Time to brag. Local grocery had no-preservative organic bacon, normally $8.19, marked down to $1. Bought two packs for two bucks which would have been sixteen.

Good news for NZ exporters I guess, but will probably raise the price of meets at the supermarkets here too..

Get ready to go long pork in the spring. Bacon will be as valuable as Gold for a short time next year. Prices should fall over the coming months as Canada and American ranchers are in the midst of wiping out most of their herds. The temporary jump in supply should bring the price down for the rest of the year. But come February-March there will be a massive shortage of pigs.

Now if only the free market worked as quick on BBW/Feminists like it does with food.

My parents have an organic farm, I think I'm currently sitting on 25 lbs. of bacon in my freezer. Time to flip that shit and get rich.
