Reply To: How much $$$ does a typical Frum family spend on groceries per week?

Reb Yosef: You were probably focused on your usual heilege endavors and missed the news several weeks ago when the Democratic controlled state legislature in Connecticut enacted new laws mandating a transition to vegetarian diets in the state by 2025 to help combat global warming (given that the red meat food cycle and bovine emissions are known to be one of the primary sources of methane). The law provided a narrow exemption for yidden for a de minimis Shabbos portion of fleishto satisfy Halacha and minhagim. CT Lawyer was one of the first to sign the pledge and commit to achieve compliance with the new statute and has banned steaks from his Connecticut estate (although he might indulge periodically visiting misphaca in Brooklyn). From now on its only tofu chulent and Impossible Burgers.
