Fast-food prices have climbed 55% since 2018, new report finds - The Business Journal — Grocery prices remain high

Food prices have risen for the second month in a row. Fast-food prices have gone up by 55% since 2018. Inflation in October was 8.27%, with food prices experiencing minor reductions. However, the overall cost of everyday items remains elevated. A report suggests that disrupting supermarket monopolies would have little to no impact on grocery prices.

“Food prices have risen for the second month in a row,” — Hugo Halloway, senior market analyst at Shipley Ford Analytics, added during the briefing.
