Summary: Could be related to Avian Flu epidemic

If this turns out to be east-coast related, we just several months ago went
through a really bad Avian Flu epidemic.  They had to destroy some thousands
of birds and quarantined everything (I know because my parking lot is right
next to the chicken coops - great cow college of the east :-) - and they had
these big yellow quarantine stickers on all the doors.

So perhaps prices were artificially high and are just now getting back down to
'normal'.  I think I read something in the paper about abnormally high egg
prices because of the epidemic..
