its from La Michoacana it looks like which is a grocery store but focuses on the meat market bit. Great place to get meat, but everything else is higher priced compared to other places in Texas like Mi Tienda or Fiesta.

12 AA large eggs is about 4.50 at HEB. I can't imagine 18 would be much more.

I live in Texas and have never, ever seen egg prices so high as this. Even at a higher priced location like Sprouts.
If this is true, these have to be free-range, farm fed eggs. And even then, I know people who keep chickens and they don’t charge this.
I’m calling bullshit

They’re way cheaper at Costco, and you can buy more of them at once. At least where I live. That’s compared to this shit.

Please excuse my ignorance, but why are people so obsessed about egg prices? We don’t have eggs for days or weeks just as our normal lifestyle. Yes, we have them every so week or so but not as a mainstay. Do folks really have a dozen or three a week? Curious Edit - of course I would like egg prices to go down, obviously

My favorite part is the recent pivot to no pain, no gain and I'm sure his base is going to lap that right up.
