US egg producers to donate 53 million eggs in price case
Three big US food producers have been forced to donate 53 million eggs to American food banks and pay $3.3 million after 17 states sued them over alleged price fixing.
New York Attorney General Letitia James accused the businesses of colluding to raise egg prices. Officials said the average price of a dozen eggs in New York City reached $8.47.
