This explains why pork shoulder has been available for $.89 per pound for
the last couple of months. Time to stock the freezer.

Vegetarianism beckons

Ain't it the truth. I don't mind cutting back. As a decent cook, it's
pretty easy for me. For people who depend more upon convenience type foods,
it's going to be more difficult.

I don't eat much meat here at home anyway. I prepare what meat I do buy to
go as long a way as possible. My diet tends to rely more upon
grains/legumes. But if the cost of soy beans is rising, my beloved tofu will
cost more too. And I started baking my own bread a while back and now the
cost of wheat is rising too.

<sigh>

I think the biggest shock for me has been the increase in the cost of eggs.
I do use quite a lot of eggs and the cost of them has doubled.

Time to get a few chickens I reckon!

Here (Minneapolis) Rainbow Foods has whole chicken for 88¢ a pound;
cut-up for 98¢. I suspect I won't see prices that low again for a
while.

It never goes down to what it was before. Remember when chickens were $.48
a pound and chicken farmers cut back on volume? Chicken went up to $.89 and
stayed there.

I bought a ten lb bag of leg quarters for 39 cents a pound Saturday. Was
in same store today and they're already up to 69 cents a pound. Only
time I buy the things is when the descendants are about to descend upon us.

Save some for one of our nearby neighbors, too. He's a diagnosed psychotic
and frequently off his meds. I've lost count how many times the police
have been there.

His crow is a constant flow of expletives, usually directed at his enabling
wife and his helpless children, and for some reason he seems to be prone to
doing this outside the house more than inside.
