Rationing in the United Kingdom during World War II began in January, 1940. Eggs, meat, tea, cheese, and fruit were all rationed. To implement rationing, the government made wasting food a federal crime. The prices on these goods were raised, making it difficult to buy them.

Eggs were rationed to the general public in Britain because they were in short supply, and priority was given to feed the troops fighting the war.
