I'm not poor so I just drive to a more expensive store. it's not my problem if walmart is out of meat

i go get my own meat

Usually beans or lentils. Eggs have gone into pretty heavy use as a replacement as well

>>17301371
I buy meat in bulk at Costco so I'm set for another few months.

>>17301371
>What have you been substituting meat with when stores are out ?

In 2 years of this pandemic, I have yet to see a grocery store that was out of meat. If you don't shop at Wal~Mart, you might realize that Fox News is lying about shortages.

Maybe try buying your groceries from an actual grocer, idiot. kys.

The supply chains are fucked. Livestock can't be maintained so its being killed of and destroyed. There aren't enough workers to drive trucks so it doesn't get shipped. It goes bad and is destroyed. Whatever is currently on shelves is the last meat grocery stores will get. After its gone, no more meat.

I’m three weeks away from purchasing an entire cow from a farmer. I won’t need to worry about shelf availability of meat. I wouldn’t assume you’ll be able to buy meat at the supermarket for very long.

kangaroo steaks are never out where im at so roo is the obvious choice

>>17301371
Meat from the butcher next to the supermarket

>>17301371
I grab the ¡Rumba! Tripe

>>17301461
Imagine being so schizophrenic you think people noticing trends must be some troon samefagging gayops or whatever goes on in your melted brain

Just buy a different type of meat. God damn.

Also eggs. Amazing brotein source. The best.

Liberals.

>>17301371
Those tubes of ground beef.

None of my stores don't have meat

>>17301371
No meat shortage in leafland

>>17301446
>Livestock can't be maintained
What do you mean by this

>>17301581
What do you think it means? It costs money to keep livestock. If no one is buying it then they aren't going to keep them alive just for the fucking fun of it. Retard.

>>17301446
>There aren't enough workers to drive trucks
damn, auto driving really coulda saved us here

ive thought about being a truck driver for like a year to make some cash and quit, but its literally throwing atleast 1 year of your life away to sit and be alone and stressed about being on time, its also very unhealthy so could also subtract years later down the road

>>17301612
Except that you can sell them later. Your doomsaying just seems a little extreme

beans with lard
meat from the foodbank
eggs
meat from my moms freezer.

>>17301634
>seems a little extreme
Except the fact it's already being done.

>>17301371
Stores are out?

>>17301714
Look at the picture.

psyop thread

>>17301717
Get off the internet and stop believing MSM. No one I know has dealt with a shortage. I certainly haven’t

>>17301692
>nearly 2 year old article
>2 million unspecified livestock culled
Oh its nothing
>94.4 million head of cattle in USA
>121.3 million hogs slaughtered a year
>https://www.aphis.usda.gov/animal_health/nahms/downloads/Demographics2017.pdf
kys faggot. Its a minor problem

>>17301722
Exactly

>>17301728
>nearly 2 year old article
Yeah because the supply chain problems have definitely gotten better not worse since then... (looks at the OP's picture) oh shit...

>>17301743
Nice anecdata, come back with an argument next time nigger

>>17301371
I have a chest freezer full of venison and routinely hunt squirrels and rabbits. If I want poultry I just run a turkey over with my truck. Also the mexican grocery store I go to is never out of beef.

>>17301755
Definitely no supply chain issues, nope. This won't cause any problems at all.

>>17301371
hunting and fishing

>>17301371
America 3rd world country with famine and slums

>>17301761
Those articles show a market response to a shortage. There is a minor problem that could develop further, but as you have shown this has resulted in increased recruitment and training. Various industries have labor shortages, its not world ending.

>>17301781

Yeah you're right this is completely normal. The shelves are just half empty because uh... well... don't worry about it.

>>17301761
GO FUCK YOURSELF SHILL. Two of my brother in laws said they’ve been laid off and their coworkers, all truckers. They cut all the high paid vets and now can’t find immigrants and scabs for $17/hr

deenz

>>17301808
Markets are dynamic, a slight decrease in meat production is again not world ending. Extreme factors(hysterical covid19 response) has resulted in odd market forces coming into play. Expect things to smooth over in the long term
>half empty
I don't believe you. Care to provide proofs?

>>17301612
>no one is buying
If no one was buying we wouldn't have a meat shortage

>>17301843
The shortage is because it can't get packed and shipped, einstein.

>>17301371
offals as long as people realize they actually taste good. Then legumes+pasta, eggs and cheeses.

>>17301761
I hate this term but the problem is "corporate greed".
And idk about everywhere else but the state I'm in now requires you to take a long expensive tech college course to get a cdl.

>>17301851
>No one is buying
>Packing and shipping is the problem
Which is it??? Kys u fucking dipshit

>>17301371
I gave up red meat anyway to do a low-cholesterol diet, so lots of vegetables, non-farm raised salmon, tilapia, chicken breast, occasional fake meat stuff if it's on sale (cuz they're very expensive and I'm not moneybags).

>>17301875
I've been trapping rabbits and squirrels

>>17301864
What? The "no one" refers to meat distributors. Farmers normally sell to distributors which get it packed and shipped to grocery stores. If the distributors don't buy from farmers then they have no reason to raise livestock and will kill it off. Go be stupid someplace else.

>>17301883
Farmers don't send their cattle to auction anymore?

I have literally never seen a store be out of meat. Is this some strange European thing

>>17301905
>walmart
>european
You been taking retard pills again?

>>17301911
Your point europoor?

>>17301905
Combination of widespread covid infections + inclement weather in a lot of states that supply stuff. My local (NJ) ran out of chicken for a day after that big storm hit the southeast a couple weeks ago.

>>17301384
This is correct.

>>17301993
sad!

>>17301384
how feasible/wasteful is it without a dedicated freezer i want to save money not drop a couple grand

>>17301743
>Yeah because the supply chain problems have definitely gotten better not worse since then

yes? I mean back in 2020 I would see stores out of meat, water, toilet paper. I havent seen anything like that for over a year

>>17301728
No stop. It's bad ok? Tucker Carlson said so and told me that anyone who said otherwise was a socialist illegal immigrant who personally stole my job from the walmart.

>>17301434
>>/pol/

>>17301371
there's other types of meat available

>>17302093
A freezer doesn’t cost a couple grand. What will cost you money is buying a gun and all of the gear, driving to the hunting locations, and getting nothing every time because you suck.

>>17301634
you actually can't. It's considered a loss by american beef standards. On top of that western drought conditions have lowered the amount of beef as ranchers couldn't get water let alone alfalfa for their beef

>>17301371
Should have stocked up months ago.

>>17301371
Where was this exactly? In the past two weeks there were just as many major winter storms across the country, each affecting up to 100 million.
There was obviously going to be a rush.

>>17301875
>Giving up red meat to eat talapia
Fucking retard

>>17301761
I have a CDL and haven't worked since corona hit, why would anyone drive trucks for $17/hr when you can get paid $15 for a significantly less stressful job anywhere else.

>>17301371
beenz

None of the grocery stores in my area have been running out of things..

YOu live in a shithole.

one of the fastest growing cities in the US and you fuckers need to stop moving here.

>>17302638
Well something sure is making people hate democrats at the fastest pace in Gallup polling history so either you're full of shit shills or you are in an extreme minority

>>17302640
it's the aliens

>>17302625
Wow, I thought truck drivers got paid at least $20. Hell, I personally wouldn't drive a truck for less than $25.

>>17302644
He's some retarded Mexican/burnout. A simple milk delivery truck with a predefined local route in my town in the Midwest starts at $28 an hour and they'll even take you without a CDL and lay you to get it.

>>17302648
Wow that sounds really nice and totally not made up at all.
