Who has the ability to fence 100K eggs before they go bad?
I wonder if this was before or after they wash the eggs. AFAIK they last longer and can be left unrefrigerated before they're washed
You underestimate how many deviled eggs I can eat.
I had actually thought about this sort of scenario happening, and wondered the same about a week ago. My conclusion was freeze drying to make powdered eggs that can be shelf stable for years.
Also might end up with a serious market for that as prices continue to climb with no end in sight.
Last I bought powdered egg prior to this recent skyrocketing, it was about a dollar per egg in equivalence. I don't know what it is now, but I'm sure that will go up too.
(I use powdered egg for baking because I just don't go through eggs enough to justify buying fresh. I actually save money by not having to throw away unused product)

Lol, "difficult decisions."
"I got a guy for that"
The guy:
This sounds like a line from Trailer Park Boys
Someone who already has a buyer, most likely an industry.
Bro I got hard boiled, cage-free, and century. I can get my hands on Balut but it’ll take a couple days, and it’ll cost you.
Give em to the poor
This is America. Those eggs are going to the black market.
Maybe start marking eggs with some kind of dye pattern to make it harder.
