Wholesale fresh commodity Garlic was $.08/lb a year ago. It is now $1.03/# and higher. Black Pepper is going through the roof and is 'soft' at prices double what they were a year ago.
Ouch.

“I’ve been buying today. Not fun. Spice prices are through the roof. Highest I have seen in the 23 years I’ve been doing this. “
If this pans out, think what the price is going to be next year for beef, pork and chicken. Some one told me the other day to stock my freezer with beef now because next year it will be through the roof.
