For the first time since 1980, when Bureau of Labor data began, the cost of a carton of eggs is higher than the price of a pound of beef.
Last month, consumers paid $4.82 on average for a dozen eggs and $4.64 for a pound of ground beef. A year ago, they were paying $1.93 for eggs and $4.77 for beef.
