No Eggs Today

Egg prices up 120% since 2022? We’ve got alternatives!

As of January 2025, the national average price for a dozen large Grade A eggs in the United States reached $4.95, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

This significant increase is primarily due to the ongoing avian influenza outbreak, which has led to the culling of over 160 million birds since 2022, severely impacting egg production and supply

In response to the shortage, retailers such as Aldi, Costco, and Trader Joe's have implemented purchase limits on egg cartons to manage the constrained supply.

Additionally, the USDA has projected that egg prices could rise another 20% this year due to the continued impact of the virus on production.

Given the volatility in egg prices and supply, consumers are exploring alternative sources, such as local farm-to-table businesses, and considering egg substitutes in their cooking and baking to mitigate the impact of the shortage.
