Amid the egg production shortage caused by the spread of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) in poultry, more than 50 local convenience stores, known for their made-to-order, on-the-go hot food options, have begun rolling out breakfast sandwiches called “Bird Flu Bailout.”
The classic menu item has been remixed and made with Just Egg, a plant-based egg substitute.
The virus makes egg farming less profitable, potentially entirely unprofitable. That could represent billions or trillions of individuals never born into exploitation and atrocity.
