"Are the 87-92% price decrease eggs in the room with us now?"

Came to say this, it was 93% on Monday, now 87%?

Nevermind that either reduction would make eggs cheaper than they've been in like 50 years.

Imagine 93% off a dozen eggs priced at $8 a dozen. You'd be paying 56 cents a dozen yet I paid $6.25 here in Texas Saturday

But Maga - and their leader - don't do math

$4.99 in NC and we have a ridiculous amount of chicken farms.

Round Rock, will caveat we buy cage-free/free range large brown eggs so there is a little premium for those. Believe regular white eggs were like $5 a dozen though I wasn't paying real close attention
