Eggs Remain an Affordable Protein Source At a Time When Protein is All the Rage -- Market Talk

Dow Jones01-07

1027 ET - Protein is all the rage these days, and that bodes well for egg purveyor Cal-Maine Foods, whose CEO, Sherman Miller, is quick to remind investors that eggs remain an affordable source. At the same time, GLP-1 users are gravitating toward nutrient-dense foods, younger consumers are viewing eggs as an everyday staple and shoppers are more often willing to trade up to more expensive, premium varieties. "Put simply, eggs are leading on health, convenience and quality, and that combination is reshaping category growth in a way that we believe plays directly to our strengths," Miller says on a call with analysts.
