It just dropped to $2.97lb at Costco. I can afford a lot at that price.

But if bacon prices are too low, thousands of pig farmers will go out of business. You should embrace high bacon prices. Now go skim through this thread. https://www.ar15.com/forums/t_1_5/1678377_How_low_can_oil_go_.html |

I've never even looked at the price of bacon. It doesn't matter. It's like air.
|
|
I try to keep it in reserve, but I just can't stop eating it. It's 5.99 a lb here now.
ETA: True story, I had a blt yesterday with 8 pieces of bacon on it. |
|
I've looked at three different stores recently, and bacon ran from $8-$10 a pound. I quit buying it. It's too expensive, and the calorie count is wicked high.
|
|
I can still get Conecuh brand bacon for 8.99. It's high, but worth it...

$2.99 a pound for Bacon is too easy to find. I am blessed to live in the chosen land for bacon consumers... added benefit? It smells like pigs too!

it's a conspiracy. no reason for bacon to be so expensive:
- 1 billion muslims don't eat it - 20 million jews don't eat it - 1 billion Catholics aren't supposed to eat it on Fridays so what's up. there should be plenty to go round. Illuminati? Aliens? Best stock up. buy it cheap, stack it deep. when I used to live in Canada, they had canned bacon. that's the stuff. |

That plus the drought out west driving up feed costs is why bacon is too damn expensive. |

Wright Brand bacon is $11.89 for a 24oz. package here. Between keeping me in bacon and the wife in coffee my ass is going broke.

You should thank Jesus that those people can't eat it, we would be fighting Bacon War II, if not for those that sacrifice, so the rest of us can delight in hicory goodness. |

Local grocery had 10 lbs for 22.90. I bought it without blinking and broke it down and vac sealed it by the pound and froze.
It's up to 24.90 for the same box, but they've been out of stock for a couple weeks. |

I buy the thicker cut stuff that costs around $3+ lb What I noticed costing more at Costco was their cooked frozen shrimp. I recall it always being around $12-13 a big package. Now the same package is $20 |

I keep about 5 lbs in the freezer at any one time.
I rotate it out, so when I see it on sale, I grab a few pounds and rotate the freezer stock. |

I thought I saw a report that said 55 million piglets were born this year in the U.S....prices should be dropping soon......

"catholic-pages.com". "canon law still requires that catholics not eat meat on Friday". it goes on about exemptions if some holy day is a Friday. apparently this canon law is honored mostly in the breach. kind of like the Pirate's Code- "they're more like guidelines, anyway" |

We've gotten our own hogs butchered for years until last year. Now I'm all out of locally processed bacon. Thick Sliced Tyson Bacon was over 6.00 per pound last week at WM,
just at the same time I've become hooked on bacon bloody marys using bacon infused vodka. |

Yoder's canned bacon: 213.57/case.
"Each case comes with the equivalent of 3 pounds of raw bacon. So this case would be about 36 pounds of bacon." |
|
I buy enough in bulk to make it worth having a BJs acct. a 3lb pack of Smithfield bacon is $11.99 so basically $4/lb and I almost always have 2 unopened packs in the freezer at any given time.
|
|
Have 20 lbs in reserve, can buy it at the meat market I go to for right around $3 a lb, .50..60 cents then that less when it's on sale.
