It neva fails papap, every time us country boys find out something is good and cheap the cat gets outa the bag and the price goes through the roof. In 1973 I stood at the plaqumine ferry crossing and sold crawfish 15 cents a lb by the sac. I remember when I was a kid ya could get a big cow tongue, for 50 cents. I am sure yall have other examples of things that went up when folks found out they were good. Of course thanks to chicken breast being so popular the leg quarters are often found for less than a buck a lb.
