| Soar like the wind beef prices, soar like the wind |
Anyone thinking of opening a butcher shop this year? Probably not right. In February, the average retail price per pound for beef was $3.87, up 12.4% versus a year ago, according to market research firm FreshLook Data. The average retail price for a pound of chicken was up 3.9% in February versus a year ago, turkey was up 5.4%, veal up 6.7% and pork up 10%.
Sweet.
