Photo taken yesterday (2025-02-08) at a supermarket in Kyoto, Japan.
Alt text: A picture of the eggs section in a Japanese supermarket. There's a 10-pack of eggs going for 215 Japanese Yen, which is about 1.42 US dollars.
You guys are all lucky I'm not in America anymore or I would delete all of these cheap egg photos for being COMMIE TRASH.
But now I'm in the UK and eggs are a reasonable price. Not that cheap, but reasonable.
Carry on.
Imagine the crazy quality egg you get in Japan for basic american egg money.
Wait till you see our healthcare prices.
Orthoepoedist visit and back medicine for two months.
Do not be fooled! These are WOKE DEI eggs from the Deep State. They have pronouns and are full of chemtrails and vaccines.
Yeah but their eggs don't have salmonella and bird flu.
If you want that in there you gotta pay extra
Man this is like 𝘢𝘭𝘭 food in Japan too. The food is dirt cheap and so much better quality
Now I'm really craving some boiled eggs... Fortunately they're worth around $3 USD here for a dozen!
Are Japanese folks immune?
The standards for eggs are really strict in Japan, eggs are so safe already that eating raw eggs is a commonly accepted practice.
I like to imagine they have higher standards at their laying facilities, but theirs could be just as monstrous as our filthy torture facilities that produce most cheap eggs here.
Maybe bird flu just hasn't gotten there yet.
The US consumers are getting shafted.
The crazy thing I used to pay about this amount ~200 yen 11 years ago. I lived in Japan from 2010 - 2014.
Japan was largely allergic to price increases, especially as wages remained largely stagnant. Corona began to see some things slide and Russia also had an impact that, coupled with a yen weakening compared to the dollar, basically opened the floodgates on price increases. It's in the news basically every week now. Rice is double what it was a few years ago.
Japan was largely allergic to price increases
That's one way to put it. This is another https://www.nomuraconnects.com/focused-thinking-posts/japans-three-lost-decades-escaping-deflation/
I remember that one company apologizing for a ten yen price increase on ice cream.
I get local (I think free-range, but don't recall) for 400 yen/10. I think "regular" eggs are about the same (edit: same price as in your pic) up here in tohoku
