Quoting: Anonymous Coward 81489847 Exactly... Anyone paying attention knew this was coming... Beef prices should have dropped for awhile but end consumers didn't see the savings unless they bought local sourced beef the big processors kept right on charging the same prices even though they were paying less for the glut in the cattle market. |

And farmers cutting costs caused herds to be thinned out. Now there's a surplus of beef that is going to waste because due to inflation, people aren't buying as much. Its a cycle. Beef will skyrocket come summer as there will be higher demand and less stock. |

Chili used to be "Cheap" One pot meal, but today with the Beef prices and peppers and seasonings, I spent right at $80 to make Chili today. AJ looks like a fitness guru next to that jackass. |
