Imagine how big the carton must be
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Shopping for Gwinnett County inmates is a bit more complicated than schlepping to the grocery store every day.
Consider this: Last Tuesday, the Gwinnett County Commission voted to spend $211,000 for eggs for the county’s correction facilities and the Department of Community Services.
That’s right, $211,000 for eggs.
We figure that’ll buy you at least 1.27 million eggs (probably more, since the county’s buying in bulk).
That’s a lot of eggs.
We find it notable that the county’s renewing its egg contract just in time for Easter.
Does that mean a truckload of purple, pink, green and yellow dye is headed for the county jail?
