Well, it's a good question. I mean, so you're right in the sense that they would say that they don't control the price of eggs because they don't price it at retail. Consumers, you know, ultimately it's up to the grocery store to determine what consumers will see.

So in theory, they could decide, hey, I'm going to give a massive price break to Kroger, but that doesn't mean Kroger, for example, hypothetically speaking, has to do that. They're still the ultimate arbiter of how much the consumer will pay for it, right? So couldn't they lower the price? They could.

I also think it's important to keep in mind that egg prices are on their way down and will probably come down, but they might spike back up again. The virus is still happening.
