Denny's is the latest restaurant to add an egg surcharge amid bird flu shortage and soaring prices
Briefly

Denny's has begun imposing a temporary surcharge on egg dishes due to skyrocketing egg prices linked to a national shortage caused by a recent bird flu outbreak. Retailers are also facing similar challenges as egg prices have profoundly increased, with a dozen eggs costing over $8. Amid these issues, Denny's is in the process of closing 150 locations to revitalize its growth, struggling like many restaurants with inflation and changing dining habits. The company reassured customers of ongoing menu value despite regional pricing variations due to the egg crisis.
