Beef Prices: Ouch!

Sometimes, rising prices are sufficient to change our behavior.  Boomers can recall the 1970s, when a pack of cigarettes cost $0.75, or, if you lived close to the tobacco-growing regions in and near North Carolina, it could be a quarter. Now there are plenty of people who’ve quit smoking simply because it’s expensive.

There are lots of reasons to eliminate beef from your diet, and spiking prices may be just one more motivating factor.
