So I keep hearing about problems with lack of space and whatnot at ports in California, why aren't ports in Oregon and Washington taking on extra load? I know they're smaller, and not directly where producers want them, but they still have rail connections and a few extra days should be better than waiting at sea. What am I missing here, just a lack of reporting on those ports already at capacity? Other limitations?

Here's a weird one for you - all the flavored cream cheese at the local Fred Meyer (Kroger) was gone with little signs saying that these products wouldn't be available for a while. Rather odd, I would have thought those were locally made like other dairy products. But it's mostly "oh, you don't have literally every flavor of Mt. Dew" or "my FedEx shipping dates are all hosed up". Absolute shortage on Gunpla though, and releases keep getting pushed back again and again. Not too surprised.

One of the BBQ/Smoking youtubers I follow actually put out a video discussing alternatives to brisket, because the price has gotten so high. Which is ironic, as brisket is supposed to be a "cheap cut". He came up with chuck roast, and was happy with the results.

Eric Cantonese posted:I'm sure the pandemic made this much worse, but I feel like this has been happening ever since food shows became popular on Food Network and Youtube. Everybody wants to slow cook "cheap" cuts of meat to show off their pot roast or ragu skills so those off cuts are not so cheap anymore. This is a great point, and Food Network/HGTV are absolute blights on our civilization.

So, is anyone actually seeing a shortage on turkeys? Everywhere I'm looking I'm finding them just fine, including tons of fresh ones. Not trying to claim that this is somehow indicative that there are no more supply chain problems, but a lot of news sources started spreading this specific story and there seems to be little actually supporting it.

I heard it from local sources like the local NPR station, blips from the local tv news, etc etc. I went out to grab mine early and saw that Costco had a ton, and so did Safeway. Looking forward to picking up some leftovers this Friday. Costco was charging .99/lb for fresh, non-organic birds. Hell, Costco had presmoked/cooked turkeys you could buy for a little while. That's rather impressive.
