$ 6.30 is what you are looking at paying when trying to purchase a pint of beer in Europe due to a Russian wheat crisis and harvest troubles that have been happening. But here’s something to really take the sizzle out of your day: bacon prices are stampeding onward and upward. Last year bacon prices were cheaper. CNBC says the price went up 20 percent. Any person who likes their bacon each and every morning is surely upset by this although the U.S. economy is doing better with this rise in price.
Getting bacon can cost $ 4 per pound
The Department of Agriculture has given their opinion on the situation. It feels the rise in price is because there is a supply-and-demand curve that has to be met. The recession has caused more to get rid of their pigs. Tomatoes are at the moment ripe, so BLT sandwiches are a hot item – and thus there’s a need for more bacon. Obama’s Next Crisis,” is what the National Review calls it right about now.
Economy benefits from this sad story
The National Review was all upset about the bacon issues. It forgot to mention all the good things to come from it. This means that more people want to buy luxury items such as bacon. Luxury items are only bought when individuals feel comfortable. This means the economy is likely to get much better. It was said by Rich Nelson of Allendale, Inc. that “They may not be getting steak rather than hamburger, but they will put bacon on their hamburger or other things.” This is good news.
Bacon tends to be in more items at restaurants because of this.
More fattened through demand
Demand has caused many of the pig farmers to pick up some more for the herd. Hog tends to be the most picked up thing. Nelson feels like prices will go down. This should happen by mid-2011. Fat on generic brands of bacon abound meaning there is less meat left after losing the fat. More individuals are buying the generic brands. According to Jason Mosely of Mr. Baconpants, “Your BLT deserves the best bacon you are able to afford!” despite the fact that most know the economy must be recovering as a result of greatness of bacon, including CNBC’s Heather Lauer. Hopefully this means that most plan to celebrate International Bacon Day patriotically. It is September fourth. This really is the case.
