Food prices fluctuate as businesses struggle with inflation.

The average price of eggs in the US fell by 7% in February due to a decrease in demand after the holiday season and farmers rebuilding their supply of egg-laying hens after avian flu led to the slaughter of over 58 million birds. However, experts predict that prices will rise again, with the USDA predicting a 37.8% increase in 2023. Dollar Tree has already stopped selling eggs due to inflated prices. Consumers may opt for fewer eggs or plastic eggs filled with candy and prizes for Easter.
