I hope the Chinese stop taking USA pork ( Smithfield is owned by the Chinese) Should help Bacon prices in the USA. The bulk Bacon I like at the local Stator Bros Market used to be $3.99 lb, less on Sale. Now $5.99 is the normal price with the rare sale down to $4.99. initially the price increases was blamed on the the virus which was killing piglets about five years back. The price never came back down. More supply should help that.

What Free Traitors™ don’t want you to know is the there is a domestic market for all the products we ship overseas. That means a boon for the consumer. Bacon is a good example.

Certainly you don't think that U.S. pork producers will continue to produce the bacon the Chinese won't buy?
