Thanksgiving 2021 is shaping up to be the most expensive in history.
Prices of processed turkeys are up 40.7 percent compared with a year ago, data from the Department of Labor’s Producer Price Index showed Tuesday. That’s even after falling a seasonally adjusted one percent in October.
It may be hard to even find turkeys in some parts of the country this year. The Wall Street Journal reported that turkeys were 60 percent out of stock. Cranberries, yams, and sweet potatoes are also low in stock.
Grain prices are 40.8 percent higher than a year ago, driving up the
prices of our largely grain-fed turkey crop. Beef and veal prices are up
41.5 percent compared with a year ago. Overall, food prices are running
10.5 percent higher than a year ago.

That is the pricer of unchallenged election manipulation. They are worried about the future so they are sucking up to the radical climate change fantasy folks while grabbing all the grift they can. If have a useful idea, go for it. The Progressivesa/Socialists/Bolsheviks destroyed the Soviet Union, and are trashing Europe and now they are here. What is new?
ReplyDeleteSticker shock when I shopped a turkey last week. Downgraded to a Butterball turkey breast. Still paid more than a whole turkey last year.
