Attorney General Charity Clark today announced that Vermont will receive approximately 915,000 eggs and $56,000 as part of a settlement with the nation’s largest egg producers for colluding behind the scenes to raise prices.

“While consumers struggled to afford rising costs of basic groceries, the largest egg producers in the country were colluding to artificially inflate prices. They rigged the system and took money out of Vermonters’ pockets. This settlement holds them accountable and will support the Vermont Foodbank as it works to address hunger in our state.” – AG Clark
