If you’ve been to the grocery store recently, you’ve noticed the price of many products have gone up significantly, particularly pork. Frankly, I am a little disturbed that ‘other people’ have discovered the wonders of pork products and actually like it! It is a staple in much of what I cook from soup bases to using Bacon fat along with butter in many fun recipes.
Now I am not trying to cause a panic, but I noticed something as simple as Bacon has become quite pricey! It’s not like I am going to give it up anytime soon… I am only going to fill my freezers! However, there is hope; the inventory will continue it’s downward trend reflecting the jump in deman, but supply will catch up in the years ahead.
I am also impressed with the offerings of pork in many restaurants, some including an all pork section!
Hmmm… I am definitely hungry!
