Canadians Are Sharing Their Egg Prices, And Americans Aren't Happy About It

In some places in the US, it’s over $13 a dozen!!!

Well, the price of eggs aren’t so high everywhere.

Canadians are sharing the prices of their eggs, and they’re dramatically cheaper:

As this person on Reddit explained, that’s about $2.75 USD a dozen.

FWIW, that checks out on the Walmart Canada website, where the price is the same.

Across social media, Canadians are sharing pics of their eggs.

This person from Montreal shared some eggs that are $2.62 a dozen.

Another person shared some eggs that are about $2.75 a dozen.

A 2023 article from Global News explained that Canada hasn’t been hit as hard by egg price spikes because of its supply management system, which regulates production, imports, and prices to ensure stability.

Canadian farms are smaller and more geographically spread out, which can reduce the risk of widespread issues like bird flu.

According to Global News, “The average egg farm in Canada has about 25,000 laying hens. In contrast, the average farm in the U.S. has about two million birds.”

Ultimately, I’m not gonna lie, I was genuinely surprised by the prices in my grocery store the other day.

As this person joked, “Americans soon gotta start driving to Canada for eggs.”
