Sticker Shock!!! I just priced BUTTER, and it is up to $5.29 for 4 sticks!!!!

They are definitely "sticking" it to us...😰

I can't remember EVERY price before inflation, but I remember ALWAYS paying $3.99 for store brand butter. I thought that was expensive.

What are some pre-Biden and post Biden prices you remember from YOUR local grocery store?

I know this post is about butter but whipping cream has gone way up in price even if you can find it on the shelves. Aldi’s had the best prices and they don’t always get it shipped to the store. I found two recipes for whipped cream substitute made with milk and one version uses corn starch as a thickener and one version uses rice starch you make from cooked rice. Both looked good, you sweeten it and add some vanilla.

@cherokeepatti Oh I can relate,,, whipping cream is hard to get now.... almost never on the shelves. I was going to get some to use for Thanksgiving... none to be had last night. Quart was over 6 bucks according to shelf sticker but no product. Half and Half is almost 2 bucks a pint... that is almost triple in price. Thanks again "Joe"...

@heavyone2 well I will try the rice version of the whipped cream substitute, it might work, we’ll see.
