Texas AG Ken Paxton settled with Cal-Maine Foods, Inc. to resolve
allegations that the company engaged in price gouging by sharply
increasing the price of eggs during the COVID-19 pandemic in
violation of the state's consumer protection law.
Under the terms of the agreement, Cal-Maine must donate more than 2
