About eggs
Eggs are the most volatile item in the game. Avian influenza outbreaks can double a country's egg price within a few months and pull it back down just as fast, so an egg price is as much a snapshot of this year's flock health as it is of local cost of living.
Where Germany sits
Of the 32 countries priced for eggs, Germany ranks #12 from the top at $3.91 — 1.1× the median of $3.46.
Germany has some of the cheapest groceries in Western Europe, largely because of intense competition between discount chains like Aldi and Lidl. Fuel goes the other way: energy taxes and levies make up roughly half the pump price.
