Prices ranged from unchanged to
slightly higher on whites, balance of
trucklot items were usually unchanged

sive as some traders anticipate some
competitive pricing in the near future.

rent needs. The undertone was mixed
and unsettled. Liquid and frozen eggs
(ingredients included) processed under
federal inspection in the Eastern region
for the week ending April IS, 2000 were
3 % more than last week, and 8 % less
than a year ago. Shell egg suppliers were
sufficient for needs.
