That's an over 30% increase on that item. And eggs have been considerably more than that.

And it's definitely NOT related to the avian flu outbreak currently decimating corporate chicken farms (57 million dead chickens so far) and an increased demand from holiday cooking.

It's DEFINITELY NOT free market pricing resulting from a restricted supply meeting an increased demand.

It's FOR SURE Biden. And absolutely not what Forbes says: https://www.forbes.com/sites/anthonytellez/2023/01/12/why-are-egg-prices-still-so-high-its-not-the-reason-you-think/?sh=55c644eb7c6b

So, if you could, please explain how Presidents are in control of egg pricing?

So. you think that the fed 'printing money' caused the price of eggs to increase by 59%ish in one month?

That seems reasonable to you?

And NOT, say, the avian flu that has decimated chicken populations in the last year? An avian flu outbreak that has decimated 57 million chickens, which is far far higher than in previous outbreaks (like the 2015). A flu outbreak that is almost 100% fatal in corporate farms.

And with that radically reduced supply and an increased demand due to seasonal changes in eating habits (all that holiday baking requires a lot of eggs), the free market has driven the price of eggs up.

Are you sure it's not that? Because Forbes says it's that and not your boogeyman of "da fed be printin' money!!"

No, I don't think you savy it at all.

I think you have no idea why egg prices are so high because 1) you don't really care because 2) you want to politicize an avian flu outbreak to attack a President you don't like.

Avian flu is not new. Correct. Even the strain currently killing birds in North America is not new. It's been here before (because there's not just 1 type of flu).

But when was the last time egg prices went nuts?

2015.

When was the last time this particularly very lethal strain of bird flu ripped through our chicken population?

2015.

Uh oh. Data points are lining up. So, here we have some real world facts. A lethal strain of bird flu is killing birds. It's killed 57 million domesticated chickens.

So we have a limited supply. Demand is high. Causing prices to go up.

We've seen this exact thing happen before.

But I know you'll continue to ignore facts and reality, and stick with your boogeyman.
