According to the American Egg Board at http://www.incredibleegg.org there are roughly 75 billion(yes with a b) eggs produced in the United States each year. Of those about 60% are used directly by consumers, 9% are used in food service (restaurants) and the remaining 31% is used in commercial food preparation, either in prepared foods for restaurants or consumers, or the production of mayonnaise, salad dressings, cake mixes, or other products with eggs in them.

That means the average American goes through 246 eggs (give or take) a year between home preparation, restaurants, and eating dishes or condiments that have egg in them as part of the preparation. That may seem like a lot, but it breaks down to about 20 eggs a month. The AEB did not break down by how many eggs are eaten on their own (scrambled, fried, poached, in an omlette, etc.) versus prepared in other dishes (like creme brulee, souffle, or quiche).
