This podcast discusses the significant increase in egg prices in the US, primarily due to a widespread bird flu outbreak resulting in the culling of over 120 million egg-laying hens. The podcast explores the impact on businesses like a Richmond cafe that relies heavily on eggs, highlighting their price increases to compensate for higher egg costs. A key point is the debate within the poultry industry regarding the use of a bird flu vaccine, with egg producers favoring vaccination while broiler chicken producers oppose it due to potential export market disruptions. The podcast concludes with uncertainty about the future of egg prices and the potential for changes in the American breakfast landscape.
