I really must stop reading the newspapers.

Looks like everyone will be on a diet whether or nor they want to be next year.

Telegraph says that by the middle of 2013, the basket of food prices tracked by the United Nations could climb 15pc from current levels, according to the bank's analysts.

Does anyone know?

There's nothing in the basket

All they do is monitor the commodities markets for different foodstuffs

So the increase(s) are just the usual global forces- i.e w/b ankers playing the market.
