Egg prices are rising significantly, driven by inflation, supply chain issues, and health concerns like bird flu. Wholesale prices for large eggs reached $5.57 per dozen.
According to commodities data from Expana, egg prices soared 150% in just one year. In California, a carton now costs $8.85, illustrating dramatic regional price variations.
The Consumer Price Index reported that overall egg prices increased over 38% in the past year, demonstrating the significant financial strain caused by current economic conditions.
Experts predict stores may further raise egg prices in 2025, as ongoing supply chain problems and inflation keep costs high, limiting available stock.
