Well it is partly our fault
If it gets any more expensive I'll be eating the other red meat - pork.

Ha anyone noticed that eggs are going up pretty fast also. They're still cheap but they have gone up 50% around here.

Yeah, I was going to point that out about eggs, too. They're higher at Costco, Trader Joe's, and Food-4-less, probably other places, too.

I don't think it's us, though. I think we're in the middle of a new wave of inflation. Watch gold prices. They're on the verge of breaking through 400.

"It's hard to say exactly how much of the recent uptick in demand for beef is because of fad diets, but they are clearly a factor," said James Hilker, professor of agricultural economics at Michigan State University.
