Smoked Ham Leg Spikes to $320
Earlier today, Running W Brand took to Facebook to address a photo making the rounds on social media featuring one of their products. They confirmed that while the item is indeed theirs, it had exceeded its shelf life. They also clarified that the price and mark-up shown in the photo don’t reflect their retail pricing. The image quickly went viral, sparking widespread discussion about prices and product quality in Belize. One user humorously commented, “With the price of ham these days, I might stick with Hudut all through Christmas”. The ham in question was priced at almost eighteen dollars per pound, totaling a whopping three hundred and twenty dollars for the Smoked Ham Leg. Brodies, the store selling the ham, also responded on Facebook. They stated that the product had not exceeded its shelf life and that the pricing was accurate at the time of stocking. It said, “we are aware of a social media post claiming that a product sold at our stores exceeded its shelf life and displayed incorrect pricing. We would like to clarify that the product in question did not exceed its shelf life. The pricing on the tags accurately reflected the price at the time of ordering and stocking”. Running W Brands Meats added, “We encourage all our valued customers to always check the “Best By” date on our products to ensure freshness and quality”.
