I never saw them.

​​​I can remember living in Oklahoma in the 1970's and seeing the 1/2 dozen eggs in the stores.  I've seen them in stores in Chicago, and in stores up here in Wisconsin.

I visited my daughter in California, twenty years ago, and saw them in the stores out there.  I've seen them lots of places, when I travelled.

I think we are seeing them more often because of the Boomers.  We like smaller size egg and dairy products.  I know my friends complain when their families shop for them and bring back gallon milk jugs.
