Nothing really high about it except the price off season.

I'm telling you there was nothing to scrape off with your teeth.
It was like an asbestos shingle all the way down.
Of course the same bunch got a ((deal))) on whole turkeys one year.
The meat was rancid and nobody noticed but us farm guys.

I think they got the same ((deal)) on the artichokes never saw them again in ten years.
