Mexico reporting in, just yesterday I had two avocado toasts with four poached eggs on top.

Now where are those Dairy Section decals of the orange intestinal parasite that say - "I did this!"?

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 week ago (1 children)

the orange intestinal parasite

Is that what we're calling him now?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 week ago (3 children)

I've been calling it that for eight years now. Give or take.

Nice try but ours comes in a dozen. Looks like they already shrinkflation yours.

[–] prettybunnys 29 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yo what kinda broke ass chickens they got that only lay 10 eggs.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

Hey now, it's winter so the chickens can slack a little.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago (5 children)

I buy them by the 18 pack. We eat eggs. Reminds me, I need to go make some eggs.

Carton of eggs

For the low price of €5,70, these could be yours.

I didn't know eggs come in metric outside of the US.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Me neither. We do dozens in Australia.

I mean, what if someone needs a quarter of a carton? Or even a third? Didn't think about that did they.

Curse these Europeans with their fancy metric numbers.

Ah if your not American, then why are the eggs in the fridge?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Because sometimes the house gets up to 26°C inside when it's 43.6°C outside, like last week.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Where do you live that it's 40 degrees??

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago (4 children)

If only it was 40°C, that would be a common summer's day.

That day, the road I drove home on was 51°C at 16:00 and the overnight temperature didn't drop below 27.2°C.

So, yes, eggs in the fridge.

Source: I live in Perth, Western Australia.

Straya, possibly?

Also, they will keep longer in the fridge, even though you don't need to.

Lots of places have that. Mostly around the equator, and much of the southern hemisphere since it's deep summer right now

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago

I dunno, my family is weird.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago

Eggs are also refrigerated in Denmark, that's why we used to be such a great ally to the US.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago

Living in Aus during a heatwave, I'd rather my eggs remain raw and cold until I'm ready to cook them, rather than them spontaneously cooked in the pantry lol

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Do people not refrigerate their eggs? I live in Australia and we always have them in the fridge.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

Depends on if the eggs get washed or not

US eggs are washed and will rot on the counter, most other countries do not and so it really doesn't matter (I could have whether the washing is done or not backwards tbf, but I know it has to do with that)

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago

UK here - it's common not to. I think they technically will last longer in the fridge, but they're absolutely fine kept out.

We put eggs in the fridge. What are ya trying to say??? My eggs ain't good enough for ya?????

They are. Cone over, I'm making tariff themed omelettes on the cheap!!

[–] [email protected] 30 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Similarly to pineapples being a display object for wealth, I can see the time when we, rich Europeans would throw parties for US citizens having a single egg on a pedestal on the dinner table.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

Easter is about to get weird soon.

Stop showing off your immense wealth.

Mmm they look so affordable

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You can't afford my eggs, traveller, my eggs are too strong for you!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

Egg man, I'm telling you, I'm going to have breakfast and I need only your strongest eggs!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago

You fool, Americans have been emigrating! I can see all the eggs from Greenwich Mean Time. I can see a few on my counter! I'm scarfing eggs like Gaston over here.

Still can't seem to get hollandaise sauce right though. That poor butter... 😔

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (3 children)

I sorta thought that even if egg prices in the USA were high the global prices must be too but then someone sent me a picture of prices in Germany - they're literally 1/10th the price

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Eggs are produced domestically most places, which softens global price sensitivity

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I pay 3 euros for a dozen to a local farm here in Germany

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yup. I bought 15 eggs at Lidl in sweden yesterday fro 29:90 sek (2.5 euro)

Not every place has a problem with avian flu - culling entire flocks are meant to prevent that from happening

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

You bastard. Some of us are insomniacs

[–] skittle07crusher 7 points 1 week ago

Do not taunt them or they will further erode their meager anti-bird flu measures and bring us a 2nd pandemic with Trump as “leader of the free world”

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

Denmark checking in, it was like $3 USD for 10 eggs yesterday, and Denmark isn't cheap

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

Oh yeah? I'll make my own eggs with blackjack and hookers.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

I am all out right now, but I will purchase a dozen organic ones this afternoon!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Your carton did a shrinkflation on you. And a regular inflation
