Original Note:
The rising cost of eggs is due to the pandemic, inflation. More importantly the H5N1 Bird Flu which started in 2022 which affected 100 million egg laying hens. This was all during the Biden administration. The poster is spreading misinformation by blaming MAGA. https://www.nerdwallet.com/article/finance/why-are-eggs-so-expensive https://www.cnn.com/2025/01/25/business/egg-prices-avian-flu-outbreak/index.html https://www.agriculturedive.com/news/egg-prices-increase-record-bird-flu/738499/
