GODS WHY!!!??? THIS IS THE WORST THING I HAVE EVER HEARD!!!!

...Bad omens, friends, bad omens...

I can see it now. Bacon mages with their bacon blasts reducing entire kingdoms to slices of pork! The streets, paved in meat! The spackets, meat! The weave, a metaphysical curtain...OF MEAT.

The woods of Travance with run brown with the grease of the innocent.

The Kosher shall prosper.

Shortage is not the same as gone.
so says the baconmancer.

Supply and Demand - Bacon is worth more, gold is worth less.

I sense an increase in murders coming to Travance... Long Pig bacon.

And now, being a real life baconmancer will pay off!

Quildar mom cookies....

Quildar dad bacon?

Come on we can still eat Turkey Bacon.

AN INFERIOR SUBSTITUTION! Being totally honest, I am offended you would mention any such thing!

sorry sorry I was possessed...

There's a reason I made 3 tonnes of bacon today?

looks like i am out a job...... :blink:

1. This is a Bacon shortage in Europe, specifically in Great Britain. Not worldwide.
2. The shortage is something along the lines of 1-2%.
3. Newspapers are apparently having very, very slow news days lately.

(OOG) Apperantly someone at my school didnt get that memo cause the cost of bacon at my school has increased while the amount we get from the order has decreased.

People react to sensationalist journalism for fun and profit, film at 11.

No, really, it happens all the time. The media makes some big deal out of some little thing, and the people who supply that thing (or its competition) make an even bigger deal out of it to make a quick buck. People think bacon's going to run out? Start squeezing some extra money out of it. People think butter is bad for you? Margarine companies raise prices and laud their health benefits (replace butter and margarine every 5-10 years).

Welcome to the cold calculus of commerce. Justified by geriatric journalism.

Dure to the actual and (further) increases expected in animal food corn due to our record drought, farmers throughout the country are reducing the size of their pig herds. This will result in temporary stability or even a slight decline in pork, but come the spring and summer next year, we can all expect to see bacon rise.

That dies not detract in the least from Cameron's overall correctness in his assessment. Much of the increase in oil was/is based upon speculation. I have a very accurate idea as to bacon on the local level - every month for three years plus I have been buying 4#, much as William has (he buys more). I am willing to bed the cost is up this Thursday when Luis and I hit BJs.
