Fish are currently available. Harvesting and processing labor is lacking big time.

You must have missed my post the other day, I bought a $19 Chuck roast, believe it was $7.97/pound.

That's about 85% of beef sold raw to consumers. What were you looking for?

I’ve already addressed The OT would never eat it, but the price really hasn’t changed. For us common folk.

Probably the 15% that's better, if I'm reading the clues right.

I paid 40/lb for some filets from chris’.

Not even prime (choice I think).

I didn’t even realize it until I got home.

They were awesome tho.

Deer meat is cheap. Hog is cheaper. Buy a freezer.

And you think I am kidding. They really want to do that- and they will do it in the name of climate change



The climate change folks are lapping up all of this Biden shite. The folks in charge are too…and you know damn well they’ll get their hands on a steak when they want one.

Supply and demand in light of the shite going on right now. I think a big part of it is China is buying up all the feed.

Imagine thinking this is the reason.

Inflation. It’s from poor monetary policy from the central bank which is printing money like there’s no tomorrow. Prices increase accordingly as a tax on poor people, but poor people are too stupid to understand this.

Hi Neighbor has “Un-Graded” steaks from Mexico. Ribeye and filet. You have to know how to look for marbling, but they are good if you catch a good cow.

The label just says “Ribeyes” and “Mexican Filet”
