  • I notice there is no shortage of GMO grains, like wheat, corn, and soy. despite floods and droughts which shoul affect the market price.

  • "Better stick to salads."

    Must be why we're flooding ourselves with an underclass to pick our lettuce. See? Obama was thinking ahead again! He's smarter than all of us!

  • But inflation is still considered tame by the federal reserve and idiots like Krugman.

  • Strangely I just found steaks on sale at HEB. Bought a couple of NY Strips for under $6 a pound. Grilled one up for dinner and it tasted pretty dang good.

    • Where? Tuesdays are usually good shopping days. They put on a lot ofin store specials then.

      • Seems the NY strip has been priced like that for at least 18 months now. Even the HEB prime NY strips are less than ten bucks a lb and las t I looked they were at 8.99. Even so, I' m a prime ribeye fan myself! 17.99 a lb and worth every penny IMO!!!!!!!! Not too out of line budget wise unless do it every weekend.

        Still it all goes up in price if you're making gasoline with feed, which raises the cost of fuel across the board, which raises the cost of bringing food to market, which raises the price of the food. Another vicious cycle they've got us caught in to stop global warming.

  • Mooch forcing us to eat healthy. If all we can afford is salad, while they eat caviar, then so much the better.

  • And, if you're collecting SS don't bother looking for an increase in the cost of living.

    • no increase in Social Security, because there is no inflation. Its like they are trying aJedi mind trick. you know, wave a hand before them and repeat "There is no inflation." While ev ER rything is more expensive for increasingly smaller portions.

  • Give enough people EBT and pretty soon you've created enough artificial demand to skew food prices. Pretty basic economics. Oh, and if you're getting your food paid for by someone be else, you don't care what it costs.

    • Or how much you waste. Most of them that I see don't buy staples, either. It's all the stuff that's having the prices driven up. Then again, I think welfare moms are the reason a small box of cereal costs over three dollars. They don't got no time for cookin'.
