggs. I've gotten on fine without them all my life
They were a relatively cheap, healthy, reliable source of protein. Also, they're delicious.

"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.
The fastest way to have a people turn on it's leaders is for the food supply to be threatened.
Wouldn't it be wonderful if Americans turned on their leaders?

What does it look like when one of the world's superpowers can't even ensure they can provide such a basic thing as eggs to their citizens.
If it was any other country at any other time, I doubt this would even hit the news. But it's the US after refusing vaccinations, losing a bunch of stock to a disease, all whilst claiming the egg prices will be lowered, so here we are.It's called a revolt.

New England area checking in - currently about 5.90 at Aldi and like 8.10ish at stop and shop.
Edit: per dozen
Each?
You might want to state the normal purchasing quantity for people outside the US.

At costco by me, you can get 24 eggs for 9 dollars. At the regular grocery store you can get 12 for 6. I think the bigger impact is any product that has eggs in it has jacked up the price to a ridiculous extent, beyond what the shortage would require.
So 30-50¢ each.
Doesn't sound that bad.

The Norwegian government will offer eggs, and we will only ask for the state of New York or as we like to call it: Nye Jorvik. The citizens of Nye Jorvik will enjoy all the benefits from a stabile, functioning social democracy.

That sounds like the price for a dozen.

Yup. The US is currently deporting a significant portion of it's agricultural workforce, while putting insane tariffs on the countries it imports food from, while also doing major cuts to the government which makes problems like avian flue more likely.
The Trump regime has a very "let them eat cake" approach to the food supply.

Eggs have been a staple poverty food in the US. Frying up one egg can give you your whole day's supply of protein plus a lot of nutrients, and it used to be that it could do that for about 20 cents. No more, though.

Interesting that the orange traitor flooded CA's farms in response to the recent wildfires, while also threatening undocumented farm workers, while also levying taxes across broad swaths of the economy. Seems to me that he's been instructed on actions to take to raise food prices. Hmm...

It sucks that this is happening.
Food staples becoming a cost-prohibitive thing, regardless of who's elected, is extraordinarily bad. I wish people could get past their reflexive need to point fingers and root for the other team to fail over this, because I'd think that wanting people to be able to eat is something we could all agree on.
Let the MAGATs starve.

Oooooooooohhhhhhhh....that actually sounds really good lol sorry for the confusion.
No worries, it was sort of intentional

You sound a whole lot like a Democrat when faced with voting to enrich the wealthy versus funding free school lunches.

Ask for 50% mineral rights and a thank you.
