Anonymous Coward User ID: 81899387 United States 01/18/2022 10:24 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Same regarding chicken at my local Aldi here in SW MO. Then ran to Wally world for my mom’s Cheetos Puffs- the chip aisle was empty except for a few bags of off brand things. And even those were low. Quoting: Sonflower17 I was able to get all my normal groceries at Aldi aside from the chicken I wanted. I got a different, more expensive kind though. Out store expanded the chip aisles to two to hide the missing other food. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 80714343 Japan 01/18/2022 10:27 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Just got back from the butcher. I get 5 pounds of free range chicken breast every week. $6 a pound. 3 pounds of tritip $10/pound, 2 pounds of prime filet, $50 a pound, 2 pounds bacon at $9 a pound, and 2 pounds of pork belly at $6 a pound. The chicken breast has been $6 a pound for the past 5 years. Before that it was $5.50 a pound. Thighs are $4 a pound. This is free range, never caged chicken... it's completely different than any chain grocery store chicken, hard to explain. But this butcher I go to has plenty of meat, always, and the line is often long. But they have plenty of tritip, filet, picanha, ribeye (bone in, tomohawk, or regular), chicken thighs, breast, wings, and whole bird roasters, sausages of all types, 4 kinds of bacon, and skin on or skin off pork belly. They have pork chops, both regular and smoked, and pork loin. In the freezer they have bear, deer, wild boar. They also have a small selection of tuna, swordfish, and salmon as well as oysters in the shells. Never has there been a shortage of anything there. But also, most people don't shop there. It's primarily regulars that go there every week and their suppliers aren't the same as with a Publix or chain grocery store. But I've always paid more for their quality, it's worth it. Quoting: The Årtist While their prices haven't changed too much, the grocery stores are a completely different story. Our overall food cost each month has gone from $1200 to $1700. We're spending $500 more a month on foodstuffs. And while that's not a problem for us at all, it has to be hard for many others yes, indeed. Think of all the people who have to live off of their social security checks and who weren't high earners while working. Also, disabled people on ssi. That's less than 1K a month! homeless people, too. The inflation MUST BE REVERSED TO PRICES FROM BEFORE INFLATION ever began!!! |

Started seeing packages of chicken feet, gizzards, etc. Hadn't seen stuff like that since the 70's. No chicken when I went to Kroger near Indianapolis. |

User ID: 80823226 United States 01/18/2022 10:41 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I want everyone to be aware of three things. 1. this is this administration's fault not some foreign national conspiracy. Just f'n morons running a shi/show 2. the number of goods missing from supermarkets picked up hardcore up north, down here we had a few things upwards to 60% full shelves. In other places 50%, or filled with fillers so you just don't notice. 3. I think its apparent that things might get worse before they get better. Especially due to #1 and Trudeau screwing up Canada. Goods will not ship fast enough to deal with a true crisis. IF I AM RIGHT follow these steps now. A. Have Pancake mix for 3 weeks. B. Have Rice for 3 weeks C. Put it in plastic bins to keep out bugs and moisture. D.* Protein is going to be pushed upon us from SOY-BASED PRODUCTS. DO NOT EAT THEM. E. Get your beef and poultry from local farmers, sourced butchers, and people you can trust. Don't expect it to be cheap. It will cost more for good reason. F. DO NOT EAT SOY-BASED MEAT OR PLANT-BASED AMAZING CRAP. * Bill Gates and many others like him bought up and converted beef pastures into soy farms, you know why I think I do. I think their planning to introduce proteins into the beef that we consume. Proteins they design, as well as DNA from god, knows what. We don't know where this is headed and I don't know for sure they're not doing this. I do however know that no one will be able to detect anything until it's too god damned late. So Don't consume SOY-based Proteins. Last Edited by ElephantInTheRoom on 01/18/2022 10:42 AM TheElephantInTheRoom |

Quoting: Mr Samuel Colt Beef selection is minimal and the price is off the charts also. And the butcher says no trucks today. I hope everybody has a food supply. The quickest way to take down a society is the vanishing food supply. I really feel for parents with young mouths to feed. Yeah.. A manufactured crisis. Absolutely disgusting everyone is sick dude Nothing about it is manufactured. When there is no one to work things dont get done. |

This poster Doesn't know that Florida literally is where all cattle are raised before their sold and fattened up in winter climates. A lot of people are just unaware. Alright whatever. Also Florida has a huge agro farming industry to the point many of us are concerned about what they do to our water systems. That said if any state could be self sufficient to feed its own. It would be Florida. We have two growing seasons not one. And we have tons of wild fish, game, and food we produce here. Anyone saying otherwise is ignorant of the natural resources of Florida.
