Restaurants Cut Surf and Turf Specials from Menus amid Record Levels of Inflation
[BREITBART] Restaurants across the nation are cutting specific promotions and reworking menu specials amid record inflation levels.
Food prices were up 7.9 percent in February compared to one year ago, and March’s numbers are expected to continue the upward trend when they are released Tuesday.
After one year’s worth of rising inflation, consumers across the country are swapping expensive items for cheaper counterparts, causing retail stores and restaurants to rethink their sales and menu deals.
In January, Beef ’O’ Brady’s CEO Chris Elliott removed the restaurant’s renowned surf and turf special from the menu after seeing signs that consumers were being impacted by rising inflation.
"People are looking for deals; they’re getting hammered everywhere — at the gas station, at the grocery store," Elliot said.
