The ongoing egg crisis in the U.S. shows no signs of improvement, with prices skyrocketing to an average of $4.15 per dozen, up from $2.51 a year prior. Much of the shortage is attributed to a severe avian influenza outbreak, leading to empty grocery shelves and even egg-related thefts. Additionally, consumers are experiencing a decline in egg quality, with shells reportedly becoming more fragile. As businesses like Waffle House add surcharges for eggs, social media discussions about the situation, including tracking prices, become widespread, indicating public concern and interest in the ongoing 'eggpocalypse.'
Egg prices have surged dramatically, averaging $4.15 per dozen compared to $2.51 last year, with no immediate signs of relief in sight.
Waffle House now imposes a 50-cent surcharge for each egg, reflecting the crisis in the egg market and its impact on businesses.
