I just heard from a very reliable source that $40k worth of organic eggs were stolen off a truck in PA the other day. What's next? Chickens being kidnapped for their eggs?

I hope this topic isn't deemed political.

Makes me think of

The Great Canadian Maple Syrup Heist
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Canadian_Maple_Syrup_Heist
... the theft over several months in 2011 and 2012 of nearly 3,000 tonnes ...

What is that, three or four dozen?

At my age, the cost of eggs is inconsequential. I'll have a couple of real eggs, fried semi-runny in real butter, maybe every 6 weeks with corned beef hash, toast and jam. Other than that, it's Egg Beaters scrambled in a nonstick pan with a little cheese thrown in. Keeps my doctor happy with my numbers.

How would you peddle these? "Psst, hey buddy, I can hook you with some prime hen fruit..."

It's great that the price of eggs is the craziest thing that's going on right now.

If they were 'free' range eggs , then they weren't really stolen. Fake news.

It just the latest thing worth paying any attention to. The rest is all mindless chatter......
