This was probably a cut of meat that was on the verge of expiration. A Perdue roasting chicken is $9 now vs $5. Well if you are silly enough to buy name brands at full price you have nothing to complain about. I bought chicken legs (no they were NOT expired or even close for .49 a pound a few weeks back). I bought chicken breasts a few weeks back at .89 lb. Now I doubt they can even raise chickens for that price. Center cut chops I bought recently at $2.19. Not on sale they are $4.59 or higher. It seems to me that 1) food is a bargain 2) you have no clues how to shop in 1971-1973 I worked for grocery stores. I know prices. Chicken on sale back the (whole chickens) were about .27 lb. Not on sale perhaps .35-40. I have recently seen chickens whole chickens for .69 or so. Not on sale you can easily pay $1.69. I can name countless other items. In general I would say meat has gone up 150% over 35 years. Someone care to compound that for me? Can you pay more if you buy stupid? Of course People bitching about food prices are clueless IMO.
