  1. We have been comparing prices from all the grocery stores of everything and buying wherever the less expensive items are. We spend extra hours on grocery day going to 4 different grocery stores.

  2. And the MAGAt Trump groupies still somehow are talking about how low their grocery bill is, on social media. I am not entirely sure where in the HELL that they are shopping at, because even the "discount" grocery stores, are higher in price than they were 6 months ago.

  3. It's a mixture of corporate greed since most of our food is owned by like 4 massive corporations, tariffs (a sales tax on the consumer), immigration raids on the field workers, and inflation rising while pay stays the same.

    It's going to get worse. I'd buy extra rice and beans.

  4. Is why mankind needs to go away from these primitive ways of living. Home, food, all education, and universal healthcare for ALL with zero cost. You can thank Republicans over the last 100 years for wanting to privatize every damn thing. Literally. Only thing left is breathing. And they would.

  5. June 2024 to June 2025, food prices in the United States rose by 3.0% inflation by 2.7%.

    The trend shows food inflation cooling compared to previous years (e.g., 5.8% in 2023 and 9.9% in 2022).

    Factors like supply chain stabilization and lower energy prices have contributed to this slowdown.

  6. Try the current health cost! youtu.be/w4Kjk0aos0k Approximately 1,000 metric tonnes (about 2.2 million pounds) of Roundup, which contains glyphosate, is applied to the Lake Erie watershed annually. This herbicide is widely used in agriculture, ... on genetically modified crops like corn and soybeans

  7. Why complain? You voted for Trump. Ask him to pay for groceries. The world is paying a heavy price because of deranged American voters

  9. Wait until next year, when US food prices reflect Trump's punitive 10% tariffs on imports of Canadian potash, that US farmers need for fertilizer to grow their crops.

    And with Trump's arbitrary and volatile tariff changes, that 10% tariff could go up.

    Good going, MAGA, electing that imbecile. 🙄

  10. The food insecurity that climate change is likely to create certainly doesn't need tariffs and the deportation of the workers in the fields added to the problem.

    This only gets worse under the current Administration.

  19. How are paper plates (plain white floppy ones that you need 3 to hold food ), canned cat food, detergent. and garbage bags going up in price in 2 weeks? Are we getting them from out of the country and tariffs being applied? Or stores just jacking up prices while they can get away with it ? 🤔

  20. But according to Donald Trump the cost of gasoline has dropped by 24,023%, the cost of new automobiles has dropped by 594%, and the cost of utilities for our homes has dropped by 286,816%. Winning. Right?

  21. Of course it has. We are putting the domestic field workers in concentration camps & imposing tariffs on the imported food. Math, cause & effect….its all so hard for these repug dolts.

  23. And you have seniors and disabled trying to navigate a measly 2.5% COLA with these outrageous prices. Four (4) of my home health clients have moved back in with family in the last 5 weeks. With the cuts to healthcare & food assistance, no healthcare workers job is safe.

  24. Maybe Trump will also fire the people who disclose that "the cost of food (or groceries as Trump said) has arisen faster than overall inflation in the last year"!

  27. I would call it incompetence but they are doing this on purpose

    Someone making $1M+ a year will see a minimal increase in their income vs grocery spend

    Someone making $30K a year will see a LOT MORE

  28. The Orange Felon ran on lowering prices on day one. He has not stopped wars. He is on the path to pollute our water and air. He has eliminated research for Cancer. He is a Liar and Pedophile. He is destroying our country and making us less safe. At this point anyone who still supports this loon!?!??

  33. To average Americans, groceries are not an "old fashion word." Groceries are an eveyday fact of life for anyone without a household staff that handles the buying of food and other household needs. Has he ever made a purchase at a grocery store?

  35. 📌‼️There is not only a lot of nonsense here - our statistics are not very informative. ☝️💰 We need to show prices for simple and well-known goods. 📌 We need to show price charts. 📌💸 The inflation index is always of little importance - it does not tell anyone how to build a household budget.

  45. I'm shocked at the rise in grocery prices. I guess we will eat less, which isn't a bad idea for me but not for most people, especially children. Who the hell does trump think he is? God? A king? Never mind. We all know he's not right in the head. He's a greedy con man used to stealing from everyone.

  55. If Americans realised how they are being robed on food products perhaps they start a revolt and take out their ultra corrupt corporate oligarchs that run the show By comparison in my EU country I pay much less for grocery products. Unfortunately a huge majority of the Americans don't know any better

  59. Trump doesn't give a damn about us. In January a Minute Maid carton was $3.46, by May it was $3.96 and it is 4.47 now. I buy hamburger 10 pound packs, $25 in January, $29.95 in May now $35.96, all under Donald Trump. Shame on 80% of Southern Baptists, Assemblies of God and Mormons who voted for him!

  61. What did these stupid people think would happen when you kidnap the people doing the planting & harvesting? Did they think food appears by magic in the grocery stores? What ignorant, dangerously uninformed fools. We're all going to starve because some Chad or Bubba is afraid of a Jose or Juan.

  62. An example from a few days ago. Fresh produce, yogurt, salsa & bread most of it on sale, (store ads) fit into a 2'square cart without stacking. No meat, no butter/cheese or oils, no snack/convenience foods, no cleaners or personal products. $47 & change. This is unsustainable on a fixed income.

  67. Don't worry. Trump will appoint someone to tell you prices are 1500% lower than they were in Biden's term.

    Just don't forget to take extra money with you to the store because THEY MIGHT BE LYING TO YOU. Yep. LYING.

  69. Wait, I have a great idea: We'll charge an extra fee to import foods that aren't grown in the US, especially ones that can't be grown in the US. Surely that will drive down prices!
