Yes, I have to admit that the prices of a lot of produce has gone through the roof. Funny but our esteemed governments claim "inflation is steady at 1.2%".... Sure...
I've got to also admit that I've been 'buying local' a hell of a lot more often. It reminds me of when I was a brat and the most abundant veggies were 'winter' ones like cabbages, rutabagas and turnips, carrots, parsnips, etc. There may not be a ton of variety, but we're still eating reasonably well without going broke. And I guess a bonus is that I am test-driving a lot of old recipes from Madame Benoit.
Oddly enough, the prices of frozen vegetables, often imported from the US also, has not seen any major price spike. Yet... |
