[QUOTE="burroughs85, post: 1742518, member: 42429"] I don't understand all that crap. I do know Walmart 7% lean ground beef is about $5.50/lb. (out of my pocket) when it goes into my freezer at home. There 30% fat Wally ground beef is about a buck less a pound. More fat, less money. I can't see the huge costs of making a pound of deli roast beef vs a pound of lean ground beef from Australia that even has to cross a Pacific Ocean. The deli roast beef doesn't even have to enter meat grinder. Is fuel to slow roast that deli roast beef an arm and leg? Maybe the delicatessen owner's have big markup. They do add some seasoning. I buy good SMOKED sliced lean deli ham for about $3.50-$4.oo a pound to fry with my morning eggs, over medium. There was the cost of smoking that ham. Yes, consumers might like it if the cow biz was run like the pig and chicken biz. Deli ham is pretty cheap but not Italian dry salami also made of pork. I bought a 12 oz pack of Columbus sliced salami not long ago from Walmart at about $10 for the pack. The deli meats biz must mean big markup. [/QUOTE]
