Waffle House has added a 50-cent surcharge per egg to all its menu items due to the rising egg prices stemming from bird flu.

“The continuing egg shortage caused by HPAI (bird flu) has caused a dramatic increase in egg prices,” Waffle House said in a statement on Monday. “Customers and restaurants are being forced to make difficult decisions.”

The company added that it will adjust the egg prices based on market conditions going forward. Since December, the average price of a dozen eggs have climbed to $4.15 with the Agriculture Department predicting a 20 percent price increase this year, according to WCSC.
