I have not bought any eggs in about a year or so. The price of food keeps increasing and this is one of the more egregious examples. Sure there’s the bird flu outbreak, but I wouldn’t be surprised if prices are being increased far beyond the actual cost.
USD$4.50 for 30 large eggs.
for context, i live in hong kong.
They are delicious, and super cheap. And turns out there’s even subscriptions for them. We bought 72 a couple days back for 15 euros at a local farm.
Eggs are awesome, they’re making my breakfast and lunch easier and better
I’ve moved on to tofu scramble. Not as good but cheap as still pretty tasty.
I just wing it honestly. I use firm/extra firm tofu and press it (put paper towels on both sides of the tofu and something heavy on top like a bowl of water and leave it for 15 minutes or so). The just fry it in maybe a tablespoon of oil with some seasoning. A little turmeric gives it a nice color and flavor.
Hash browns, onions and bell peppers go a long ways too if you have them around.
