Idk man ground beef is still like $3 a pound for me, milk $2.70 a gallon, pasta $1 a pound. I'm not saying some things haven't gotten more expensive because they have, but my grocery bill from 2 years ago is like 20-30% more expensive now.
Grocery prices can vary widely depending on location. The absolute cheapest Walmart ground beef I can get is $4.50 per pound and milk is $3.62 a gallon. Pasta is a $1 pound and eggs are relatively cheap here. Produce has gone through the roof.
lucky. in Australia milk +50%, bread and rice +100%, pasta only about 20%, meats are almost out of reach ($12aud for 12 shitty supermarket sausages about 1kg worth is about as cheap as it gets. fruit and veg has always been volatile and fluctuates but I would say on average 20% more now
People in the US scream about inflation but many of them have no idea how bad it is in other countries. Places where food products are sparse or imported are extremely expensive. There's not that much stuff we don't produce or grow in the US.
My buddy in Ghana has been especially hard hit. I’ve increased my remittances because he literally can’t afford to eat every day anymore on his wage.
