Veal should not affect the price much. I haven't seen straight ground
veal for sale on its own, but a couple places sell a pre mixed triple
mix of beef, pork and veal, and some sell packages with the three side
by side in a pack, and it is not much more than hamburger.
I am reminded of a local winery restaurant where we used to dine
occasionally, but their prices soared. The last time we were there was
at least 15 years ago and one of the items on the menu was vegetable
soup ...... $14.95 !!! WTH can you put in vegetable soup that would make
it worth that much?
