Food prices went way up because;

It snowed.
It rained.
It didn’t rain.
It should have rained.
It was hot.
It was cold.

It’s prolly one of them. Or more likely, it is because the Republicans don’t want to see hussein succeed so they got together with the Koch Bros and raised the prices. At least that is what the liberals tell me.

It’s not food inflation, it’s inflation inflation. Food is up, gas is up, healthcare is up. What isn’t up in price. Magazines that used to cost $3 or $4 now cost $5 and $6. A guy I know who runs a grocery store said that they don’t sell ice cream in half gallons anymore, it is sold in one and a half quarts. Classic evidence of inflation. Listen, the Fed has been pumping billions of ‘new’ dollars into the economy for years now. What do people expect is going to happen?

A large part of it is the ethanol mandates, pouring corn into our fuel tanks instead of feeding people and livestock.
Part of it is the drought in California, pouring water into the Pacific in the name of the smelt instead of watering crops.
