I believe the average price in the US has risen to around 9.5 AUD. I'm not entirely sure what the situation or scale is in other countries, but the bird flu epidemic is causing devastation due to the industrialization and scale of our farming. It's so bad, I am willing to bet the first stable human to human transmissible variant will form here in the US.
Thanks, $9 AUD is on the pricier end. I can make a conversion too but I find I need the context of the cost of living for it to make sense, hence why I compared it to other food prices.
Also- are these free range, cage free or cage eggs?
I couldn't tell you specifics, I read it recently in an article. It was the average for the whole country, so there will be quite a bit of variation. I don't buy many eggs personally.
