概要
 In February 2025 a Washington, DC bakery was paying more than double the year before for eggs and raised prices on about a third of its menu. Bird flu was real: more than 40 million laying hens died in 2024. But by one opinion writer's account, the price on many commercial egg contracts follows a published quote built from a thin cash market. In June 2026 the Justice Department and 17 states announced settlements with three big producers over claims that they coordinated bids into that market. The companies admitted no wrongdoing, and the settlements still need court approval as far as we can tell. Tess and Ray follow the egg from the cash market to the bakery invoice. They give the producers' side a full hearing, then look at the slow part nobody talks about: the price coming back down. Some places dropped their egg surcharges and some places' prices stuck. The episode ends with one question to ask your supplier on Monday. This is general information, not legal or financial advice.
