I heard about it and apparently from february these prices will kick in for all the basic goods foods and some as high as over 80%, like rice, pasta, how do you think think that the prices can be so high, is it due to the living crisis?

All over the place! Northwesr, , Southwest

Is this for the UK? Considering the prices of energy, general inflation and a squeeze on important commodities it wouldn't surprise me.

I read just yesterday that British manufacturing is barely treading water atm. Hard times indeed.

Some agricultural inputs up by over 200%

Also don’t confuse the increase in the price of food with the massive increase in the price of grocery.

Very often , food is the cheap part of what you buy , the rest is packaging, logistics staff costs, and other material retail costs.

The food component is often worthless otherwise why do we waste over 30%of all food production.

The only real way we’ll know is by checking the prices on Freddos

It was a pricing manager in sweden, who said it, but yes. I have noticed prices going up here in the uk as well and I guess that, we will see a world wide price increase with more or less the same percentage there.

Whilst the current financial situation is having a severe and detrimental impact on many and I think there is probably more to follow, I hope that, if nothing else, people recognise the true value of food.

The under valuing of food over a period of decades has led to the most obscene food waste.

I also read last month on how much pasta have gone up with 60% here in the uk, so it is is already happening, but with a slower pace.

Yes and also a mix with the living crisis.
