@HealthRanger hey mike, why do you think the price increase of food hasnt been seen in places like Canada, Do you think they are focusing on the US first as in if that giant falls then the rest of the world falls? I say this as im in Canada on the loony left coast of BC n personally havent seen food increases AS OF YET- a couple of things but only pennies - our gas prices since 1st Jan up $1.21 gal, now @ $6.53 to $6.66 gal n that should raise food prices
