I eat sardines for lunch a lot and noticed that they have gone up from 99 cents a can to $1.29 a can here.

I wondered why, since they are usually scorned by people as the article says as , ‘poor peoples food’.

I looked up ‘sardine news’ and this article came up.

This is probably why they are now more expensive, demand is way up, so price goes up.

Supply and demand.................

When I was a starving college student 50 years ago, fresh squid was available for 39 cents a pound in grocery stores. A few years later, it was called “calamari” and cost $1.99/lb. Damned foodies.

I didn’t mean you posting this article I was just making note that we all live in a feminized America.

People would be shocked to see how adult information used to be and how the frivolous stuff was available for women but it wasn’t front and center everywhere we looked and the focus of our lives, it was on the fringes, just as serious man/adult news is today.
