Egg Prices Soar, Fewer Americans Buy Them

A recent study reveals that roughly one-third of Americans have stopped buying eggs due to sharply increased prices.

These consumers, on average, plan to resume egg purchases only when prices drop below $5 per carton.

The significant price hike, exceeding 1000% in some states, is largely attributed to the widespread avian flu outbreak.

This situation highlights the impact of rising food costs on household budgets and the political ramifications of such increases.
