Here's Krogers ad for today. Chicken drumsticks and thighs are still $0.99. a pound. Chips are up 50 cents.
These meat prices are crazy. They must have hefty subsidies in the US.
Unfortunately we do. Tens of billions of dollars. Same with corn, which is why virtually every single food product has high fructose corn syrup as one of the top ingredients
Sometimes they get paid to grow things and sometimes they get paid to not grow things.
The ad for my store is bit more expensive. I can't remember the last time we had apple or pork shoulder prices under a dollar per pound. I'm in northern Indiana for what it's worth.
Oooh. 2 lb of strawberries for $3.49. Can you grab me one of those?
I don't normally love pork, but we buy that bone-in pork rib roast at Costco. It's preseasoned, it's really good, and it's three something a pound, So it's usually less than $20 for a really big roast that will feed four people twice.
