Food inflation? Can’t be... since the arrogant ignoramus ascended to power, food isn’t part of the inflation calculation, so that’s just crazy talk.
I know some prices have risen, but I hate to see the language bastardized by the use of hyperbolic words such as “soar.” When prices really do “soar” you won’t need a journalist to tell you about it.
Clearly the Regime led crowd chants that there is no inflation are not having the desired effect. Perhaps future articles and actions should be governed by the practices of North Korea until the people see the shining wisdom of Dear Leader.

Mass closings of Chinese restaurants sure to follow.
Please revise all CPI Calculation Formulas to eliminate any and all references to the price of beef, pork and shrimp products. This change is due to the need to avoid distortions in the CPI that would result from the obvious ongoing manipulation of the prices of these products by greedy capitalists.
Inflation will never “officially” go up, to much interest payouts tied to the inflation rate. The incredible shrinking ray is running wild at the grocery store as the amount you get keeps going down but the amount you pay is going up or maintaining. It is always amusing listening to the rationale for why food and fuel are not counted in the core inflation rate, even though they are two of the biggest impacts to the family budget.
It simply offsets the “free” medical under OdumboCare.
This is the perfect time to increase the food based ethanol in our gasoline.
