A lot of people replied in the comments letting me know this should have been based on the price of eggs, but the joke is about out of touch rich people so I intentionally selected these particular grosseries.

I can’t tell if the misspelling of groceries is commentary or typography.
sorry it should read grokeries
Actually Grosseries is the best description of the US food supply I’ve ever encountered!
There are at least 200 comments about eggs on that thread .
And we are the ones that misunderstood? 200 comments that say your brain is stupider than ours This feels like 9 to 0 supreme court votes... Who do you think you are? trump?
and also the arrested development joke which ... is kind of implied...
that’s a joke about out of touch rich people
yes i wasn't saying you missed the joke. i was saying the joke you had left in was missed because so many people commented it.
On an egg run
That’s funny
I got the joke…. 👍 Now expose this guy… This is the guy encouraging all the cruelty…. He is the one who wants to destroy Democracy the most for money and power!!! He likes to hide in the shadows…. Don’t let him!!! www.thenerdreich.com/curtis-yarvi...

Maybe she was just being cautious not to Venmo her Coke dealer? Or she’d turned some tricks earlier in the day? This demands an investigation…
Honey, i forgot to buy bread, can you get a loaf please? Sure babe, where is the Wheelbarrow?
Hello Dustin!?! Wrong direction friend. Eggs are ony for rich people now EGG, singular, is us. Or... Maybe you are the one that is rich and out of touch? What you can afford 3 eggs? I have been saving for egg for 6 weeks now. Can't afford eggs
"what do you mean yacht prices are going up?"
Did you misspell groceries on purpose, or is it because you're also an out-of-touch rich person?
How much can a banana actually cost? $20? $50?
This... was my only goal with my salary. I don't want to have to look at the price tag for non-durable goods. If i start having to look at the price tags again, it's time to start looking for a new job with higher pay. Heh. (Bit of a pain with a large family)
.. clarify... non-durable, non-luxury goods.
Don't buy the milk. Saw a report today that the FDA is stopping milk screening due to lack of staff.
Groceries is that collection of items in a bag or something like that right?
I actually like the sound of the word "grosseries". It describes what Trump is doing daily.
"that ten pound bag of potatoes costs... $400" www.youtube.com/watch?v=a7-e...
Was thinking of the same bit :)
But what if EGG tho
🤣 “groceries” such an eloquent Victorian term. Touché
"Groceries, what a strange word. Groceries."
Cuz...
She was carrying 3K, not 3 million.
Where's the handgun you know she had?
You're hilarious 😂
Is grosseries a real word?
Well, for a whole gallon of milk, you may need a smidgen more.
I forget exactly when but in the past couple years there was a period of time when there were stories about inflation and the price of milk and there was a family that claimed they drank like 50 gallons of milk a month
This is about the first Bush, he mentioned the price of milk at a store but he had not been at a store for so long he had no idea how much it actually cost.
Granted, it’s a very old reference.
grosseries is so perfect
Agreed. “Eggs” makes “eggs” the joke. You wanted a different target and nailed it. Well done. 🤑
How many eggs do people eat? Bakers are complaining and I understand their concern but I just threw out two eggs because they were way past their shelf life. Two each its own. I purposely spelled ‘to’ wrong so no need to correct me. I’m in a I don’t give a damn mood.
Just put eggs in a bowl of water If they float they are bad
The expiration dates are only guidelines. Look in the fridge and glance at the expiration date on those jars of sauces that you have been using. I wouldn't be surprised if one or more has expired!
I try not to buy too much. I hate throwing stuff away. It took a lot for me to throw those eggs away, I really thought if I cracked them open two baby raptor dinosaurs would jump out and chase me around the house.
You can easily check whether they are safe to eat by floating them in water.. If they float- throw them out. My home grown eggs last for weeks
Eggs last a loooooong time
Family of 4 here, we eat about 24 eggs a week, only the two eggs in the (near) daily salad uses half....24 eggs is about $5 here Eggs can be months over due date and if they have gone bad you will know on the moment you open it.
That’s a great price!
Thanks. Since I’m a visual learner, this is spot on.

I mean, it's one banana, what can it cost? Ten dollars?
Explaining a joke always makes it funnier.
I thought you were revisiting that great Arrested Development bit
There’s always money in the banana stand.
