Egg Market Disrupted in U.S. as Cages Made Roomier

"Eggs are about to get more expensive, as California moves to make sure hen houses are roomy enough to allow the birds to lay down, stand up, extend their wings and dance around."

(I'll side with the chickens' right to move around. We don't eat eggs anyway.)

@hank: Does thins mean I shouldn't count my chickens until their hatched. This is nothing more than a left and right wing communist plot.

Hey! It's Spam and eggs in California !

Country Spam breakfast: It is possible to find Spam at a restaurant on the Westside. At Jack n' Jill's Too, they're using Spam in their country Spam breakfast with eggs. The meat is pan seared until crisp around the edges and served with sweet brown rice. It's topped with a fried egg, similar to the Hawaiian dish Loco Moco, with no gravy ($11).

When I saw this yesterday, my first thought was that this would boost real estate prices in Petaluma. Of course, Petaluma hasn't been "The Egg Basket of the World" in many decades.
