I remember one time at least 2 years ago the wife and I stopped there for the first time and we saw they had fresh cracklins. I asked how much a lb. and the guy behind the counter said they usually sold it by the quarter pound and it was $7.50----------so I'm quick with the math and that worked out to $30 a lb. which was insanely priced.

Then she asked about beef hot tamales and the guy said they were out but we could put some on hold in the next shipment so we did that for 3 dozen.

Two days later I get a call that they are in and I go to get them and that bill came to $53 since they sell them not by the dozen, but by the pound and some packages are bigger than others. Worked out to almost $17 a dozen plus tax.

Haven't bought them since.
