The Egg Problem: How Increasing Prices Are Changing Breakfast Menus in America.
Reading
Restaurants are having trouble because egg prices are very high. But restaurants are also using a lot of eggs, which could be part of the reason prices are high.
More people are eating breakfast at restaurants, and restaurants are adding more breakfast foods with eggs. This is happening at regular restaurants and fast food places.
Usually, there are enough eggs for everyone, but a bird flu outbreak means there are fewer eggs. This is making egg prices go up even more.
People are also eating out for breakfast more often, especially since the pandemic. Breakfast foods are seen as comforting, and they can be cheaper than other meals when food prices are high.
All of this means that restaurants need more eggs at a time when there are fewer eggs available. This is a problem for restaurants, and it's not clear when it will be solved.
