Interesting about the roast. I don’t buy roast or steak, but ground round is on sale here this week at one chain for $3.99 a pound.
One thing I found in short supply is canned pumpkin! I had decided to start getting stocked for the holidays in case it took a couple weeks to locate items. I assume it’s due to the aluminum shortage.

I assume it’s due to the aluminum shortage.Aluminum is not used for canning.
2 weeks ago 80/20 was $1.68lb (10 lb packs) at my closest grocery store (here in the Midwest).
Hamburg means meat loaf and lotsa sandwiches. Bought 80% ground beef at Aldi yesterday $2.79/lb.

Can’t stand pumpkin. One can would be a lifetime supply for me. I could pass it on to the kids, unopened.
No canned pumpkin to be found in my little corner of western MA.
Not a huge seller most of the time here, but it’s odd that it cannot be found this time of year.
The small cans of pumpkin are $2.89 at Krogers.

According to Libby’s, who grow the most pumpkins for pie use, they had a wonky growing season, but are getting caught up now that the pumpkins were ripe enough to harvest.

Morton, Illinois is the pumpkin capital of the world. Illinois is where the two major canning companies obtain their supply. Last year’s pumpkin crop sucked, and it would be the last of that that is still on the shelves. This year’s crop was great, one of the best, but it may not yet be in full processing so is about to arrive on shelves.
