The chicken strips is cooking, as you have to put them in a toaster oven and technically, the chicken salad and ham counts as "cooking" as you have to assemble a sandwich.

Fuck! I just remembered I forgot to get some roma tomatoes, which is also kinda "cooking" as you have to slice them and sprinkle salt in 'em.

Single guy paying $50 a week for groceries just two years ago now paying $75-80 for the same ingredients. What markup you don't see immediately is hidden by downsizing products at the same cost.

You spent almost $15 on soda. Sugar tax? Haven't heard of deposits here though.

I knew that it probably sucked to live in one of those states and I don't drink much soda? OP do they charge a deposit on cold ones(beers) too?

Yes and I'm in Michigan, so it's $0.10 per can/bottle but they're talking about getting rid of the deposit which I guess I support, as I never fucking remember to bring the damn returnables with me and there's now $1,000,000 worth stacked up in my kitchen...

This is the part of inflation nobody talks about. Suddenly that box of cereal or roll of paper towels is a little smaller in order to keep costs the same. Or the paint you buy to renovate your home is now made with subpar quality
