Is America Dying - Part 2

[2lumpy]

In Part 1 eelgrass asked about what’s going on in Department/Grocery stores.

Part 2 is a question about the consumer…….

I was looking at the price of steaks at one of our grocery stores, not Walmart. I was looking at the ribeyes. They were priced at $15.99 per pound. Too much for my budget today. I shifted over a step and pick up another package and looked at the price, $5.99. I took a closer look at the steak, and thought mmmmm, that looks like a ribeye (albeit, a very lean one) but WTH does that label say? I’m trying to get chuck something or other out of it…….. but can’t make sense of anything it abbreviated name is. I’m thinking, “what is this thing, it sure looks like ribeye to me.” I figure, WTH, I buy it and look it up on the computer when I get home, if it’s something nasty I’ll make stew out of it.

As I go to leave I look down and there are a dozen more of them in the display cooler.

I get home, take a picture of the label and toss it in the fridge. This afternoon I set down, type the label name into google and I notice it’s says “Chick” not “Chuck” so I type it in “CHICK BRST BNLS SKNLS SP and up comes “Raw Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast Portions split (pieces/trim) ”

Its obviously miss labeled as a chicken breast. So here’s the question:

1. Do I return it and tell the store it’s miss labeled, and get a refund?
2. Eat it and keep my mouth shut?
3. Go back and buy all of the others? $4.43 ribeyes would make a he!! of a 4th of July party, while America Is Dying.

I am in Richfield I will pick them up and you get the grill a-going. Do you need me to pick-up anything else? ?

 

[2lumpy]

I do…… if they have prime rib roasts marked “CHICK BK WITH RIBS” for $.99 per pound, I’ll take a dozen.

Hey Lumpy?

Are You Saying Our Fading Vision Might Be An Advantage Sometimes?

Remember Lumpy:

Everybody See's All These Big Bucks,But Me & You Don't See Them Anymore!

 

[elkassassin]

This is From The Other Beef Thread!

You Probably Already Seen It Lumpy?

This Is The Treatment I Get:

About The Only Beef I Buy Out of The Stores is the:

Home - Willamette Valley Meat Company​

Corporate Website for Willamette Valley Meat in Portland Oregon
www.wvmeat.com

They Have Beef Filets,Some Wrapped With Bacon,Some Not!

They Also Have Chicken that Are Bacon Wrapped!

On The Beef Filets They've Averaged 10.00-11.00 for A Pack of 2!

A Week ago I Bought A Pack & They Were 21.59,I Didn't See The Price Had Doubled,JUDAS!

Talked To A Guy a few Days Ago & He Claims Beef is Gonna Triple In Price!

 

[SS!]

what’s wrong with America? Well I’d say it’s having to google those abbreviations. ?

 

[eelgrass]

I take it all back. If a person keeps his eyes and ears open, a person can find some good in America. 2Lumpy proved that. America is not dying, America is alive and well. ?

 

[SS!]

Who would have thought a mislabeled package would lead to the death of the U.S.A.?

<2lumpy googles U.S.A.>

 

[2lumpy]

Dang…….. just got back from checking for more. I couldn’t find any. I rang the bell and told the woman that came out of the back I wanted a package of “CHICK BRST BNLS SKNLS SP”…….. she said, “sorry we’re out.”

SOB……. cost me my afternoon nap, and I was out looking for elk at 4:45 this morning.

And ya BC my vision sucks too. Made my annual 4th of July weekend trip this morning. There was no one on the Monroe this morning so we had the place to ourselves until 9:30 a.m. Counted a some total of 5 bulls and about 20 cows and calves. One small 4 point buck and two yearling bucks…… about 25 does, not fawns………. they are still hiding for another week or two.

Twenty years ago we would count 80 - 90 bulls over the same roads this week. So that proves it BC, it’s our eyes have gone TU, it’s not the herds.

One thing you and I have not lost yet, is our ability to do is turn every post into a complaint about how the bureaucrats have screwed everything up…….. now they’ve even screwed up WM, Kohl’s and every restaurant in the country.

Here is “Poster Boy” advertising the elk on the Monroe this year, ain’t he something.

<2lumpy googles U.S.A.>

Well……. I have had one tomatoe out of my garden already……… so there is that SS!

 

[notdonhunting]

Sorry Lumpy I got lost finding my way from Richfield and Glenwood, never trust a guy from Sanpete!?

 

[eelgrass]

Well……. I have had one tomatoe out of my garden already……… so there is that SS!

Now I'm jealous! I noticed a cluster of blossoms on my tomato plant. The odds of one getting ripe has dropped to 35% chance now.

I cheat eel, I make sure they have green tomatoes on them when I bring them home from the nursery……….. but don’t tell SS!

 

[Shadow]

Thanks for the tip Lumpy, I do love me some Ribeye!

 

[2lumpy]

What'd Ms Lumpy Get To Eat?

 

[eelgrass]

1. Do I return it and tell the store it’s miss labeled, and get a refund?

It's pretty obvious that option didn't happen. ? ?

 

[elkassassin]

Hey Lumpy?

Just The Other Side Of That Bull Looks Like A Major Chumming Area?

She likes gristle…….

 

[2lumpy]

It's pretty obvious that option didn't happen. ? ?

It became a dilemma……. in the end, I had to eat it to see if was chicken.

As you said, the Country’s on life support…….. selling beef for chicken…..

 

[schoolhousegrizz]

Seriously, where is the store at?

 

[2lumpy]

I wouldn’t make a special trip schoolhouse…….

 

[elkassassin]

Don't Worry!

Lumpy Will Be Checking The Poultry Section More Often!

 

[2lumpy]

They say “sleep on it”

It works…….

In response, chickens have taken over the meat counter.

 

[easy_money]

What would Jesus do?

 

[2lumpy]

What would Jesus do?

Serve fish……. like eel does.

 

[eelgrass]

Serve fish……. like eel does.

I'll trade some halibut for some of your "chicken." ?

I had a little luck yesterday.

 

[Shadow]

Eel, that’s just plain cruel!

 

[elkassassin]

Them Look like Chickens To Me Eel!

Good Eaters!

 

[notdonhunting]

Them Look like Chickens To Me Eel!

Good Eaters!

It is "all" in how it is labeled.
Ant that right Lumpy?

 

[eelgrass]

Them Look like Chickens To Me Eel!

Good Eaters!

Whenever the fish is almost as long as your boat is wide....they seem a lot bigger.

 

[2lumpy]

Yep….. or not.

Lumpy go easy on the flame, you might end up with charcoal next time…?

 

[easy_money]

eel, that's nice of you to take your Grampa fishing

I’m a modern diner T.

“According to food connoisseurs, the process of burning food creates the Maillard reaction. This occurs when the caramelising of food results in amino acids and sugars being rearranged, and this produces complex flavours that are uniquely appealing to modern diners.”

Hey Tikka!

Lumpy Wanted To Make Sure It Didn't Look Like a RARE Ribeye!

Hey Tikka!

I think black and red look good together.

Careful there easymoney, eel’s calling cards states: “Have Kerosine-Will Travel”

 

[eelgrass]

I thought so too. You don't see many 74 year old great grandpas kayaking on the bay these days.

Hey Tikka!

Or he wanted to cook it like chicken breast, like the package stated...

I can get Ribeyes for 5.99 a lb at Albertsons today but I already have 50 + in my freezers.

Better keep that quiet or you might need armed guards to protect your freezer. ??

PM shoolhousegrizz and let him know DM. Notdonhunting doesn’t need any, he snatched all of my stash.

 

[2lumpy]

Hey, BC those Williamette Valley Flat Iron Steaks are 5 bucks cheaper per pound than the ribeye and they are dang near as marbled and tender. Great flavor too.
