Was thinking about this thread and meat prices a couple of days ago.
Beef prices seem much higher (50%ish) but pork still seems pretty normal to me and chicken might be a little higher but, again, mostly within norms. Shrimp is lower than normal by a decent bit (like frequently on sale and 20%+ lower than normal) - I don't understand that at all. Crab legs have been insanely high for months, like twice as much as normal (which is a shame as I love them and I haven't had any of late).
But I feel like you can go "inflation" to say it's higher across the board, but you could also tell me there are individual actions accounting for it like did some beef processing plants close but pork and chicken didn't, meanwhile shrimp are having a bumper crop but crab have been overfished of late?
