I ran across an article tonight about the USDA buying up sugar to cut the supposed surplus. Guess what, stand buy and watch the prices go thru the roof. If I read this article correctly they are buying 13% off the market. No way that's not gonna affect the markets.

The Difference Between a Welfare State and a Totalitarian State is a Matter of Time.
Could be!
I'm thinking it maybe time for a run to Sams and get a few bags.
We have quite a bit in mylar.
BTW....don't put O2 absorber in bags of sugar....unless you want a sugar brick....

don't be surprised if coffee is next. Buy as much as you can
I am me,
I am free,
You can not change me.
If you try, you will see,
That I am unchangeable,
Because I am me.
I think DH will have to think twice about crabbing about my habit of adding those staples to our storage, especially if coffee does go much higher this summer.
Especially since canning season is upon us. We will be going through a ton of sugar making jams and jellies. So if you know you will be canning I guess it's time to stock up now. I only have 100 lbs now and will go through that so fast, BWRR drinks sweet tea like water so he's going to use up my canning sugar stock.
I apologize for nothing...
Great point Lady. Also if you sugar cure meats.
Just another example of useless intervention in the market.
I bought a few 10 lb bags to try to make more Kool-aid and cut back on pop. I guess I'm going to need more.
Be ready now, you won't have that chance later.
