Paul Beiboer, Director of U.S. Sales and Business Development at Jungle Creations, discusses Facebook's latest News Feed overhaul and how it will affect a video's ability to go viral. Jungle Creations set the record for most video views in a single month on Facebook in December, with one of its videos reaching over 5.3 billion views. Beiboer isn't worried aboutthe company's video content succeeding with the new algorithm because Facebook is still a platform conducive to sharing. We also talk about Jungle Creation's relationship with chef and viral sensation Salt Bae. And the company recently opened a restaurant in London, inspired by Jungle Creations' "Twisted!" Facebook page.

Is U.S. Restaurants’ Breakfast Boom Contributing to High Egg Prices?
It’s a chicken-and-egg problem: Restaurants are struggling with record-high U.S. egg prices, but their omelets, scrambles and huevos rancheros may be part of the problem. Breakfast is booming at U.S. eateries. First Watch, a restaurant chain that serves breakfast, brunch and lunch, nearly quadrupled its locations over the past decade to 570. Fast-food chains like Starbucks and Wendy's added more egg-filled breakfast items. In normal times, egg producers could meet the demand. But a bird flu outbreak that has forced them to slaughter their flocks is making supplies scarcer and pushing up prices. Some restaurants like Waffle House have added a surcharge to offset their costs.
Trump Administration Shutters Consumer Protection Agency
The Trump administration has ordered the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to stop nearly all its work, effectively shutting down the agency that was created to protect consumers after the 2008 financial crisis and subprime mortgage-lending scandal. Russell Vought is the newly installed director of the Office of Management and Budget. Vought directed the CFPB in a Saturday night email to stop work on proposed rules, to suspend the effective dates on any rules that were finalized but not yet effective, and to stop investigative work and not begin any new investigations. The agency has been a target of conservatives since President Barack Obama created it following the 2007-2008 financial crisis.
