This is a good time of the year for groundhog on the grill. A great treat for a Memorial Day cookout.
I laughed while munching a double bacon burger.
At the local Food Lion, London broils were $7 about 2 years ago. Had gone up to $10 and $12 so I stopped buying them. Yesterday, $23! Someone is really engaging in price gouging.
Since restaurant industry worldwide has been immolated in the Covid fire, there’s plenty of Meat at the market over here.
Wow, from $7.00 to $23.00? If that isn’t price gouging, I don’t what is.
Give me a piece of sirloin (medium rare),a cheeseburger (ditto) or a nice piece of chicken and I'm as happy as can be.
Always been that way...always will.
I went to the grocery at the onset of all this. I really only needed a few odds and ends, Id already done a serious refrigerator-filling trip.
The place had been pretty well picked clean of many items. No milk, no eggs, no chicken, no beef, no paper products, etc.
However there was this one end-cap coffin freezer sitting there that was fully stocked. It had the Beyond Burger and similar products. I wish I had taken a picture.
Our local Sav A Lot had T-Bones for $3.99/lb. Didn’t have to tell me twice.
Been eating wild game for almost 70 years, primarily Elk, Whitetail and Mule deer. Don’t eat elk much anymore but still put 2-3 deer a year in the freezer. Lately I’ve been hunting Axis deer, buddy has an exotic ranch and has to cull the doe’s every couple of years.
At our local “grocery giant”, there’s occasionally meat left from the prior day’s cutting (T-bones included). They mark it way down so as to get rid of it and make room for that day’s cutting. People snap them up fast. Not a bad arrangement — people get a bit of a bargain, and the store doesn’t have to throw meat away.
End of meat? I didn't realize "wild game" does not contain any meat.
One duty of meat-eaters should be to encourage vegans to eat the fake meat products, with its unhealthy components, so that the benefits of heart disease, obesity, cancer can humanely wipe out the vegan Karens of the world. Sarcasm?? No, i don’t think so; its Freakin Friday.
Read the whole title.
I don't think this person has ever looked at the shopping cart of a poor person (Food Stamp purchaser.)
All carbs, soda and processed food. Very little healthy protein or healthy vegetables.
Before I would eat any fake meat, I would rather no meat at all. I hate those Wonton soups and refuse to eat them. My son and husband love them, to me they’re nothing but flavored water with some noodles in them. I want a real soup, but I hate vegetable soup.

Ahhh.... a stone soup eater
The old woman went to the square and built a nice fire and suspended a kettle over it, Into the kettle she placed three stones. Later, people came by and put vegetables and bones and some meat into the kettle
She made soup from nothing
We got london broil at Sprouts about 3 weeks ago for $2.99
