A couple years ago, the average retail price of eggs in the USA spiked in price to over $4.00/dozen because of bird flu and has been slowly dropping ever since. It's been quite a while (2001) since the average retail price of eggs was less than $1.00/dozen.
$2.30/dozen eggs, a serving size is two eggs per meal, that's six meals of protein at $0.38/meal. That's pretty cheap eating compared to the rest of the world...just saying.
A laying chick costs $2.00-$5.00 buy a couple chicks and raise your own eggs for free....
