Bakeries are folding everywhere, I wonder if it's because of corporate competition? Or if its because their hours aren't when the consumers are out. Where I'm from, there's only two family owned bakeries within 40 minutes of me, and they are surviving only because they are open within a certain time frame. Bakery that closes at 9:30 AM? Guaranteed failure.
Because people are eating less grain in general.
One of my main passions in life is fitness. Most everyone I know is on a paleo, keto, low carb style diet.
For a long time grain companies bought off scientists and the USDA to try to say grain was good for you. It’s not really. You could remove grain from your diet completely and be not just fine but healthier.
It’s carbs especially complex carbs that make you fat. Not fat! You need good fat to burn fat.
I agree with you on that, but our area’s least favorite food is literally “anything gluten free”.
This I can agree with. A lot of the local places near me did not adapt with the times.
But at the same time I know for a fact half the meat shops and bakeries closed because they can't hire garbage young kids for 12$ an hour. Let alone 15$. It is a fucked situation. My main butcher is also one of my pool customers. This is a 3rd generation meat shop. They will be done after Dean retires. No young adult wants to be a butcher in our area(gotta get the educational college) and he simply can't pay people enough to keep them interested in the first place.
I think this is a purely economical problem. And it was only exasperated because big corporations basically own everything.
Want to open up a chicken place? LMAOOOO good luck you will have to buy your chicken at a higher price. Because between Popeyes, KFC, and McDonalds you ain't getting any well sourced cheap chicken. My cousin is a major head chef. He has worked at some of the most fine restaurants in the Detroit area. What he has told me in regards to acquiring good meat is absolutely ridiculous.
maybe the lack of available cheap labor is pushing for open borders? if we all make the conx and stop eating/buying multi-national corp. stuff, things sort themselves out.
Lucky for me, I raise livestock. And if I need to buy meat (pork, chicken and beef) I know several folks who raise commercial cattle.
That sounds amazing to me. I wish I could. I would have to move north. Wouldn't be tough, but I do have a good job here that can't move with me lol
I do hunt, and fish. So every freezer is full of meat. And this year I just started buying half a cow with my family. We figured it would be a good time.
I would love fishing for Lakers in your area, but I live in a desert pretty much ?
