    Researchers say fixing supply chain issues takes a matter of months, not weeks, so prices may begin to drop in early 2022.

    Can't wait to see this posted again in a few months but instead it says "mid 2022", "late 2022" "early 2023"...

      Beef prices are going to crash eventually.

    hadn't noticed. I actually had beef this month for the first time in a long time because round, shortribs, and ground were at a 50% discount. made some California style burritos with the round using the last bag of french fries in the totally empty frozen section ($3.50 for 5lbs), and used the ground beef to make Ragù
