That's $3 for 15 eggs. Sadly not free-range, only cage-free.
Not sure if this is the best community for this post, does anyone have a better suggestion?

Why aren't the egss refrigerated?
The USDA requires eggs to be washed, which removes the natural protective coating. Then they need to be kept cool in a refrigerator.
Over there the eggs aren't required to be washed so the natural protective coating stays on. No refrigeration needed.
As someone who used to raise chickens, I know that the eggs can be covered in poop. Does this leave poop on the eggs in the store if they are unwashed?
Yeah, some of them could have some dried up poop on the shell. Not often and not many though. But you can wash them before you use them.
