Beef, Pork And Shrimp Prices Soar To Record Highs
We previously noted that both beef and pork (courtesy of the affectionately named Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea virus) prices have been reaching new all time highs on an almost daily basis. It is time to update the chart.



... pork



... and shrimp.



Prices for shrimp have jumped to a 14-year high in recent months, spurred by a disease that’s ravaging the crustacean’s population. At Noodles & Co., a chain with locations across the country, it costs 29 percent more to add the shellfish to pastas this year, and shrimp-heavy dishes at places like the Cheesecake Factory Inc. are going up as well.

Restaurant chains, already struggling with shaky U.S. consumer confidence, are taking a profit hit as prices climb. Even worse, the surge is happening during the season of Lent, when eateries rely on seafood to lure Christian diners who abstain from chicken, beef and pork on certain days.

“It’s coming at a tough time for the industry,” said Andrew Barish, a San Francisco-based analyst at Jefferies LLC. “With the Lenten season, what you’ll see out there is a lot of promotions with seafood, and usually shrimp is a big part of that.”

Somewhere along the lines in human evolution the "fatted calf" became a daily habit.
Why don't you do us all a favor and eat shit? I hear it is still pretty cheap.

What's wrong with raw oysters and scallops? Raw oysters are awesome and some jumbo scallops on the grill are to die for. They go really well with a big, juicy steak.

I just don't like oysters raw (or any animal raw really) and I hate the texture of scallops.

Sushi tastes like a 14 year old's vagina and wheat beer. But only if you've been drinking wheat beer.

Wait a minute...

YOU are the pedophile. How do you know what a 14-year old's vagina tastes like?

I can get down with you on the texture thing. I don't like scallops or snails for that reason but sushi tastes like rice and seaweed. The sea urchin or eel sitting on top is just for color.
