12 Eggs. = $1.18

$25.34 Kansas City, Missouri, prices in Tallahassee, Florida a slightly higher, but not much different.

FWIW - I was in New York last week, the prices there seemed to be about 20 - 30% higher than in Missouri.

I do see a correlation between gas and milk prices..
A cow and a Petro-chemical refinery!!! Who would'a thunked it ???? LMAO

So in Norway the chicken is cheaper than the eggs. Interesting, I thought eggs always came before the chicken....or was it the other way round?
