Now I'm no commodity expert or anything - but this looks bad for the grocery bill - wheat prices in the last couple years.

Oh yeah, I totally see the connection between that and the price of tea in China. |
No kidding. No more Barilla thin spaghetti for .99 a lb. What is the world coming to? Today I bought non-organic milk and eggs because I can't spend $10/gallon and $5 dozen anymore. Why? Because the toll on my daily commute just went up to 8 bucks from 5. Just like that. What kind of city can raise a bridge toll from 5 to 8 bucks and not incur a massive protest? Oh. NYC. Supposedly it's to "rebuild that building at ground zero", but I'll believe it when I see it. 8 bucks. I used to drive into the city for indian food on a whim. No more. But back to wheat. Thankfully Whole Foods hasn't raised their already confiscatory prices for their amazing breads. |
