Sounds like a good thing to sell in a Menards Parking Lot.That Ottumwa theft was in Sept, 2022. That would be pretty old and freezer burn by now.
I noticed last night my bottle of vanilla expired in 2022. Still seems fine. Maybe even aged better. Probably different than meat.That Ottumwa theft was in Sept, 2022. That would be pretty old and freezer burn by now.
Yup, local radio will take any advertising dollars and they also post it all over social media. It 100% is a pyramid scheme/scam. Doesn't help either when you drive by and there is a line for it to bring walk up interest too. I really wonder if any of the local media here that were advertising it (I also heard one of the personalities on 92.5 KJJY talking about it last weekend) actually ever purchased these to realize they are promoting meat that is probably around dog food grade in quality.KIOA was advertising all about this - they are spending money trying to get the word out, and I guess I do feel.... something... for those who buy these.
I would much rather trust a huge company with a lot on the line like BK, than a random semi in a parking lot.So what? I paid $16 for a shi@@y burger, fry and soda at Burger King. Who knows what was in it.
Are these ribeyes even beef?

Had to check to see if BK was even still a thing - and you can get a large double whopper meal for $14, wtf you spending $16 on??
The main reason beef prices are as high as they are right now is the US beef population has declined over the years and is at a 75 year low. This video kind of explains the current situation.

The problem is you can't just build up a herd inventory overnight, it takes several years. And the most economical way to do that right now is retain more replacement heifers in existing herds, but with beef prices where they are at right now some producers are probably making more profit off sending some of those females to the feedlot for slaughter than they are having to pay input/operational costs on them for another 2 years before they see income from their 1st calf. It's rather expensive right now to go out and start a herd too if you are going to go buy heifers or bred cows and a bull. The saying is you should pay about what you could sell 3 steers for to buy a good bull. Well with beef prices these days that could be a $10,000 bull right now. Bred heifers are probably going for $3500-5000 a head right now, bred cows depending on age probably $2500-4500. That is a lot of initial investment for someone if they were starting an operation from scratch, especially considering all the equipment and inputs you'd need to invest in as well. Even for existing cattlemen you may not turn a profit on a bred female you purchased until you sell their 2nd calf.
Ground beef price has increased nearly every year in the last 15 years, what am I missing that would stop that?Also, maybe look at the reasons why beef is so expensive right now and think about that next time...
Clearly raise your own cattle and slaughter them yourself!Ground beef price has increased nearly every year in the 15 years, what am I missing that would stop that?
