It may be time to start eating carp and gar again.
It’s a good thing useless things like food, energy, and gasoline are not included in inflation statistics. Otherwise it might appear the Obamarecovery is a myth.
Well, guess what...it costs more.
He was quoting a movie
“Where’s Beeks?”
You better buy a wheel barrel ASAP or you won’t be able to afford one soon. You’ll need one to carry your devalued dollars to the store to buy your rations.
There has been a perfect storm on cattle over the last year.
Exceptionally cold from the Texas Panhandle to the Canadian plains. Water restrictions in California. Drought in West Texas. California ranchers are selling parts or all of their herds to ranchers in Texas because of the lack of water.
But bammy gets all the wagu he wants.
It’s good to be the king.

I’ve heard from several sources that there is radiation from Japan making its way across the ocean to the west coast.
That would have to be affecting the fishing, would it not?
What do we get from there?
Chicken feet are full of collagen. Back when chickens were bought whole, plucked and headless from a butcher, the legs were skinned and then added to the soup to thicken it.
Most poor rural cultures utilize all the animal. Not sure at all about beaks and combs, though. I think I have seen some Asian recipes using combs. I know I have seen duck feet on Vietnamese menus.
Can’t be, there is no inflation /s
You ever see “Trading Places”?
The way things are going it's going to be crap and garbage soon.
I think this has more to do with last couple years drought in TExas and NM than CA.
It takes a while for breeding stock to get back to where it was.
We should all get used to TVP while it's cheap. Probably better for you than thecrap the USDA says is 'prime'.
That's "Beaks".
Not "beaks".
He’s all hat and we’re all no cattle.
During the early 70s meat shortage, some stores experimented with ground meat, and flavors and grains, and at least one of them that I tasted was tasty.
I would love to see someone come up with a grains and beef, and beef flavor mix that was cheap but still usable.
Yes the drought and the cattle that died in the winter storms are part of it, but feed has been going up every year also and that has been increasing the cost of poultry on up also.
Thank God for the ground venison from my husband’s hunting.
Also, in Texas and Oklahoma, many ranchers sold down their herds due to drought. That caused a short spike in supply to help prices, but now it is catching up.
