    You didn’t mention meat. In Australia good beef has gone from about $30/kg up to anywhere from $45 to $60 and higher.

    Chicken used to be cheap. Not anymore.

    Lamb is now basically a rich person’s food. Good luck buying quality lamb.

    Our supermarkets now have rfid chips on expensive cuts of meat, as they’re so expensive. $18 a steak. RFID that thing.

      they’re talking about broccoli and tofu. I doubt they care much about meat.

      I’m in Canada, we grow beef locally and I’m paying that price for good steak. The other week I was grabbing protein for dinner, and beef was not much more than chicken which blew my mind.

        bird flu was the reason for chicken prices rising so rapidly

      I don’t eat meat as a part of my diet, so I don’t bother keeping track of those prices, nor is it relevant to my food budget per month. My comment was just to detail my experience.
