Im getting 2lbs of flobby ribeye USDA prime from my local winn dixie for just $14 Meat is getting cheaper. Vegetables and fruits are getting cheaper. Processed foods....box cereals or sausages or bacon are defibately getting more pricey [/quote] pork going up due to the massive losses in China. Catastrophic losses. we'll see cereals etc climb further as the corn price goes up. we are definitely in a trend of rising food prices for many reasons. Australia severe drought, Africa severe drought, corn crop losses and other farm devastation from flooding. even trade tariffs are playing into food prices. Many crops such as garlic are commonly chinese in origin also honey, and others. we are living in strange times and it will ONLY get stranger [/quote]
Original Message
I am making this thread simply because I have noticed a gradual to drastic price in various food prices across the board at my local Brookshire's store the last time I shopped there two or so days ago. I noticed that chicken food product prices rose drastically while cheese prices rose just a little.
I figure the chicken prices are raising so fast and so high is because of all the vast flooding that hit so much of the Great Plains States earlier this year. That vast flooding destroyed so many farmers' lives, livestock, and properties. Most of their lives are unrecoverable. Tens of millions of cattle, chicken, and other livestock were drowned in the flooding last I knew.
Even beef prices have jumped up a dollar or more per pound recently too. Cheese prices shouldn't jump up too much in prices for a while longer due to I think many cheese manufacturers have up to a vast supply in waiting. This is usually due to aging various cheeses for specific reasons.
