      I’d risk the blockage, and subsequent rectally destroying diarrhea, trying to eat that much eggs Benedict.

      More importantly, how much butter are we going to have to steal to make enough hollandaise sauce?

      With the current rising cost? (Thanks Obama)
      On the black market of course.

      I’m honestly wondering if it was a hired job from a local factory, or maybe even a large producer.

      There’s just no way. There are obviously channels to sell farm products in large quantities but you’d need an established relationship to not trip every red flag in sight.

        That’s what I thought. But maybe there are places where you can just pull up with a truckload of really cheap eggs, stick a sign on the side of the road that says “Farm Fresh Eggs” and be out of there before anyone thinks to ask where you go them.

        But if places like that exist, they still seem kinda risky when there is a recent “100K eggs stolen” headline. 😂

          Right, like that’ll work for moving maybe a couple hundred, but not on the scale of 100,000.

          As a European programmer, the comma-period-decimal struggle is real.

          Most higher level programming languages don’t accept commas, so decimals are started by a period, and thousands can sometimes (varies by language) be separated by underscores.

          For example, these are all valid number notation:

          1.00
          0.000001
          1_000.00
          1_000_000
          1_0_0_0_0_0_0.0_0
          

          If you use the final one frequently, though, your employment may experience a period too.

    That means each egg is worth 40 cents. A dozen being 2.40$. I thought you guys were paying 6+$ for a dozen? Or is the 40k number before the stores profit margin.

      12x $0.40= $4.80 That matches/slightly exceeds prices I’ve been seeing.

      Your arithmetic is off by a factor of 2.

      a dozen ‘organic’ eggs being $2.40 sounds like a current producer price to a distributor. difference between that and the shelf price is profits for someone somewhere along the distribution chain.

      $4 a dozen seems to be common for the low end outside of large cities, there’s definitely some weird math.

      A dozen regular (not fancy) eggs are about $5 where I am.
