That’s an eggshell-ent development.
US border agents have seized more eggs than fentanyl in recent months as President Trump ramped up security to stop the flow of the deadly opioid — and egg prices have surged as high as $15 a carton.
Since October, border agents have seized 3,768 poultry-related products, whereas there were only 352 instances of fentanyl being confiscated, according to the Telegraph.
Cases of eggs being snuck into the country are up 36% since October compared to previous years, though areas along the border with Mexico — where a dozen eggs are still just $2 — are experiencing exceptionally higher rates.
In parts of Texas, seizures of smuggled eggs have risen 54%, while in San Diego, they have more than doubled, according to the report.
