The options that are given for this Bing homepage quiz are listed below:

A: Eggs
B: Milk
C: Bread

The correct answer to this Microsoft Rewards Bing HomePage Trivial quiz question is:

A: Eggs

See The Reason for That answer below:

The rising cost of eggs in the U.S. is affecting household budgets as more Americans are consuming more eggs and reducing their intake of beef and venison, according to data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The increase in consumption is also due to families using eggs as a main protein substitute. However, egg production in the U.S. has decreased due to the ongoing avian flu epidemic, which has infected nearly 58 million birds and led to a reduction in egg supplies and an increase in prices.

According to Consumer Price Index data, egg prices in December rose 60% from the previous year. The average price for a dozen large grade A eggs was $4.25 last month, according to figures from the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis. Some states are also experiencing difficulty in finding eggs on store shelves. However, overall egg supplies are still relatively stable as the total flock of egg-laying hens is only down about 5% from its normal size of around 320 million hens. The prices are expected to fall once new chickens without infection are born and grow to egg-laying age.
