Earl Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 Price has increased from 28 to 35 pesos a dozen. That's a whopping 25% increase! And most of them are the size of pullet eggs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xena Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 Luckily there are many, many places to buy eggs lakeside. If PP’s eggs are unfairly priced buy them elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoneyBee Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 There was an interesting article in the "el informador" last week that listed the price increase of certain foods last year. As an example: Tomatoes 100% Onions 100% Eggs 40% Etc.. Wish I could get hold of this paper (I was reading it at the barber's shop last week).

hensley Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 We use to get our eggs there but it seemed like they went up every time we went. Got black eggs from Walmart once and never buy them there again. Super Lake has the freshest eggs on the counter in my opinion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoneyBee Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 Many thanks. (pretty scary if this becomes a yearly trend). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hensley Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 Read up on the refrigerated eggs, they are not very healthy because of all the chemicals they use to wash them. I would rather have the unrefrigerated ones that are fresher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ned small Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 The freshest eggs are at the Abarrotes right in your neighbourhood and probably within a stones throw so why bother with any other store and that goes for milk and freshly baked bread mostly twice a day too.

HoneyBee Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 Yes I buy my eggs and veggies at my local Abarrotes. I buy the eggs by the kilo and the fresh veggies arrive every morning from the Guadalajara main market (keep in mind that I live in an all Mexican working class neighborhood). But.. I also buy salami and cheeses at SL. Forgot to mention the freshly baked bread that in many cases is still warm from the oven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barcelonaman Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 Unknowingly bought vegetation eggs at SL today. 44 pesos kilo. Thought was pricey but never had these before.problem is I not vegetarian does it mean the hens were? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barcelonaman Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 Interesting article about food prices rising in general. Remember lpg has gone up around 30 percent in 2017 as well. https://www.informador.mx/economia/Canasta-basica-cuesta-10-mil-500-pesos-20180110-0098.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gringal Posted January 11, 2018 Report Share Posted January 11, 2018 If you're willing to pay around 60 pesos for an 18 egg carton, I've found that the "egg lady" who sells at both the Monday and the Tuesday markets has the best eggs I've had so far in Mexico. When you consider how many meals 18 eggs cover, it's not a bad deal at all. She also has good looking bacon and other meats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
