COSTCO, known for maintaining consistent prices on staples, has fallen victim to the national egg shortage, according to a viral clip.

In a recent TikTok, one shopper captured footage displaying what seems to be a long line of Costco customers snaking through isles as they waited to purchase a carton of eggs.

According to Forbes, the median cost of a dozen eggs in the U.S. hit $4.25 in January. That is double the price from last year.

While inflation has contributed to the egg fiasco, the driving force behind the skyrocketing cost of eggs was an outbreak of bird flu which plagued chicken farms.

Now, shoppers are bearing the brunt.

Tik-Tok-user, @mr.nintendodog, was shocked to see how quickly a line for eggs had formed just after the store opened up.

"They just opened up and this is the whole line for eggs," the creator explained in the clip. "Yes, we are in a long line wrapping around the store for eggs at Costco." 

Not all the shoppers remained peaceful as they waited their turn.

In a second video, @mr.nintendodog, recorded a cluster of customers gathering around the stacked egg cartons.

Some people could be seen pointing with their hands in the air and others exchanging heated words.

"S**** getting real here at Costco," they commented. "fighting over eggs, this egg-demic here."

A group of employees appeared to be attempting to resolve the disputes over the egg cartons.

The comments section quickly filled with social media spectators up in arms over the ordeal.
