I think it's important for us to know that this is not in the Chicago metro area.

Hi,

At Woodman's they offer medium eggs for around $2.10. I may buy two cartons of those, plus a dozen large eggs at just over $3.00 a dozen.

Medium eggs are 1.75 ounces and large 2.25 ounces. When I made a double batch of banana bread recently, I used five medium eggs. Most of the time the medium eggs are used for fried, scrambled or boiled eggs. The large used for recipes that really depend on that size, like for baking.

Egg laying hens produce larger eggs as they mature, I think there will be an abundance of medium for a while.

I was at both Whole Foods and Jewel today, and large eggs were $3.29 a dozen at Jewel. They were $3.39 for free range brown eggs at Whole Foods. I have never seen them for $1 a dozen anywhere since the pandemic started.
