Are powdered eggs really less expensive then grocery store eggs? Yes!
What to see the math? Here it is:
Background info on the numbers
One can of THRIVE powdered eggs costs $20.99 and there are 236 eggs per can.
In May 2011 on average in the US one dozen eggs costs : $1.692 (according to: the US department of Labor Statistics http://www.bls.gov/ro3/apmw.htm)
THRIVE Powdered Eggs (June 2011):
$20.99 / 236 eggs per can = $0.089 / egg.
Let’s just round up and say 1 powdered egg cost $0.09.
Grocery Store Eggs (May 2011) :
$1.692 per dozen eggs. $1.692/ 12 eggs = $0.141 per egg.
So let’s round down and say that one egg at the grocery store costs $0.14
The sum up:
One THRIVE powdered egg costs $0.09
One egg from the grocery store costs $0.14
