I get that the point is inflation, but why eggs? If they went to $12/dozen, it would cost me like $4 extra dollars per week.

Zero after I went vegan 3 years ago.

And honestly, when you know your way around a little and stick mostly to whole foods, it gets dirt cheap if you try. πŸ’š

I eat 3 eggs every morning. 21 a week.

Eggs are too expensive.

[–] HoneyMustardGas 7 points 6 days ago

With cooking and baking, 12+ per week. Which is about USD 5.60 for the XL bio eggs from the farm shop.

Luckily, I am not in the US.

I mostly use them for baking. I will probably just switch to substitutes going forward. I can live without eggs.

Corporate farming better get its shit together or consumers are going to learn to live without.

5-6, and eggs aren’t expensive yet. I guess wherever we get eggs from don’t have avian flu yet …. Although it’s here in the wild

I have a bowl of cereal (yogurt and fruit) during the week, but usually make something with eggs on the weekend.

[–] SocialMediaRefugee 3 points 5 days ago

Prob 4-5. I mix up breakfasts with oatmeal or cereal.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 days ago

42 a week, or 6 a day.

However, 30 eggs is only $3 where I live.

[–] Alenalda 3 points 5 days ago

12ish if were talking simply fried eggs, if you consider all the baked goods and stuff it probably closer to 24

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 days ago

Eggs are not that expensive in Sweden, but in all honesty I don't really eat that many eggs in a week. Maybe if we use it as an ingredient, or maybe I'm having a boiled egg as a healthy snack, but I think most weeks it would be 0.

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

I can eat up to a dozen boiled eggs a day if I'm particularly craving them. They're my fave source of protein!
