Hog-wild hog futures.

Were you upset about Cheese prices? Just wait until you see what is going on with pork:

And I though the price of bacon was already outrageous. Time to push those vegetarian pizzas!

While I hate to hear about more price increases coming our way, pork prices will not impact my business like cheese prices have. This time last year, cheese cost 75 cents per pound less than it does right now. Between my two stores, that costs me around $2500 per week. The end cost of all of my pork products would have to double for me to see an impact like that.
