Most of the factors driving up costs are relevant only to factory farming. Pasture raised (not free-range, which is a bullshit qualifier) eggs haven't had a proportional increase and I think the increase they have had is from greater demand because there isn't as large a price gap anymore. Factory farming has got to go. I understand everyone needs to get fed but if the land used to grow corn to turn into fuel was instead used to raise animals then factory farming would be unnecessary (it probably already is unnecessary but it's profitable so it continues).
