Well, at least we can plant more apple trees. We have more apples on our place than we can eat, and we put a bunch of applesauce in the freezer every fall. We also have neighbors with a cider press.
But the basic fact is that all foods are rising in price. Time to get those damned politicians to kill the ethanol subsidies and the gasoline requirement. That won’t be easy, because there’s a lot of graft involved.
Crop failures in foreign countries and increased demand for food outside the United States is driving up food prices here.
