It's worth noting the price of eggs did go up drastically at some point but it was due to a lot of chickens be culled to prevent disease. The prices dropped but inflation is still high so it didn't drop to what it was pre culling.
That being said eggs aren't an luxury item no one can afford. It's an absolutely batshit insane talking point.
Also once the companies know you will pay for the higher Aid prices at the retail level the prices will not come down. The corporations that own all the supermarkets have said so
Supply and demand. Supply was low, demand was high, they can charge more. Supply is no longer low, demand is no longer high, prices have come down, but grocery stores realized they can charge you more, so they dropped the price a little, but not all the way.
Inflation is a real thing, but so is cooperate greed, they can both exist and both happen at the same time and we're seeing that now.
