    My grandparents were born in the early Mao era and they never had any problems finding enough clothes for everyone lmao.

    The thing with the eggs is true where they lived. Most of the time you'd sell the eggs at the local market so you could buy other stuff. Eggs were typically eaten during special occasions so it was like a delicacy.

      My wife's parents (in America) had chickens, and the one thing that seemed consistent about them was that they were very inconsistent. One year they'd have eggs to give away, the next they'd only get a handful. Under those circumstances it absolutely makes sense to sell some and get more shelf stable or immediately usable food
