A look at the real reasons behind soaring egg prices

Season 2025 Episode 79 | 7m 02s

Egg prices have soared to new records over the last couple of months. The wholesale price for a dozen white eggs climbed to over $8 in February. Since then, that price has dropped but the prices consumers pay at the grocery store are still high. Economics correspondent Paul Solman takes a look at what has been going on.
