What is the cause for the sudden increase in price for eggs?

Asked by jonsblond (43741points) September 11th, 2011

I could buy a carton of 18 eggs for $2.24 last week at Walmart. They are now $2.99. The price for a dozen eggs was $1.99 today, up from $1.32 last week.

Why such a sudden increase in price?

I also noticed a large increase in canned store brand vegetable soup. I had to buy ramen instead, thanks to the price increase. there goes my healthy lunch. :(
