Major food retailers have begun rationing eggs as the wholesale price of eggs reached an all time high price of over eight dollars a dozen this past week. The rise in egg prices were a primary driver as inflation rose to an annualized rate of three percent in January.
Last September, then-VP candidate JD Vance clutched his pearls in front of a case of eggs in a supermarket, moaning about the then-price of 3.82 per dozen. Current average pricing is now 4.95 per dozen and climbing.
Fifteen percent of the entire egg-laying stock of chickens in the United States have been destroyed in an attempt to stop the spread of the avian H2N1 virus.
A clueless neophyte chicken farmer in Minnesota was overheard yelling "what is the big deal? It just the flu! IT JUST THE FLU!"
