I wouldn't call it preying, just adjusting their prices accordingly. This same thing has happened with chicken wings. Wings have become extremely popular over the last decade, and so poultry suppliers have raised the per-lb. price of wings relative to other chicken meat. Think of it this way, for every two wings that go to the market, there's a proportionate number of legs, breasts, etc. going to the market as well. If the legs aren't selling like they used to, the price of legs will drop while the wings will increase. The same thing's happening with bacon. While there is a hog shortage due to some bad livestock a few months ago (disease/infection of some sort), bacon is just selling like there's no tomorrow. Why wouldn't they up the price to match? Would you pass up a pay raise when the public/your employer is so willing to give it to you? I wouldn't.
I screwed up tonight by grossly undercooking a boneless skinless chicken breast. That was one of the first things I learned in culinary school, too.
The first time I cooked Teriyaki chicken breasts for guests on the grill, I overcooked them to approximately shoe leather hardness. The guests sucked it up and ate them, but I've been very wary of over-grilling chicken ever since.I screwed up tonight by grossly undercooking a boneless skinless chicken breast.
