The price of BEEF has risen 59.2%
Washington Times ^ | September 10, 2021 | By Dave Boyer and Kery Murakami

Wholesale prices soared 8.3% in August from a year ago, the biggest annual gain since the Labor Department began tracking the inflation data in 2010 and potentially another sign of trouble for President Biden’s big-spending agenda.

The Labor Department reported Friday that its producer price index — which measures inflationary pressures before they reach consumers — rose 0.7% last month from July after increasing 1% in both June and July.

Wholesale food prices rose 2.9% in August and have climbed 12.7% in the past year. The price of beef has risen 59.2%.

We need this coup government junta removed from office as quickly as possible. They are wrecking the nation and this cannot wait 3 more years for a sham election.

The starting place is MASS civil disobedience on the vaccine orders.

The vaccine mandate is making a general strike much more palatable.

Admit it, everyone, we really prefer that yummy white tofu instead of that climate unfriendly beef.
Everybody with me? I feel like John Belushi in Animal House looking for the big crowd behind him.

Tell me !

I picked a dual pack of nice looking NY strips today and dropped them as soon as I saw the price $ 43.00.

I do love a nice steak, but it's chicken for now unless that gets crazy too.

Bacon prices have doubled, at least here in MO. It’s $10/lb now.

Depends on the cut.

The cheaper cuts, not so much, but the good ones, NY Strip, Delmonico’s, T-Bones, etc, have more than doubled.

It’s just greed because the same cows that produce chuck and round produce the good cuts as well.

If it had to do with the beef/cattle, everything would be short or not.

In my market, it’s pretty much the same. I buy grassfed beef from local ranchers, available in a few stores in town. Maybe it will go up. Will still buy it—don’t eat it more than once or twice a week anyway.
