Restaurant Depot Meat Prices

Yeah seems beef prices are inflated.  Don’t know the cause except its all BS.  Hopefully is gets normalized quickly!

Supposedly COVID impact on processing plants being shut down and running at less than half capacity when open.  Add to that hysteria of everyone stocking their freezers.  And, apparently they haven’t figured out how to get commercial packaging lines converted to consumer packaging lines to use the extra capacity from lower demand from restaurants.  It seems like someone is pulling one over on us consumers along the way but I don’t have any facts to support that.  However, the government did just indite several execs from chicken processing plants for price fixing so maybe the beef execs are next on the list.
