Great. Richer people will make eatin' poor trendy and the price of the makings will go up...

I remember when hamburger was .19 a lb., and the WaPo ran an article in the food section about eating like poor folks...Burger jumped to .89/lb by the end of the year. (wow, but that would seem cheap, now.)

I've read somewhere that chicken used to cost about the same as beef. Is that right or was this source mistaken?
