    In a rare apology from the Russian president, Putin said during his end-of-year press conference that insufficient imports and demand are to blame for the hiked prices.

    “I’m sorry about this problem. This is a setback in the government’s work,” Putin said on December 14. “I promise that the situation will be corrected in the near future.”

    Holy shit. Russians are serious about their eggs!

    Look, it isn’t hard to substitute eggs in recipes. You can use applesauce, banana, chia seeds, flax seeds, or tofu. (To be fair, though, I don’t know what those cost in Russia as compared to eggs.)
