The price of some of America’s favorite foods, including burgers and hot dogs, are set to soar — as annual inflation hit a 30-year high in October, the feds announced Wednesday.

Major US food companies, including Tyson Foods, Conagra and Kraft Heinz, are reportedly preparing to hike prices on some of their meat products to offset higher supplier costs, according to supplier letters to wholesale customers that were obtained by CNN.

Ball Park hot dogs and burgers, State Fair corn dogs, Jimmy Dean frozen breakfast items, Hillshire Farm sausage and lunch meat, and Hebrew National and Oscar Mayer hot dogs will all be affected, the broadcaster said.

Meat at Costco is ridiculous. the bag of burgers we get (18 1/3 lb patties) is 25.00 now. I saw packs of steak over 72.00 and beef loin for over 100. guess it hurts everywhere.

We have switched to ground turkey or “Reduced for quick sale” ground beef.

A smart loan company would collaborate with a grocery chain to put mortgage kiosks beside the meat counters.

Maybe what we need is some pre-addressed form letters that can be easily sent out to the various government entities that could do something about this inflation....if they wanted to. The envelopes for the letters could be printed up with “Let’s Go, Brandon” in big red letters.

Just today as I picked up a pack of strip steaks, the loan officer at Krogers appeared and asked if they could pre-qualify before I went to register. I did qualify for a 7 year arm for the steaks...

If this continues, $950 in shoplifted food will fit in one cart.

The less people buy, the more “reduced for quick sale” stuff there will be. For a while, anyway.

No skin off my ass. 90% of the meat we use here goes straight from the farm to the butcher shop.

I think it’s as actually legal now in some areas to fill your cart with $949 worth of crap and just leave.

You might not even be “shoplifting.”

I wonder if they provide a courtesy check-out to make sure folks are within the law. It would also help with inventory. Make sure they’re stocked up on the items popular with thieves.

Glad my kids are, pretty much grown. I basically live on coffee, sparkling water, nuts and fruit so while I find this to suck, it's not as bad as if I had a couple of kiddos to feed.

Though Christmas is at my house this year and I am expecting some pain to pay for prime rib.
