    That means each egg is worth 40 cents. A dozen being 2.40$. I thought you guys were paying 6+$ for a dozen? Or is the 40k number before the stores profit margin.

      a dozen ‘organic’ eggs being $2.40 sounds like a current producer price to a distributor. difference between that and the shelf price is profits for someone somewhere along the distribution chain.

      12x $0.40= $4.80 That matches/slightly exceeds prices I’ve been seeing.

      Your arithmetic is off by a factor of 2.
