INDIANAPOLIS (AP) Animal health officials investigating a bird flu outbreak in southwest Indiana have ordered 156,000 chickens at one of 10 affected commercial poultry farms to be euthanized, raising the total number of birds to be killed above 400,000.

The egg-laying chickens were housed at one of the 10 commercial farms where turkeys had been infected with the H7N8 virus and were at a high risk of contracting it themselves, Indiana State Board of Animal Health spokeswoman Denise Derrer said Tuesday.

Eggs were sold out at Trader Joes for the last few months unless you got there early.

But a few days ago, I noticed lots of eggs there in the late afternoon. So the shortage seems to be ending.

That's wild. We've had no shortage ever here in IL with eggs. Wife does the grocery shopping because 2 items becomes 20 and $150 more with me. We consume what I buy but it pisses her off.

Got 12 pork chops for $6 yesterday. 2-3 meals for $2/nt ain't bad for 5 people. Then got some pre-seasoned taco meat buy one get one for $4. Easy taco meal when the wife travels for work.

We have low beer prices, but I might start a beer price thread. I don't do hard liquor, but travel a lot and have a rough idea. Would be interested to see prices in different locations based on brand and quantity. $15.99 for a 30 pack of Busch in Northern IL. Used to be $10.99 before Biden. And yes, Busch gets a bad rap but it's actually not a bad beer.

Down here in SoFla ironically domestic beer is like $18 for a 12 pack and $22 for a 18 pack.
But I can buy Becks and St Paully Girl at the corner store for $12.99 a 12 pack. Damn wookie it sounds like beer is cheap where you are.
But I'm not a Bush fan. I'm not a fan of most domestic beers, since we started flash fermenting our beer in the 90's.
I used to believe that all America needed was one beer, and that beer was Budweiser. I didn't understand all of the beer snobbery.
It's as if some shitty America hating Liberal fucked up our beer, and introduced flash fermenting, just so the beer snobs could be right.

In WNY the cheapest quality beer is Molson Golden - 24 12-oz bottles for $21.59. Cans and 11.5 oz cases are cheaper. Lots of $8 per case rebates, but these are only good for a case or two per offer.

High Life is maybe $5 cheaper per case, but when you compare the % alcohol (3% vs. > 5% for Molson) then it's a wash.

The “catch,” according to Humptedy-CNN, was that falling omelet prices had nothing at all to do with Trump. Of course. It was pure coincidence that he promised to bring egg prices down, focused the entire government on the problem of consumer costs, and ordered the CDC to stop culling chickens like psychotic bird executioners in a psychedelic slasher movie.

Grocers were delighted. “I think the story is over on eggs right now. We got plenty of eggs coming in,” said Stew Leonard, Jr., owner of the Stew Leonard’s grocery store chain in the northeast. “We’re back to low-price eggs again,” Stew happily concluded.

That’s not all! Three days ago, WSYR-TV ran a story headlined, “National gas price average nearly 40 cents lower than last year.” Boom. Think of it: gas is now forty cents lower than last year when Joe Biden was draining the strategic petroleum reserve faster than a 22-year old rugby player at a frathouse kegger.

Here in Florida, gas just broke through $3 a gallon. USA Today quietly reported the story late last week. “State gas prices,” the paper reported, “declined last week and reached an average of $2.94 per gallon of regular fuel on Monday.”

And as I’ve told you all along — gas prices affect the price of everything. Lower fuel costs mean lower food costs, lower shipping costs, and lower inflation across the board.

It hasn’t even been 100 days. And despite every hysterical prediction from the Democrats, the globalist parasite class, and their captive media, the future is looking bright.

It is to an extent. Prices have doubled over the last decade though. I think FL has a higher sales tax on alcohol. When I fly down there I'll legit check 2-3 bags with beer because it's so expensive in FL. Saves me $60-100 instead of buying it down there. One of the benefits of bags flying free and having 3 kids.

They were selling for $6 back last January

Cal-Maine Foods Inc down about 5% year to date.

Also chicken legs are now $1.19 a pound at Walmart.

I remember when they were $1.25 a pound about two years ago.

VICTORY: Egg Prices Recover as Mass Culling Declines Under Pressure

Backed by science, advocacy, and frontline action, our efforts helped shift catastrophic policies driving food inflation and unnecessary animal loss.

Earlier this year, we relentlessly exposed the catastrophic consequences of mass culling for H5N1 bird flu:




... These efforts likely contributed to a significant reduction in mass culling since March 2025—reflected in RFK Jr.’s statement:"Most of our scientists are against the [H5N1 bird flu] culling operation."

If you care about the price of eggs, you may want to focus on your income. It's a trivial amount for something that one person might eat a dozen in a week. You paid more in gas to get them from the store.

Not really a mountain I'd die on is all I'm saying. Other products went up a lot more that hurts the consumer. $156/yr more on eggs isn't going to bankrupt you. If it does you're probably on food stamps anyway and it's free.

It's not about that per se, it's about mass culling as the only solution to livestock diseases. Imagine an outbreak of foot and mouth disease in cattle and mass cullings would do to beef prices

Don't let them put the slippery slope before you. Haven't you learned with all the fag tranny shit? Give them an inch, they take a mile, and traffic your kids after they lop their genitals off.
