Why Expensive Eggs Are a Bigger Problem Than You Think | So Expensive | Business Insider [Ugqy4GuJ5mR]

People love eggs. They’re a grocery staple. But in the first few months of 2025, the average price of eggs in the United States reached $6 per dozen, double what they cost at the same point last year. The main reason behind the increase is the spread of the avian flu, which has led to the killing of about 170 million birds in the United States.
