I get that the point is inflation, but why eggs? If they went to $12/dozen, it would cost me like $4 extra dollars per week.
Around 12.
Eggs are incredible nutrition value and I’d still pay 12$ for 12 eggs. In fact I do splurge on local market eggs that come from free range chickens and here they are around 5$ for 12 which is double the factory price but still and an incredible steal.
That’s why the great American egg whine of 2024 is so confusing. Min wage in the US is still like 24++ eggs an hour which is an insane thing to complain about. Y’all need financial literacy not cheaper eggs.
i eat one to two eggs per day, so anywhere from seven to fourteen a week. it’s about $1 per egg.
… hong kong $.
If we count fast food breakfast sandwiches and meals at places maybe 6 or 7 a week. If not, zero, as I usually make regular ol sandwiches at home.
I’m vegan BTW
How do you know if someone is vegan?
Yeah, but how many eggs do you eat? /s
It’s not just inflation. Eggs are experiencing a supply problem due to avian flu.
I guess around 8-12, sometimes more, rarely less.
Almost none. Allergies.
~30
I eat 3 eggs every morning. 21 a week.
Eggs are too expensive.
I don’t really eat eggs. I have ducks that lay eggs and if I really want some, I eat what they produce. I might try selling their eggs as a side hustle but a lot of people are grossed out by the concept of eating duck eggs for some reason lol
How are they compared to chicken eggs?
Richer flavor, they have higher levels of fat and protein. I much prefer them to chicken eggs.
8 per day so 56 per week; please keep them cheap
you eat 8 eggs EVERYDAY?
We are chatting with a dead person’s sentient cholesterol.
Gaston just doxed himself
lol yep, every day for breakfast; scrambled with some butter, sour cream, salt and pepper 😋
8 eggs for breakfast alone? Daily?
Correct. I have a minimal lunch and moderate supper with no snacks or desserts. Breakfast is my primary meal of the day.
You ever try throwing some green onions or mushrooms in there? I used to eat almost the same except for the sour cream
Feta and jalapenos
Most weeks maybe just un oeuf. I think since I stopped eating breakfast and found out my body hates gluten (so heavily reducing baked goods, my other main use of eggs), my egg consumption went way down. The one weekly is generally from going to get sushi and there being some tamagoyaki in there. I guess the odd exception is throwing one (boiled or raw) into soup and the rare occasion that I knock out a fried rice.
Edit: I think 10 local eggs are around 500 yen, at least the last time I checked. More expensive than non-local, and the price has definitely gone up generally in the last few years.
About 14. I’m not particularly price-sensitive about it given the absolute cost is low relative to many food options.
Eggs keep getting cited by people trying to blame their political opponents for increases in food prices because they have increased to about 2.5x from five years ago, which is a bigger increase than most foods. The bulk of the increase is due to the ongoing bird flu outbreak, but that fact doesn’t seem to have great distribution among the general public.
Six; 42 a week! Easy way to hit my protein goals everyday and maintain those gains :D
42 a week, or 6 a day.
However, 30 eggs is only $3 where I live.
