[QUOTE="Stocker Steve, post: 1117347, member: 1715"] I know we can grow a lot more beef, but it will require using a lot of crop residue for most folks. One of the three big grain guys in my area started selling corn stalk bales last fall. I think it is a sign. Over educated folks did some figur'in and concluded that high beef prices were not causing a lot of switching because: 1) beef consumption is already down from historical levels 2) white meat is expensive too 3) beef tastes good Some restaurants are running a lot of lobster specials because it is now cheaper than beef. So I am predicting that bacon will become a luxury item, but we will still be enjoying a lot of surf and turf in the future! :banana: [/QUOTE]
