A global bacon shortage.

http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-202_162-57519703/global-bacon-shortage-unavoidable-group-says/

Quote:
...National Pig Association, "the voice of the British pig industry," warned recently that a global shortage of bacon and pork "is now unavoidable" because of shrinking herds....

Proof of either:

A) There is no God
B) God actually hates everyone, contrary to popular belief.

I was hard-pressed to select just one expression of anguish from the given options.

Another manipulated market and you're all freaking out. The producers want to raise the price they are getting for their pigs, so they reduce the herds to make a shortage. People panic, price goes up, bacon and other pork products costs more. End of story.

Boycott pork products until the prices become more reasonable. That is the only solution beyond moving to a pig friendly state and growing your own.

Taamar shared this with me a few days ago after the story first popped up on my FB news feed:
There will be no bacon shortage

This was my only take-away from Shel's link:

... a dystopian future of food lines and bacon rationing...

Chicken fried bacon. It originated at a greasy spoon roadside type joint in Texas if I understand correctly. I saw it on one of those diner type shows years ago. It went on my bucket list that day.

I can't. I'm too busy with other forms of hunting.
