Wouldn't it be great if this was the impetus for people going back to raising animals and growing some of their food for themselves? Almost everyone has room for a garden, even if it's just a window sill for some fresh herbs. And raising even some of your own food can save you a ton of money.

Or you can take advantage of the rising egg prices to sell them for $9.99/dozen to your neighbors, whatever. Be the neighborhood eggpin. Lead your own fowl empire to dominance over the local Whole Foods.

My gf is getting us chickens this year.

Lots of luck with getting chickens this year. You know they come from eggs and EVERYBODY will be thinking the same thing. There will be riots at the Rural Kings.
