Not only are prices up, but sizes are down.
A good indication of this is when the barcode changes but the price mark pack cost is the same. But I guess only us who work in shops will notice things like this.
If beans and a jacket potato is counted as one your greatest pleasures then I am sorry for you
I got 99 problems but my spud ain't one.

Another way of noticing it is when online shopping and looking through 'favourites' only to see them gone and replaced by what is effectively the same thing at the same price but lower weight / size / specification etc.

For too long the burden of Brexit has been borne by our hard working Tory MPs.
I welcome the price rises so that we can truly all ” be in this together”
Let The Lion Roar.
Indeed Zippy. 😉
We are cutting right back on food shopping so that we have enough money to pay our energy bills.
I wonder if Soylent Green tastes like chicken?
who knows, we can only afford red and yellow flavours.
I haven’t noticed any change in the basics
Well, many of them cost more here in the UK than they did not very long ago (and the fresh stuff is often less fresh or missing). Flour might be back down (hurrah for home pizza makers) but plenty of other absolute basics, from butter to carrots, are still much more expensive.
10 litres of stock
That’s a hell of a lot! The third meal we get from a chicken tends to be a risotto made with stock. Super cheap and tasty.
@Poolman Thanks for the Kerridge Beans idea. Those thinking of copying bear in mind that the recipe in the comments under the video differs from what is made in the film.
We'll be eating them with cheese and baked potatoes this evening, The Vegan will be having sheese. Dal is also a cheap and filling dish (butternut and red lentil is a staple here).
