OMG food prices keep going up!

[BFG Central]

Last night we went to the chip shop. (Not something i do very often)
Anyway a large bag of chips cost £2.60 which is an increase 80 pence in the last couple of months.
Now i know potatoes went up in price last year and cooking oil has gone up a little bit, Even the gas to cook them has crept up in price.

But things are getting stupid. Chips/potatoes used to be cheap food for the masses.

For example potato prices rise and the cost of chips go up and when the potato prices drop the price of chips never go down again.
This seems to be happening across the board with food.
Were being squeezed for every last penny and its not going to get any better.
I used to think there was no point growing potatoes because they were so cheap compared to the effort digging. A couple of years back i was paying £4-£5 for a 25 kg sack and now im paying that much for 5kg bag of potatoes if i shop around.
I dont believe the hype of poor potato harvests because we didnt run out of them in the shops, I know last years crops were a wash out with all the rain,
So that just boils down to artificial inflation and greed.

Sorry if this sounds like a mixed up personal rant but things are going down hill fast.
