Fox NewsA day after getting roasted online for claiming Thanksgiving turkeys now cost $90 because of “Bidenomics,” Fox News pundit Jason Chaffetz doubled down on Tuesday by posting a picture of the bird he bought—complete with a $114 price tag.
Though Chaffetz’s intention was to prove that President Joe Biden is to blame for out-of-control food prices around the holidays, critics soon pointed out that the former GOP congressman had actually just purchased an unusually high-priced, “woke” turkey from an organic and sustainable California farm.
And while the price of a Thanksgiving dinner is still higher than pre-pandemic, the average cost for ten people is down 4.5 percent from last year, according to the American Farm Bureau Federation. Additionally, a 16-pound turkey is averaging $27.35, down 5.6 percent from a year ago.
