Meat, Poultry, and Fish at all time high

   I guess now would be as good a time as ever to invest in a good protein powder.  The Bureau of Labor Statistics has pointed out the obvious in their latest price index.  We all already know that the price of food is skyrocketing.  If you are one to eat out much, you'll have noticed the change in menu pricing.  Those who frequent grocery stores and do their own cooking are aware of how much less their dollar purchases.

   Higher protein diets are recommended for the majority of healthy individuals, so this information just confirms the strain on your wallet leading a healthier lifestyle can make.  There really isn't much to do about it other than be an even thriftier shopper.  There is always the dollar menu, I guess.   
   The slow carb diet, referred to in the Tim Ferris book "4-Hour Body", is actually pretty good on the wallet.  Stocking up on beans and legumes and your protein sources in bulk keeps things simple.  Frozen vegetables always come in handy.  I don't foresee the food prices, or the prices of anything for that matter, going down anytime soon.  That leaves us with two options: complain or adapt.  There is always the third option of keeping your own farm, but that isn't exactly an option for most of us.
