The Vegan America Marketplace Daily Update 🌱

Eggs are everywhere — from breakfast plates to baked goods — but what many don’t realize is the scale and impact behind each one. In the U.S. alone, over 96 billion eggs are produced every year. To meet that demand, more than 300 million hens are used in production — most of them confined to overcrowded facilities where they live in extreme confinement, unable to engage in natural behaviors. Even in "cage-free" systems, hens often suffer from stress, injury, and shortened lifespans.

What’s more, egg production contributes significantly to environmental degradation, including greenhouse gas emissions, water pollution from waste runoff, and high feed consumption — it takes around 4 pounds of feed to produce just a dozen eggs.

But the good news is: we no longer need eggs to enjoy the foods we love.

Thanks to innovation, there are now delicious and effective plant-based egg alternatives made from mung beans, flax, chickpeas, and more. Whether you're baking, scrambling, or binding, vegan eggs offer a compassionate, sustainable, and healthy way to cook.

🌱 Visit Vegan America to explore our Vegan Egg Collection, featuring the best animal-free egg substitutes on the market. And don’t forget to browse our full pantry section, where you’ll find a wide range of 100% vegan staples to support your plant-based journey.

Cook with care. Choose kindness. Make every meal matter.
