SEATTLE Luna Park Café was hit early Wednesday morning, with thieves stealing hundreds of eggs. The burglary highlights the challenges faced by businesses in a time of soaring egg prices, caused in part by the ongoing bird flu outbreak.
Heong Park, the owner of Luna Park Café, was alerted to the break-in by security cameras. However, just as he arrived, the culprits fled.
"I've owned a restaurant for 18 years, this has never happened to me," Park said.
The burglary comes at a time when eggs have become a rare and expensive commodity due to the bird flu epidemic, which has led to the culling of over 150 million poultry birds in the U.S. since 2022.

People are carrying on about the high price of eggs as if everyone needs to eat at least one egg a day or suffer dire consequences.
