“Darn bacon is almost 6 bucks a pound.”
Consider yourself lucky.
Here in upstate NY our local TOPS store has Oscar Meyer regular grade bacon at $9.99 per pound (16 oz)!!
80% hamburger between $5-6 per pound. Store brand butter around $3.50+ pound. Brand name butter $4.30.
Thankfully we saw this coming and stocked up and vacuum-packed LOTS of meat this winter. IMHO, it is only going to get worse before it gets better.
I'm afraid to ask what the other 20% is. Is that number something about the fat content?
I can still get 90% for $5 on sale... but that will likely end soon.
Those prices are insane but the rest of us might be catching up
