Just a reminder, if you're like me and never even look at organic stuff, check the organic eggs. They're cheaper at my store right now.

In Russia they hit record high of 1$ per pack of 10.
So are people treating this as a generalized sign of inflation, or are people actually worried about eggs?
Because if you're treating this as a gauge of inflation, it's a bad one, as there's a bird flu outbreak greatly affecting egg prices.
And if it's just concern about eggs... I don't get it. I mean, I think our household eats a lot of eggs, but a lot is like 2-3 dozen a week. And if eggs cost $2 more than usual, well, that's $6 a week. Meh? I doubt this is breaking the bank for many people.
Eggs are staple like bread or milk. It's a cheap source of protein and when the price goes up the people who feel it the most are the ones that are most sensitive to grocery prices. So yes, to you it might not seem like a lot, but to someone who's barely able to afford groceries it's life changing.

I’ve been paying $8ish for 12 the past 6 years. Apparently it’s cheap subsidized eggs that are expensive now. That’s because of bird flu no?
Mitchell and Webb situation - Chicken farmer
"You see that? It's made of chicken. It's actually made of chicken. You kill it; you got free chicken, you can sell it to people. Or... don't kill it, and fucking eggs come out of their arses! Fucking hell!"
