That's $3 for 15 eggs. Sadly not free-range, only cage-free.

Not sure if this is the best community for this post, does anyone have a better suggestion?

Buying eggs 15 at the times? Funny indeed.

I mean Norway sells them in packs of 6, 10 (occasionally), 12 or 18. But it is odd that a metric country would sell them in multiples of 6. Although I suppose 12 is a good number generally because it divides easily into 2, 3, 4, and 6 so splitting it is easier unless you have a family of 5.

And thus we ended up with a 12 hour clock most places

I have a family of 5 and splitting is never really a consideration. I guess some recipes could be a little easier with multiples of 2 or 3, but I usually just make as many as we'll eat. Sometimes that's 11 eggs, sometimes it's 5. There's no pattern.

My main consideration is what will fit in my refrigerator nicely. That's it.
