CBS reports that United States customs officials are cracking down on egg smugglers amid soaring egg prices.

According to U.S. Customs and Border Protection spokesman Roger Maier, Americans are trying to smuggle eggs from Mexico across the border.

We are seeing an increase in people attempting to cross eggs from Juarez to El Paso because they are significantly less expensive in Mexico than the U.S. This is also occurring with added frequency at other Southwest border locations, Roger Maier, U.S. Customs and Border Protection spokesman, via CBS.

San Diego U.S. Customs and Border Protection field operations director Jennifer De La O said in a tweet that her office , "has recently noticed an increase in the number of eggs intercepted at our ports.".

CBS reports that failing to declare agricultural items, like raw eggs, can carry fines up to $10,000.

According to customs rules, federal law prohibits certain agricultural products , "because they may carry plant pests and foreign animal diseases.".

The USDA banned eggs from entering the U.S. from Mexico back in 2012.

.

According to Border Report, the number of raw egg incidents reported at the U.S. border jumped over 100% in the last three months of 2022 compared to the year before.

Meanwhile, the cost of eggs has surged across the U.S. to reach an average of $4.25 a dozen, up from just $1.79 in 2021.

CBS reports that those prices have been driven by increased consumer demand combined with a decrease in domestic egg supplies due to an avian flu epidemic.

Trump Signs Orders Scrapping Biden-Era Rules, Targets Appliance And Consumer Product Regulations

President Donald Trump has signed a series of executive orders repealing key Biden-era energy regulations. These include controversial standards imposed on gas water heaters, household appliances, commercial refrigerators, and walk-in freezers. Backed by Republican lawmakers, the move is framed as a victory for American households and small businesses. Trump stated the repeals will reduce unnecessary burdens, lower energy costs, and return decision-making power to consumers. The orders aim to undo what Trump called last-minute regulations under Biden that hurt everyday Americans and stifled economic freedom in the name of overregulation. #Trump2025 #TrumpOrders #BidenEraRepeal #EnergyRegulations #ApplianceStandards #GasWaterHeaters #FreeMarket #TrumpRepeals #HouseholdAppliances #RegulationRollback #TrumpExecutiveOrder #BidenRulesScrapped #WalkInCoolers #CommercialFreezers #EnergyFreedom #TrumpVsBiden #HomeownerRights #RegulatoryReform #TrumpWhiteHouse #TrumpPolicies Also Read Trump Reacts to Indian Missile Strikes: 'It’s a Shame,' Calls for Swift Resolution :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-reacts-to-indian-missile-strikes-it-s-a-shame-calls-for-swift-resolution-4145511.html?ref=DMDesc Trump and Carney Face Off in Oval Office Over Trade War and Tariffs :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-carney-faceoff-oval-office-trade-war-011-4145443.html?ref=DMDesc What Donald Trump’s 100% Tariff On Foreign Films Could Mean For Indian Entertainment Industry | Explained :: https://www.oneindia.com/business/what-donald-trump-s-100-tariff-on-foreign-films-could-mean-for-indian-entertainment-industry-expl-4144927.html?ref=DMDesc
