MARKET COMMENT: Prices
are trending 1 cent higher on large
sizes, unchanged on mediums.
Cartoned egg orders are fair to
good and generally best where
featuring is a factor. Supplies of
jumbos and extra large are
reduced as a result of hot humid
weather conditions and orders are
frequently cut.
Supplies of large are irregularly
distributed and range from fully
adequate to tight. Mediums and
smalls are easily available and
offered as attractive feature items
with only limited success.
Heavyweight gradable nest runs
are sought in many quarters.
Undertone fully steady to firm.
