I get that the point is inflation, but why eggs? If they went to $12/dozen, it would cost me like $4 extra dollars per week.

    I make a bunch of deviled eggs maybe once or twice a year. I don’t care for most other types of “easy” egg preparations and there are plenty of cheap beans, chicken, and cheap bits of pork for my protein needs.

    Tbh I don’t understand why people don’t just buy something else. There are several good alternatives available.

      Other things aren’t “breakfast”. While I understand that it’s only tradition that makes foods be for a specific meal, it’s hard to get around. Chicken is not a breakfast food.

      So where do you get protein in foods that identify as breakfast? Cereals and grains are mostly carb or fiber, not good sources of protein. Sausages and bacons are not lean and are not healthy foods. then there are eggs, and there are many ways to prepare eggs
