Re: Higher Food prices coming SOON !!!
A friend who is a meat buyer for a major retailer told me the other day hamburger is expected to take a large jump this summer cause last year when cattle prices were high most people sold their old pound cows, so there will be a shortage of cutter and canners. He said top choices of beef will have to be ground into burgers. $6-8 dollar a pound steak ground up wont make $1.99 lb hamburger.

Re: Higher Food prices coming SOON !!!
The cattle prices were not that high in fact they were pretty low compared to past years because so many people were selling because of the drought. However there were a lot of people like us that held on and will be selling full steam ahead like normal this year.
Buy American, the job you save just might be your own.
