We have locally produced eggs and milk here that cost about 30% more than eggs and milk from the mainland. Of course, I only get mainland eggs and milk. My guess is that in the near future, we won't have any milk or eggs produced locally.

It doesn't. It elected Donald Trump a few years ago, for crying out
loud. It's only getting worse.

Meat seems to have remained regular price here lately...just not on sale
so often.
 
Saw a McDonald's commercial last night. A double cheeseburger, a small
fries and 6 chicken nuggets for $3.00. Not too bad.

At my local store here (Harris Teeter) a 30-count tray of eggs is only
$1.99. Same price it's always been and always available.
 
Someone here told me that Walmart sells them even cheaper but I've never
shopped at Walmart for groceries. Just for their other stuff.

Yet, you eat live eggs with no problem. Live baby chicken embryos killed
and eaten every morning. How does that make you so special?

At those prices you should be able to enjoy a good piece of Ukelele

My first trip to the mainland was to the San Francisco Bay Area. I was quite impressed at how cheap food was. Milk seemed dirt cheap to me, it was half price. I suppose that prices were about 30% cheaper than Hawaii. My guess is that the price difference isn't so large these days.
 
The Japanese tourists that come here must be amazed at how they can buy a steak or burger for dirt cheap so I suppose we should be grateful for what we got.

if you're doing hard work and are hungry you eat it all.
some people have been lucky and blessed and able to be
picky about food.

Grits and cream of rice are indistingishable.

Really? I can get home fries at any number of diners up here. We make
them at home once in a while.
 
I generally prefer hash browns. Greater surface-area-to-volume ratio
for browning. Mmmm. Crispy potatoes.

What makes you think the person who called the police on you gave

Maybe it was Julie pretending to be somebody else who was using her name.

Julie. It doesn't seem to matter whether beer is stored hot or cold just
get some cold before serving it. Beer is not like wine which
gets better with age. Beer is for short term use. If it gets too
old (several months) it can go stale.
 
Coors Beer started that myth about keeping it cold constantly.
It wasn't true, just a good advertising gimmick to charge more
for their brand. They charged more because it *had* to be shipped
in refrigerated trucks.
 
Just buy the brand your friend likes and have a few cold ones
in the fridge. The rest can be stored in your garage or wherever.

I actually do too. The beer tastes better in a 40 vs the 12oz cans or
bottles.

I got one of his two preferred brands at Winco. Warm and far cheaper than
anywhere else. Thanks!

Not true at all. I don't hate anyone here or even in local personal life.
 
I just read this morning about Jill's BD then in this message from Nancy
Young that you had a BD a few days ago.
 
I hope you BOTH had a good birthday. Stop being such a crybaby, Steve. I
didn't know about yours a few days ago. I rarely look at that birthday
list on the old RFC site. I only mention birthdays when someone mentions
that it's *their* day.
 
I don't recall ever getting a BD greeting from you either.

I do agree with you. Screw all these chronic protesters causing all this
crap night after night, on and on.
 
They need to do what happened in Washington DC right after MLK was shot
and killed. So many of the blacks there went nuts and turned DC into a
war zone...rioting, looting, burning everything in sight.
 
As kids then we would go down to the Potomac River and look up towards
the city (about 10 miles away) and see dozens of columns of smoke rising
due to all the fires.
 
Finally on the news, they announced "Washington DC is now under martial
law and a nighttime curfew. Anyone out after dark will be shot."
Plain and simple. That seemed to end all that crap pretty fast.

Those are not a respirator, they are a SPIT GUARD! ;-) To insure YOU don't SPIT on others! A respirator is a machine which breathes for you.

I can find it at one high-end grocery store here, but not at Kroger or
the other ordinary stores. I haven't looked, but Whole Paycheck might
carry it as well.
 
Bob's Red Mill. You can order it online if you really want it.
