It’s not that your food is going up, it’s that your dollar is going down.

These prices have been going up in terms of silver and gold as well, have they not? SI, for example, hit a high of nearly $50/oz a few years ago - it is now south of $20. Shrimp, pork and beef prices are up around 40% in roughly the same time period.

I understand the point you're trying to make but I don't think it's an accurate description of what's going on here.

This is what happens when you print a lot of money.
