Maybe it's a plot by PETA?

The grocery store ads came out today. Now, meat prices have been going up for a while, but I noticed something today that made me blink a few times.

Whole pork loin roast - $1.99/lb
Boneless, skinless chicken breast - $1.99/lb
Hamburger - $1.99/lb

Remember when hamburger was the cheap meat, what you fixed because you couldn't afford a roast, much less steak? Of course, if you're talking beef, $1.99/lb is still cheap. I just find it horrifying that chicken breast and hamburger cost the same.

At this rate we're all going to wind up vegetarians by default. Who can afford to be a meat eater anymore?
