Who needs those high priced crawfish anyway? I sure don't.

Bought 5lbs 26-30ct shrimp for $5lb. Boiled them up with 6 mini ears of sweet corn and a boil bag of red potatoes. Way cheaper than crawfish and definitely more satisfying.

As much as I miss crawfish right now, I'm definitely holding off for as long as I can.

Prices will drop back down eventually, may not be this year tho

I’m curious how many sacks are being wasted right now due to high prices. Can’t be they are moving em fast enough to keep them alive.

Well according to Mr. Dallas Texas above, they dont care about the price they are paying it. They dont even look at the price.

If I saw this post and I were a crawfish farmer I might consider only selling in Dallas.

According to our national debt this seems to include around 99.5% of all Americans.

Yep

Houses
Cars
Groceries
Crawfish

Transitory inflation. All just a matter of time, right?

I say it all of the time. 5lbs of shrimp with the fixings can feed three folks. Easy.
