Pork Prices Fall Amid Broad Food Price Shifts
The Associated Press reports a sharp break in pork prices this week with some cuts up to 20 cents a pound after earlier dollar-level shifts. Retail pork chops fell from 95 to 75 cents a pound in New York stores, while other meats edged down 2 to 10 cents nationwide along the Atlantic Coast. Eggs rose, produce backs improved with new crops, and beef remains steady, as warmer weather brings more fruit and vegetable varieties.
