The cheapest eggs were very cheap, like $2.00 a dozen. Those are the cheapest eggs still in styrofoam containers, store brand I guess.

I never get those because we care about sustainable practices, sustainable packaging, and flavor, and those eggs are 0 for 3 on those metrics.

Every other brand and category of eggs was back up again, some over $10 a dozen. I was like WTAF? They did also have some 18 packs for $9.50.
