Swine Spectator
is Blowin Smoke!
Weather sucks today. 36 degrees with a snow/sleet wintery mix. Seems like a good day to make chili, not my usual totally from scratch 9 pepper chili, but a basic 3 pepper chili (Ancho, Pasilla, and Chipotle) w/ ground beef and dices stew meat.
I go to the store. 85/15 ground meat on sale $4.49/lb. Stew meat on sale $4.99/lb. I get some onion, bell pepper, garlic, and fire-roasted tomatoes.
The kids like cheese and Fritos Scoops with theirs. Grated cheese was $1.99 for 8 oz ($4.00/lb), but Jesus Palominos! a 9 oz bag of Scoops was $5.89!!!! That is nearly $10.50/lb. For. Frickin'. Corn. Chips!!!
I assure you they will eat every last chip.
