This is the best summary I could come up with:
Consumers can expect to pay more for eggs at the check-out in coming weeks as one of Australia’s biggest fast-food chains limits its breakfast times due to supply concerns.
It came as supermarkets imposed restrictions on how many cartons of eggs could be purchased in one transaction while Victoria, NSW and the ACT battled outbreaks of avian influenza.
“Like many retailers, we are carefully managing supply of eggs due to the current industry challenges,” a McDonald’s spokesperson said in a statement.
“We’re continuing to work closely with our network of Aussie farmers, producers, and suppliers, as the industry comes together to manage this challenge.”
“We’re expecting a short-term delay in stock from one of our egg suppliers in NSW, ACT and Victoria due to the temporary closure of one of their packing sheds,” a Woolworths spokesperson said.
“We’ve said to our store managers that if they feel like there will be stocking issues with eggs then they have the authority to make the decision and limit purchases to two [cartons],” he said.
