That means each egg is worth 40 cents. A dozen being 2.40$. I thought you guys were paying 6+$ for a dozen? Or is the 40k number before the stores profit margin.

a dozen 'organic' eggs being $2.40 sounds like a current producer price to a distributor. difference between that and the shelf price is profits for someone somewhere along the distribution chain.
12x $0.40= $4.80 That matches/slightly exceeds prices I've been seeing.
Your arithmetic is off by a factor of 2.
lol wtf, i guess my brain froze while i was typing this. I was thinking of a standard 6x package of eggs like i have it in my shelf but typed dozen...
$60.000
Why so many zeros after the decimal point? Do you deal in 1/10 cents much?
"What's that got to do with the price of eggs?"
To the moon
This is their leader.
I was always told not to count your eggs before they hatch...
How do you fence 100k eggs??!!
With the current rising cost? (Thanks Obama)
On the black market of course.
Thieves poached about 100,000 eggs...
that's a lot of eggs benedict.
More importantly, how much butter are we going to have to steal to make enough hollandaise sauce?
I'd risk the blockage, and subsequent rectally destroying diarrhea, trying to eat that much eggs Benedict.
