Saw a woman at the butcher spend $250 dollars on wagyu steak, and bought another 2 kilos of lamb cutlets. Not everyone is feeling the pinch!

Christ. And here am I deciding on 6 sausages instead of 10...

10 sausages, how profligate of you ๐Ÿ˜œ

A kid in Miniest's class at school wants to be a butcher when he grows up. No wonder!

I don't even buy meat. Only exception being homebrand cat food for my pet

Wow. How much steak was that?? There's a dude at my local farmers market that does four grass fed porterhouse for 30 bucks and that plus a pack of snags or some mince does me for a month or more (I am mostly vego).

I suppose when we start eating the rich we will know they were well fed at least...

I could go some wagyu-fed, free-range billionaires right about now. Got my tummy grumbling!

From memory it was something like 6 pieces of wagu steak.
