Has the price of food gone up in your area lately??
    #21697480 - 05/19/15 08:02 AM (8 years, 8 months ago)

Summer is here, so that means grilling season. Steaks on the BBQ!!!

I get to the grocery store and realize that I can't get a decent piece of meat for under 7$.... I'm like WTF... 7$ MINIMUM for something decent... A big T-bone, 12$....

I don't nw wtt ealyp haened in the farming industry to justify these insane prices but I want to know if it's just me or have you guys noticed a sharp increase in the price of your groceries.

mmwell?

Food prices might really skyrocket since california is running out of water. A lot of food is grown there then shipped around, plus 38 million people live there. I'm thinking if I want tomatoes I better start growing them my self, there gonna be like 10 dollars per pound.

I've noticed that with rotisserie chickens compared to prepackaged raw chicken, cuts..  I think the processing and grouping of specific cuts has to do with the paired cuts costing more than the 'one shot' whole bird

I remember as a kid which wasn't too long ago, we could afford to eat steak least once a week. Now I haven't ate any for years pretty much. Too expensive.

Also CAD is worthless right now because of oil, so that may have to do with it.

Theyre cheaper because they use the old chicken thats about to go bad neway. Its one of the many factors that makes preprepared super market rotissere chickens fucking disgusting.  cuts of anything are more expensive because you have to cut them which means time money and waste.

That California comment. I read about that in the papers. Apparently avocadoes require a ridiculous amount of water to grow and because of the drought they are gonna get ridiculously expensive.

Yes. Maybe 2 or 3 years ago a premium sirloin steak was roughly that price. And I'm talking a slab of meat. Then again, we got cattle country Alberta to supply the demand at will, so it keeps the prices down (or used too anyway)

It's at 80 cent per USD. Which is what we would call "back to normal exchange rates". The way it should have beeen for the last 10 years.

I hear you, some of those roasts get choice with the bone in.  My grandma taught me that, she comes from a different time, the depression.  But she's right.  There's things you can use bones for, I come from an old school mentality that being the youngin, I still stand back and, man, they really had it all figured out.  Their life, was really in gamble.  Your poorest countries often have the best tricks for that "shiny light, secret recipe" ..  you know what Im saying..

I worked breifly in a grocery store back when I was 18. I saw how they prepared that rotisserie chicken. I am never eating that shit ever... It kinda made me feel weird too because the health inspectors come frequently and apprently that way of making the rotesserie chicken fall within the requirements of the law... So if that's legal, I don't want to know what's going on in any kitchen of any restaurant ever...

Really I'm talking about the super market rotisserie chickens. You no the ones they marinate in slop over night and then the janitor comes in to open up at 6am and throws them on so at 6pm you can have a roast ball of slimy chicken meat! Yeh every one of them I've ever ate was disgusting.
