Total eggs sold in USA in one year

Here are the exact numbers for the United States based on the most recent annual USDA data:

The US produces roughly 105 billion to 110 billion total eggs in a single year.

However, not all of those are sold to eat. Here is exactly where they go:

• Total Table Eggs (Sold for Food): ~90 to 93 Billion

• Shell Eggs: ~63 billion of these are sold directly in cartons at grocery stores.

• Breaker Eggs: ~31 billion are sold to specialized facilities to be cracked and turned into liquid eggs for food manufacturing, bakeries, and restaurants.

• Hatching Eggs (Not for Food): ~15 Billion

• These are fertilized eggs sold to hatcheries to breed the next generation of broiler chickens and laying hens.

Short answer: The US consumer market buys and eats about 90 to 93 billion eggs every single year.
