Click the 1 year button. What does it show you? Glad we agree, grocery prices are in no way going down.

But also, seriously, why do you ppl do this to yourselves?

If you want to get trash food, I'll tell you my Pepsi product price has also gone down.Basically what you're saying is prices aren't going down.. but if some are it doesn’t matter.


So "some" = "eggs and dairy" (but also 95% crappy, synthetic, over-processed, toxic foods?)

Come on now

A big part of this food costs escalation problem started in 2021 with the un-necessary shut down of the entire economy during the Covid Hoax-a-thon.

Then came wide-spread reports of wanton destruction of food processing plants, herds of beef cattle and chicken farms (almost as if it was all planned.)

The last part of the "rising cost of food" equation is hyper-inflation (printed $$$) and devaluation of the U$D.

Food (real / quality anyway) will never again be decreasing during our lifetime.

If you think we can tariff our way into Hawaii replacing the US coffee market (99% of which is imported) you’re simply helpless.


I never said that

You said we do not grow coffee here and never will. You lied

Go to your local grocery store and you will find Kona coffee to buy

Sorry you cant understand that

The argument is “supermarket prices are going down”, your counter is 3 groceries. 3. Are you of the mind people only buy 3 things? What even is this jibberish arse talking point?

Fine. Here’s the 1 year graph. Consder not gaslighting yourself for change.

EA, most everything you said is true- especially regarding causes.

But your last line is disingenuous… The absolute “will never be decreasing in our lifetimes” absolutely ignores three actual examples.

Prices almost never tend to decrease… almost never. Almost.

It’s three common purchases for me. Feel free to add your own.

It's a great graph.

BUT

Trump's ridiculously and un-precedented shut down and interruption of the entire US economy (including tens of thousands of small - medium businesses) contributed mightily to food escalation during The Turnip's run.

That cost-spike of food occurring from 2021-now was going to happen regardless of whether Biden or George Washington were President.

A point that nobody gives a shite about. We’re talking about the price ( & tariffs) surrounding coffee. The mere existence of a very tiny coffee producer on a small island state isn’t relevant in that context.

Hell, what do you think the cost of shipping that much hypothetical Hawaiian coffee to the other 49 would do to the price??

DEEPLY unserious

Screenshot or comment on specifics. I am more than certain there are great examples, such as beef. I’m not arguing with links when I put my own effort in to bring actual examples.

Dont get angry cause you lied

And if you dont like the price then stop drinking coffee. Its not essential

I’m sorry, can you not read the title of graphs? Is that what’s giving you so much trouble?

Do you not know the Fred is? Are you a 12yo?

Grocery prices even at shithole stores like WalMart are off the charts. This has been a huge failure on Trumps part considering his promises.
