- South Omaha Butcher Sounds Off on Imported Beef Plan to Cut Hamburger Prices
- Runtime

- Date posted
- 2 days ago
- Description
- 🥩 The federal government plans to sell 300,000 metric tons of imported beef over the next three months to help lower hamburger prices.
🐄 Ken Stoysich of Stoysich's House of Sausage in South Omaha says he won't be using any of it — his shop sticks to 100% U.S., mostly locally sourced beef.
🍔 Stoysich believes the imported beef will mostly go to fast food, easing supply and slightly lowering ground beef prices — but steaks and other cuts won't see a discount.
🏷️ Shoppers should check labels: "Product of USA" means the animal was born, raised, slaughtered and processed in the U.S. Imported or blended beef must show country of origin near the nutrition label.

🍔 What Ken Stoysich of Stoysich's House of Sausage says:
• He sources all his beef locally and questions why anyone would import it given Midwest quality
• Believes imported beef will mostly go to fast food, easing grocery store supply and slightly lowering ground beef prices
• The exemptions only apply to beef trimmings for ground beef — don't expect cheaper steaks, and holiday prices are still expected to rise
• Shoppers should check labels: "Product of USA" means born, raised, and processed in the U.S., while imported or blended beef shows country of origin in small print

📋 Gray Media's Jon Decker reports from the White House:
• The U.S. response came hours after Iran attempted to attack American targets in the Middle East

• Trump warns Iran will be hit "at a much harder and higher level" if it retaliates
• The State Department issued a travel warning for Americans in the Middle East, citing possible flight cancellations and airspace closures
• Oil prices spiked, with Brent crude nearing $94 a barrel — raising concerns gas prices won't drop anytime soon

- 📦 Hundreds of packages a day are dropping from the sky in Papillion as Amazon's Prime Air drone delivery service expands.
🚁 What First Alert 6 found:
• Amazon says it's adapted packaging after early issues with wind blowing packages away
• First Alert 6 meteorologists say sustained winds of 35-40 mph create dangerous flying conditions for the 80-pound drones — weather that occurs only a couple times a year
• Papillion Police Lt. Kurt McClannan says his safety concerns eased after visiting the fulfillment center and seeing the drones' redundancy systems
• Deliveries currently reach about 7.5 miles from the fulfillment center, with plans to expand across the Omaha metro
