US asks countries to help lower soaring prices of eggs

So, millions of people are protesting?

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.

Nazis deserve the slowest and most painful starvation possible, so we most certainly do not all agree on that

shitload of idiots
I might agree to ship Canadian eggs to the US...
The Kinder Surprise ones, that is.
I'm assuming the bottom 30% dumbest of the US population would instantly die from choking on the toy inside.I mean that’s why they’re still banned in the US

I don't know what's happening everywhere else but I'm joining protests in my area when they pop up. It really isn't being reported to diminish dissent

*compared to other plants.
They are associated with less carbon emissions per kg than eggs. Normally the real issue is that we're exporting the ecological impacts, but if people are importing eggs, avocados are probably better of both fronts.
SourceI personally use flax as an egg replacer most of the time.

Oh man, most of my egg recipes do too

I don't know if it helps anyone, but you don't need eggs to survive
What will I eat with my bacon?!

I've gone to the protests. Sadly, millions are not protesting.
Everybody here is paycheck-to-paycheck. Missing work because you were illegally detained at a protest may be the difference between living in a crappy apartment, or living under a bridge.
Part of the 2025 playbook is to get trump unlimited unchecked power, and use the military to enforce it domestically. Riots in the streets would certainly do that.
Right now, trump is doing more harm to his constituents than to his enemies. Republican politicians can barely show their faces in their own distric here. Don't give them another target to transfer that hate to.

"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.

Also a Yank. At this point we really do deserve the punishment. I just hope that when we get a new administration in a little less than four years the world has a shred of sympathy for us.
I hope that you get a new administration in a little less than 4 years.
The Republicans aren't destroying the rule of law and hand absolute power to the presidency, just to give it to the opposition on the next occasion.

Unfortunately Europe can't wait four years for the US to start taking their responsibilities on the world stage seriously again. Russia will almost certainly move within that time, so Europe is now having to build up its defenses in a way that they've never previously had to do since the 1940s. Assuming the US does come around (that is a big "if") by that point Europe will have already got used to using its own military. The US will no longer be required.
I really don't see any way that things can now go back to the way they were. Trade will, but I think the days of cooperative military action are over. If you guys get embroiled in another pointless war in the Middle East, I think you're going to have to do that on your own.
Trade well not go back to normal in four years. How could you ever trust any sort of deal singed by America? I sure hope we get more tech companies globally out of this and we stop selling them to American companies.

Yup and are comparable in price to eggs currently I didn't say it was a practical alternative just that they work as a perfect replacement. More of just highlighting there are options.
One of my kids is super allergic to eggs so we've gone years without them in the house and found ways to adjust recipes due to that and other food allergies.
plus, nowhere near as cruel.

Meanwhile, the egg department in my grocery store is absolutely full not a single carton sold.
Nobody's paying eight bucks for a carton they can rot.
Meanwhile I bought a pack of chicken breasts at 267 a pound which is the normal price.
There's no shortage of chickens, there's no shortage of eggs
They are not the same birds. Layers are older birds then the meat birds. So yes the laying hens could be wiped out well the meat birds are not.

Exactly, hamburgers, fries, kfc and pizza are all egg-free. What do they need eggs for, breakfast menu at macdonalds?

Friendly reminder that eggs aren't a required part of a healthy diet, from your friendly neighborhood vegan!

Look up vegan alternatives to eggs. I know applesauce can be used in cookies as my wife has done this. Also if you need eggs in savory recipes avocados have the same fat to protein ratio and work great
The cool thing is theres like a dozen different alternatives that all taste different, which cab be overwhelming at first but you have a lot more choice as well. Apple sauce is excellent for a lot of sweet breakfast recipes and pastries. We've used bananas too, and like you said avocado is a good choice too.
