If Joe Biden cares about the environment, why does a loaf of bread and a dozen eggs cost $15? Instead of $1.50?

I have a very hard time believing a loaf of bread and some eggs cost you 15 bucks
@MartinTheFirst more like $16.

@MartinTheFirst for quality bread, not persevative cake, its +$7 a loaf, for a dozen eggs its also +$7 a dozen, true.

@checkoutanytime You're probably walking to a convenience store where they mark up the price 300% rather than an actual market place.
@MartinTheFirst no, i live in a rural area. Even farm stands are getting $5, $6 a dozen.

@checkoutanytime i dont buy it 😌
@MartinTheFirst milk is almost $5 a gallon, its absurd. A gallon of milk, a loaf of bread and a dozen eggs should not cost $5, but its gonna be a $20 bill anywhere you go.

@checkoutanytime i get farm fresh, free range eggs for 4.00. Up from last year's 3.00 per dozen.
Your 7.00 loaf of bread is the same price as it was last year.
We have artisan bread makers here too.
@Carla its all connected to the cost of fuel/energy increases.

@checkoutanytime that has much to do with it.
While you are paying prices that are obviously too high, the oil industry is reporting record profits.
And they still recieve govt subsidies.
How do you feel about that?
@Carla used & abused

@checkoutanytime exactly.

@checkoutanytime @Carla You can back each other up as much as you want under my comment, your claims are still absolutely absurd

@Carla @checkoutanytime Just because you're gonna be so damn weird about the price of bread you've forced me to look it up, here's a diagram of what the average loaf of bread costs in every state of america under year 2022

@MartinTheFirst what claims, martin? Eggs are 4.00 a dozen where i get them. Artisan bread is indeed 7.00 or higher. But...the bread the we make our pp&j's with is nowhere near to that.
I can still get two(2) very nice loaves of bread at costco for around 6.00.
The price of fuel is indeed a driving factor in price increases. As well as labour shortages and plain greed.
What about this do you disagree with?

@Carla That this dude is saying that just because he buys some overly expensive bread that this is anyone elses but his own fault. Sure the prices of everything rise, it doesn't rise the way he intends for it to sound though. ridiculous.

@Carla lol
@MartinTheFirst i eat healthy bc i care about my health. The cost never mattered until recently, is my point.
Carla · 61-69, F
@MartinTheFirst you are correct in that organic, natural and artisan made food is farrrrrr more expensive. No doubt.
There are affordable ways to get past that though...like home cooking.
