Norwegians face a shortage of a key ingredient for Easter festivities: eggs

DEBBIE ELLIOTT, HOST:

Good morning. I'm Debbie Elliott.

Demand is so strong that some stores on the Swedish side of the border report running out. Others have limited the number of eggs a customer can buy, putting a nix on egg-stravagant (ph) grocery runs.
