The Real Reason Egg Prices Are Soaring: Bird Flu, Health Risks, and Compassionate Alternatives

If you follow a plant-based lifestyle, you probably haven’t noticed the soaring price of eggs—after all, they’re not on your shopping list. But the headlines about skyrocketing egg costs highlight a deeper issue that affects everyone, not just egg consumers. The main driver behind these price hikes isn’t inflation or supply chain hiccups—it’s the devastating impact of avian influenza (bird flu). When the virus is detected on a farm, the entire flock is culled to prevent the spread. Since industrial egg farms often house millions of hens in cramped conditions, a single outbreak can wipe out entire operations, causing significant disruptions to the egg supply and exposing the fragility of animal-based food systems.
