Whoops, now worth $50k.
Thieves poached about 100,000 eggs…
that’s a lot of eggs benedict.
More importantly, how much butter are we going to have to steal to make enough hollandaise sauce?
How do you fence 100k eggs??!!
With the current rising cost? (Thanks Obama)
On the black market of course.Removed by mod
That’s what I thought. But maybe there are places where you can just pull up with a truckload of really cheap eggs, stick a sign on the side of the road that says “Farm Fresh Eggs” and be out of there before anyone thinks to ask where you go them.
But if places like that exist, they still seem kinda risky when there is a recent “100K eggs stolen” headline. 😂
Right, like that’ll work for moving maybe a couple hundred, but not on the scale of 100,000.
“What’s that got to do with the price of eggs?”
Why would somebody want a truck load of eggs?? Who would buy them even.
That means each egg is worth 40 cents. A dozen being 2.40$. I thought you guys were paying 6+$ for a dozen? Or is the 40k number before the stores profit margin.
12x $0.40= $4.80 That matches/slightly exceeds prices I’ve been seeing.
Your arithmetic is off by a factor of 2.
lol wtf, i guess my brain froze while i was typing this. I was thinking of a standard 6x package of eggs like i have it in my shelf but typed dozen…
a dozen ‘organic’ eggs being $2.40 sounds like a current producer price to a distributor. difference between that and the shelf price is profits for someone somewhere along the distribution chain.
A dozen regular (not fancy) eggs are about $5 where I am.
