The problem with your chart is it’s starts during a period of low prices, following much higher prices in the years before. Much higher than now. Personally in my area (CA) I’m seeing prices as low or lower on meat than I have in many years. Last week my local grocery store had bone in pork sirloin for 99 cents a pound. This week split chicken breasts 88 cents a pound. Tri-tip 2.48 Lb. Back around 2010 they would have been 2-3 times that.
You can deny reality but reality is still there proving you wrong.
