Amid the egg production shortage caused by the spread of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) in poultry, more than 50 local convenience stores, known for their made-to-order, on-the-go hot food options, have begun rolling out breakfast sandwiches called “Bird Flu Bailout.”

The classic menu item has been remixed and made with Just Egg, a plant-based egg substitute.

    Strange to think that a virus could potentially save so many yet unborn individuals from atrocity. Now we just need pig ebola and bovine SARS.

      Isn’t the virus causing the culling of lots of birds? I don’t think this is any better than if they were eaten. I mean, I guess these birds dieing early does mean they suffer less.
