Do increased SAUSAGE SALES indicate a WEAK ECONOMY?

Question

Recent sales statistics indicate that Americans are buying more sausages. Experts consider sausages a cheaper substitute for higher-priced proteins, implying that people are struggling to meet food costs. That would indicate an overall weaker economy, with higher prices.

What do you think? Are sausages a good indicator of the health of the economy?

Where I live in the middle of Ohio, in a really nice suburb of the capital, I see meat overall being very expensive. I don’t see an increase in sausages being presented. Everything seems overpriced since Covid began, or a little after anyway.
But I don’t eat sausages nor pork in general because they’re not healthy. I stick with fish, chicken or eggs for protein and I’ll splurge on steak once in a while.

Or sausages have just become fashionable again. Gone are the days they were made with cheap meat.

Yes, not only that but the meat that is in the supermarket is not what it used to be. The supermarket always had good steak, hamburger and roast beefs. Now they look like they have been picked through by the vultures. I have been buying from Kansas City Steaks and other online companies.

Absolutely instead of expensive chicken 4$ pound. But this swap, instead wouldn't be needed if government stopd bad policy.

Boy, that is a sight for sore eyes.

I guess that's probably going to be all that we have one day. All of the other meats won't be affordable.
And we'll probably be lucky to even have that! Kinda like being in the depression days.

I love smoked sausage for breakfast. I’m not buying more and not buying less.

I don't think so it could be a supply chain thing. This is what they have or this is what they make available combined with a mediocre marketing campaign and Americans will eat it up. No pun intended
Americans are easily distracted

I heard Lidl is becoming more popular in USA. Maybe that's the reason

justabuddy · Answer

Maybe... but meat prices are high, so the better indicator would be buying more romen and less beef overall.

Either that or OnlyFans models have added a new routine to their content that's trending.

Wow, the Republicans' desperation to convince you a great economy is terrible is reaching amusing levels of desperation.

Perhaps, but I'd have to peruse America's economic indicators to get a true gauge of your economy.
