Probably at least a little irresponsible to not mention credible accusations of collusion and price-gouging? There was another, deadlier flu outbreak in 2015, but egg prices didn’t rise nearly as much then. I’ll buy that there’s increased demand, but there’s also been a lot less market competition in recent years.
