Frozen Eggs
AUGUST 30, 1996
Prices were unchanged to slightly lower
for whole egg, and unchanged for the
balance of items. The market tone was gen
erally steady. Demand, was light as buyers
waited until after the Labor Day weekend
to inquire for future needs. Floor stocks
were about adequate. Raw material offer
ings increased under a barely steady mark
et tone, and most breakers limited purch
ases. Edible liquid and frozen eggs (ingre
dients included) processed in the Eastern
region under federal inspection for the
week ending August 24, 1996 were 346
less than last week, and 346 leu than the
lame week yew.
