"The amount we could export would not solve their egg shortage," says the head of the Finnish Poultry Association.

US authorities have turned to Europe for help with the country’s severe egg shortage. The shortfall is due to bird flu, which has plagued the United States for several years.

The Finnish Poultry Association says it has been contacted about exporting eggs to the US.

    Don’t give them any eggs and let them see how destructive the Trump regime really is when completedly isolated from the rest of the world.

      I’m personally dealing with this daily working in a grocery in America. They will NEVER EVER understand. It’s impossible. The people who elected Trump refuse reality. Every single one of them is cussing and pissed off and shitting their pants over the eggs, but not a single one of them will ever accept that Trump is making the situation far far worse (like when he caused thousands to die from COVID).

      But at least if the entire country collapses like it seems it’s about it, we can have a revolution and see him in gallows.

      In the meantime I’m just not able to have any eggs. Oh, fun fact also, conservatives made it illegal to own chickens in my city. 🙃

        How the fuck is this possible. Can they really control what the fuck you do in your garden?
