Just one year after the White House celebrated a discount on the price of Fourth of July barbecues, Americans are facing an increase in the cost of the festivities.
On July 1, 2021, the White House tweeted, “Planning a cookout this year? Ketchup on the news. According to the Farm Bureau, the cost of a 4th of July BBQ is down from last year.”
The statement continued, “It’s a fact you must-hear(d). Hot dog, the Biden economic plan is working. And that’s something we can all relish.”
The tweet included a GIF showing the different prices of items included in a Fourth of July barbecue.
One part of the GIF said, “The cost of a Fourth of July cookout in 2021 is down $0.16 from last year.”
The Farm Bureau analysis from 2021 showed “the average cost of a summer cookout for 10 people remains affordable at $59.50, or less than $6 per person. The cost for the cookout is down just 16 cents (less than 1%) from last year, but 8% higher compared to 2019.”
