Parents are struggling to find affordable eggs in their homes.

Some parents say their children rely on eggs as a “safety” food.

Some children who deal with disordered eating can get sick as a result of not being served their preferred food.

The egg shortage and rising prices can be dangerous for some children.

There’s a difference between eggs being a preferred food and having them be a safe option for kids with selective eating or food sensitivities.

If eggs are among a child's few safe’ foods, your recommendation is to prioritize purchasing the eggs that you do have access to.

If your child will eat a few other, more accessible foods, Cammarata recommends adding those in more frequently.
