Eggs are one of the most affordable protein sources in Guatemala, consumed daily by most families. They are served scrambled, fried, or in dishes like huevos rancheros. Guatemala produces most of its eggs domestically, with large operations in Escuintla and Guatemala departments. Prices are quoted per dozen (cartones of 30 eggs are common in bulk).
