Was at Costco yesterday. The meat was in full stock. Wife was at supermarket, same thing.
Meat was in full stock but there was a limit on how many packages you could buy.
Ainsley airhead was on faux new just this morning scaring the masses about the coming meat shortages. Thanks, now the locusts will wipe out every meat counter just like they wipes out the TP aisle.
Gotta keep ‘em scared.
Ground beef (fresh)
Sirloin (fresh)
Ground beef (frozen patties)
Ground beef, grass-fed (frozen patties)
Gluten-free chicken nuggets
Chicken patties (frozen)
All nonsense.
I read a day or two ago that the US has something,what was the number, on the order of, thousands of TONS of frozen pork loins in storage.
The meat-cutting plants closed down, are primarily for pork.
The rest of the issue is that the packaging is different for shipment/sale to stores, vs. restaurants. The vast quantity of food sold through restaurants, and the sudden shift to everyone eating at home, means they don't have enough packages; and there's the little issue of shipping: scheduling the loading of trucks, and existing contracts with different trucking companies for taking stuff to restaurants vs. groceries.
This is all Chinese (they own Smithfield) / George Sore-Ass / Bill Gates (he's pushing non-animal imitation meat with AlGore) / Nancy Pelosi (crash the economy to elect Hillary when Joe Biden gets dementia) bullshit.

Costco steaks are in the $35 to $55 range.
I cannot bring myself to buy any.
