Food Prices

I been seeing this for a while notice the prices of food at the supermarket seems to go up every couple months or the size of the product is smaller? I mean 200 bucks for a week for groceries isnt much anymore for 2 people and that used to be alot. My son likes the brand named frozen foods and 1 good frozen meal is like 10+ bucks. Not looking good for the future for the middle class just saying.
.
What u guys think?

Can expect exponential price rises with Rump's policies. First he deports all the farm workers (cheap labour), then he puts tariffs on countries supplying cheaper goods like Canada forcing factories to open in USA, which means everyone will be paid a liveable wage, including those farm workers, so now food prices go way up, and the companies that process and package them have to raise their prices as all the materials used to pack and ship go way up.. wood, steel, aluminum, all tariffed.. prices going up and up. By the time it gets to grocery store the value has increased many times. The stores have to make enough money to pay their expensive staff too.
Nothing going forward will be cheaper, or better, just more people falling into poverty.
The US wanted this, they voted the maniac in.

@JamesBugman thankyou for saying this. So much is the new reality of a lunatic Despot playing with people for personal gains and the enrichment of his group of .........that always benefit him while flying under a flag of great white morality which disregards any shred of decency towards humanity. And people believe outright bold faced lies simply because it has become the norm and doesn't seem to even matter anymore
