Is it just in my area? In the span of two weeks I saw a 30 to 40% drop on many of the major staples including meats and certain types of vegetables....

Chicken and pork in particular have come way down and this morning I saw 88-cent a dozen eggs...

Give me more of this thank you!

Eggs have come down in our area as well. I'm not seeing the change in produce though. We saw RADISHES for $2/bunch with about 6-8 radishes per bunch and a couple of the radishes were nearly the size of a small roma tomato. Those will be hollow inside with no flavor. We passed. Bell peppers were nearly as bad and they were in terrible shape. Glad we can grow these simple veggies ourselves. Bread is also ridiculously high.
 
Lol
Ours are a mixed bag. Eggs and milk are down. Meat seems stable. Produce, bread and canned goods are spendy. Del Monte whole green beans @ $2.38 for a 14.5 oz can.
Well beef is still insane.....
Trump is trying to bring in SA beef but US cattle ranchers are fighting that.

But pork and chicken have dropped off by nearly 30 percent... actually a little more.

Green peppers high.....red peppers down by 60 percent, celery down, onions down, potatoes down.
 
I have noticed a slight decrease in some prices ...
Keeping my fingers crossed.
 
I have not seen prices drop like that, but they are certainly not going up.
 
Do i really need to explain global commodities markets to you? 😐
I understand your point but global commodities have nothing to do with fuel and carbon taxes which should be removed on domestically produced oil used in the US. This would give energy relief to all US consumers and especially the hardest hit consumers in the nation in blue, west coast states. Indeed, it might have a positive effect on inflation in the US in general.

Tamping down regulations is always good for the bottom line.

Not what you said. Thanks for playing!
