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.

Yes, but, junk food aside, what about prices of real food?
Well, let me hasten to add that formerly I used to have one Diet Coke every couple of weeks with chili, pizza, or some such item, and a 6 pack would last me a month or more. I have now sworn off Coke (and Pepsi too) because of their ridiculous pricing for what is essentially carbonated water with coloring. My go to drink now is tonic water with lime juice.... contains quinine, good for defense against colds etc.
For real food, yes, we are indeed seeing an increase. Actually we're seeing an increase in EVERYTHING.... our pest control company announced a price increase, as did our utilities and water company. Every single thing one eats, drinks, puts in a car, uses to warm (or cool) a house, it's ALL increased.
Insert a Joe Biden "I DID THAT" sticker here.
Don't insult carbonated water like that! I drink flavored seltzer and it's great. I pay like 60 cents a quart-sized bottle.
Soda is either syrup and acid, or Splenda and acid xD
No matter how you look at soft drinks, it's still junk food with no nutritional value.
Yup, that's whyI just do seltzer water.
