I am down to my last pound of bacon and decided I need to make some more.  The prices were rather high if you ask me.  A place in Elkhorn, WI want $4.29 lb. and the locker in Clinton, WI wants $3.89.  Does this seem high or is it just me being cheap.  After all, bacon is half fat!

I just got home from loading up on meat at Sam's Club and pork prices have gone up quite a bit in a month.

By the case..... loins were $2.05 lb and butts are $1.48. I noticed beef prices went up as well. Tis the season I guess.
