FOX10 Phoenix "US border authorities report increase in egg smuggling attempts as poultry prices soar amid inflation" "Authorities on the border are seeing more seizures of eggs and poultry as people continue to try and bring the much-needed foods into the United States amid soaring costs. U.S. Customs and Border Protection reports a 108% increase in seized egg products and poultry at ports of entry from Oct. 1 to Dec. 31 of last year, according to Border Report, a news outlet that focuses on the southern border.

Wasn’t that long ago busloads were heading south for prescriptions and dental work and all sorts of surgeries. Corona & Cartel prolly choked that a bit, eh?
Wife hit the store this morning. There’s enough bullshit on this box of eggs to choke a chicken . . .
• Grade A Brown Free Range Large Eggs • Free Range Certified Eggs • Certified Humane Raised & Handled • Raised Without Antibiotics • Vegetarian Fed • No Added Hormones**
** Federal regulations prohibit the use of hormones in raising poultry
Open Nature Free Range eggs are laid on family farms where the hens can forage, perch, and nest as they like, with room for flapping, dust-bathing and social interaction. The hens are free to roam inside and out, enjoying green grass, fresh air and sunshine as good weather permits. Vegetarian fed. Raised without antibiotics or added hormones (Federal regulations prohibit the use of hormones in raising poultry).
$4.49 for the dozen, btw.
I see now there’s another dozen in the fridge. These are Ethical Eggs from Happy Hens, Tended By Hand on Small Family Farms, Made with Fresh Air and Sunshine and Freedom to Forage Outdoors Year Round.
Cheese omelet w/a couple of slices of cinnamon raisin toast, btw.

It's a fowl situation, this egg shortage thing. The mockingbirds in my yard better look out this spring.

Free range?
If you have time watch the entire skit, one of the best. Yet Portlandia really was an understatement...
