I have sticker shock from the prices. A small piece of soup chuck to make a pot of soup was $10.59 a pound. This is supposed to be the cheap meat. And I even skipped a food group ... chocolate. Even I won't spend $5 for a small bag. Stock up now, because this is only going to get worse.

Houston, Texas here.
Simple chuck for soup, or beef stew meat still about $4.50 per pound. Decent pork roast or pork steaks, ribs, etc about $3.50 to $4.00 per pound.
Chicken prices increased dramatically for Wings ( Superbowl Sunday coming up) but overall chicken is roughly the same.
No increase in fresh veggie prices.
There are increased in some items, but nothing really alarming.
Same here in North Jersey. Must be a distribution thing, and how far you live from where it's processed or from a major port/hub.
