Kristin Shaw+FollowWhy Your Grocery Bill Might Jump SoonHeads up: if you’ve noticed food prices acting weird, here’s why. American farmers are getting squeezed hard—corn and soybean prices have crashed, but their costs haven’t budged. With China buying less from the U.S. (thanks, trade war), farmers are losing their biggest customer. If this keeps up, expect fewer deals at the store and maybe pricier groceries. Let’s hope new trade talks help out, or we’ll all feel it at checkout. #Business #Industry #FoodPrices4165Share
Jennifer Reyes+FollowWhy Your Frozen Peas Might Get Pricier SoonHeads up, frozen veggie fans: British farmers are sounding the alarm about a pea shortage after a super dry, hot spring.

Maybe it’s time to try growing a pot of peas at home? #Business #Industry #FoodPrices22Share
Annette Jones+FollowDetroit’s food price gap: Why are we paying more?Detroiters are spending hundreds of millions at suburban stores each year, all because groceries cost so much more in the city. Milk that’s $4.42 in Detroit can be found for $2.99 just a short drive away. It’s not just about the money—rising prices, fewer big chains, and cuts to food assistance are squeezing families hard. Yet, some local stores like Save A Lot are bucking the trend with lower prices and cleaner aisles than people expect. Is it worth the drive, or should we support neighborhood markets? How are you coping with these rising costs? #Food #Detroit #FoodPrices00Share
