The Biden Admin’s National Economic Council Director Brian Deese said rising food prices are nothing to be alarmed about because it’s only chicken, beef and pork.

Poultry, beef and pork are only the three major protein staples in nearly every American household.

So, if you take out all the stuff that has increased in price, there’s hardly been any inflation? Yee-Haaa!

Don’t they usually exclude food and fuel prices when figuring inflation?

Yeah, like those things don’t count.

I can’t find any good sale items in the grocery ads anymore. The ads completely disappeared for a while last Spring. Then they came back but were only two pages long and prices were good for a month instead of a week. They’re back to full size and weekly now but the only things on sale are weird items/products that no one buys.

Bull puckey You used to be able to get those Steamable Vegetables for $1.29 regularly or 99¢ on sale.

1st they went from 16 Ounces to 14 Ounces then to 12 Ounces then to 10 Ounces.

Now even at 10 ounces, occasionally you might be lucky and get them on sale for $1.99 but most of the time they are $2.99
