I'm about to go full vegetarian with these food prices. Beef has been too expensive for years, the only beef I've bought for years from grocery stores is bulk pack ground on sale but now on sale is $7/lb. Chicken breast has been my main staple, on sale usually for $2-3/lb, now it's on sale at $5/lb for the cheap bulk packs. Around me it's a wash to cook at home or eat out (at small restaurants/food trucks). I expect restaurants to jack up the prices more soon because they've been fairly sticky.
