MONTGOMERY, Ala. (WSFA) - The scramble is on to put thousands of donated eggs onto the plates of hungry families after the nationâs largest egg producer made a huge donation to Alabamaâs food banks.
Cal-Maine Foods, Inc. delivered a shipment of 280,800 eggs - or 23,400 dozen for those looking for a carton count - from its location in Robertsdale to Montgomery Thursday morning.
The donation is especially generous because fresh eggs are not typically among items donated to food banks. (Source: WSFA 12 News)
