Congress is on holiday break. Sheep have been scarce, too.

Nothing other than personal observation but I’ve seen the local hipster crowd move from breast to thighs. If it’s a nationwide culinary thing that may be a contributing factor.

It’s not just chicken. Have you seen bacon? It’s all going to China especially since they now own Smithfield.

Congress left for the holiday without passing the farm subsidies. Prices are going to rise across the board—food, animal food, etc.

Have you forgotten that little law that was passed in California a few years ago that mandated that chicken had to be raised in a humane way? This of course caused the price of chicken to go way up.

I don’t recall chicken thighs particularly but the last time I was shopping it seemed many things had gone up in the last month. I even emailed my daughter mentioning that.

I used to buy chicken thighs and drumsticks for only 29 cents a pound. I would grill them and they were really tasty. I did not put anything on them but salt and pepper.

Why are my Chicken Thighs suddenly So Expensive?

My guess is because mrs bill is getting ready to announce her intent to become president and they are getting ready for runs on the "hillieri clinton special".

The "one huge left wing" need will siply mean that the normal packages of hot wings or buffalo wings dishes will consist entirely of right wings for some time to come.

Note too that I made no mention of her getting elected to the position. After the other debacles when leftwing radicals were selected for the position (BJ and Barky being two of the most prominent among them) despite their obvious criminal tendencies, I have no faith that anything at all like a free and honest election is going to occur.

Thank the gouls who have decreed that corn should be turned into alcohol to blend with gasoline. It all has to do with what turning food into fuel has to do with the price of food in general. Get on your soap box and start yelling obsenities at the EPA etc who are responsible for this terrible injustice that results in more polution because alcohol is less efficient as a fuel than gasoline.

The cost of anti-bloating agents used to preserve the chickens appearance, has through the roof. The anti-bloating agents are used to make the chicken smell and appear as real chicken. In addition to giving the breading or batter an appealing texture instead of that lake foam look.

Last week Kroger had chuck roast on sale at $1.99 lb. . I got forty pounds and canned 41 pints of the wonderful stuff.

It's called 'food stamps'. More dollars are now chasing the same amount of goods. Chuck roast is now $5/lb in case you haven't noticed. I no longer can afford beef (but people on food stamps can).

I’m glad you asked this because I’ve seen the same thing in Oakland.

I’m hoping it’s because the turkey shortage at Thanksging caused a lot of people to buy chicken, resulting in a temporary chicken shortage. I hope the price goes back down soon, but I don’t really know.

Maybe if you work out more it will improve.
