We have a long way to go until groceries impact household budgets. It’s been dropping for decades, it’s just more visible because you look at the prices every week [/quote]

Can they update that graph to reflect November 2022 though?

I believe -- no, I know for certain -- that the cost of food has risen in the past year compared with 2019.[/quote]

Granted but unless food has literally doubled it’s likely no more expensive than the 80s. [/quote]

Some food has definitely doubled. Most food prices I would say is probably close to being double. [/quote]

We are spending about double on groceries since 2019. Part of that is our kids getting bigger and their appetites growing as well, but prices are definitely a factor. We shop at Aldi and buy pretty cheap food already, so I don't see a path to changing habits and reducing spending. [/quote]
