    I was being ironic. We have an egg marketing board, so prices don’t fluctuate very much. To be honest, I don’t really understand why us prices are consistently so much higher. Occam’s razor would suggest that it is Monopoly control of the market.

    We usually buy our eggs directly from local people who have free-range chickens. We end up paying CAD $5 a dozen, about $3.50 US. In the supermarket, eggs start at about CAD $4 a dozen.
