Why is that?

What's crazy is that ground beef is practically a waste product. You can get it for under $4/lb in Houston. Hell, come by certain grocery stores at the end of the day and they're trashing buckets of it.
$6.12 for something that's filling up garbage cans and landfills to the tune of 429.2 million lbs in 2022 alone? Seems like Americans are getting price gouged.
536,000 cows, forced to sit in their own shit for 18 months just to be unceremoniously slaughtered and thrown right in the trash, like some fucked up torture treadmill

Killing all the brown people was how we were supposed to get cheap eggs. The brown people were making our eggs expensive so we had to spend $600M on an Everglades concentration camp
I mean, the eggs are cheap again so I guess it worked?

the average amount of red meat consumed a day on the earth per person is something like 2.2 ounces.
seems like the price isn't high enough to make Americans recognize how a 1/4 pounder is twice that average in one item.

i miss when the cost of eggs was our biggest concern
I could sell you some eggs for 100% markup so you can relive that memory.

Yeah that's dumb... Not everyone eats red meat everyday... Maybe try finding out how much someone eats during a meal on average... And how many people per day .. That's more informative...

I know, what a poor use of statistics. Most people play tennis for under 30 seconds/day so playing for 30 mins is an outrageous use of time.

the absolutely wild thing about this is that australia is/was also complaining about a cost of living crisis, and our food is $ for $ roughly the same… as in our numeric value for food is the same - despite our currency being worth about 2/3 as much
this doesn’t mean that australia has our cost of living crisis easy… it means that americas food prices are ultra fucked

Welcome to industrial animal agriculture. I stopped eating animal products 7 years ago. My only regret is not making this change earlier.
And before someone says "just buy from small local farms": I live in an urban area. Unless I burn gas driving all over fuck, the industrial animal ag products are what is in the stores. Easier for me to just go plant-based.

Beef prices should go up, along with all meat prices, to reflect their ecosystemic toll. The problem is basic staples are also expensive.

Do anyone still remember the drama with egg prices? Or is it just me?

Because media focus shifted. People will be mad with what the media tells them to be mad at.

"Just buy from small local farms," a phrase spoken exclusively by people who do not just buy from small local farms.
7 is a good year, on average most of the cells in your body have already been replaced. You're almost entirely made of plant material at this point lol

Because the pro-Trump media now tells people it's because of the long-lasting effects of the Biden admin. Here in Hungary, we're still being told the awful state of the healthcare system is due to the Gyurcsány-era, that was in 2010(!), although they started to mix it up with a little "the EU isn't sending us money because we made a law that labels gay people pedophiles".

wrote last edited by [email protected]yeah stop the corn and soybean subsidies and actually charge ranchers for letting their cattle graze on federal land and then the price will reflect what the real price of meat is.

because everyone knows and feels the slowly rising over-inflation, but there are far more pressing problems that need to be addressed
