Not any more.  They think you're trying to contaminate the place if you bring stuff into the store.

Bugster2 wrote:There is some kind of issue about contamination so the butcher or grocer won't cut them. I know about the meat saw but would a hack saw do the same thing? I would rarely use a butcher saw so I can't see buying one, but you never know. Sometimes I buy a pork butt or something I wish I cut down. We do have a Sawsall but I am not sure DH is willing to give it a try.

 The hams I cut are country hams that come whole. I don't think the meat dept. would cut it.  A lot of grocery stores now days don't even have the ability to cut meat anymore.

PS the one pictured is $20.00.

We had fried chicken, potato salad and bbq beans for dinner. I will probably have heartburn later on.

Tonight I was going to grill some pork and he decided at the last possible moment he wanted Taco Bell (I won't spell it the way HE pronounced it.....lol).  So, pork will be grilled tomorrow.  Taco supper tonight.

I know I am here figuring out Danes way of saying Taco Bell.

I would think, like a man, that one word relates to a Bouncing Item ? ? ?
