I keep saying l would, but this time l definitely will. The price of my favorite multi -grain bread has gone up again.
Time for me to stop procrastinating and and bake my own bread.
It will be cheaper, tastier and l will know the exact ingredients that are in it - no preservatives for sure.
Of course l will have to factor in the use of my gas when baking, but l can bake other foods at the same time.
Which food that you love is now more expensive than a couple years back.? Do you substitute or continue to buy it?

Most foods are more expensive than a year ago. We just buy them anyway.

I think cake price has increased a lot than in the past. I don't often buy cakes since I found it's easy for me to bake them. Sometimes I found it is even harder to bake the bread since the dough needs some time to rise. And it is difficult in winter. Whereas it is alright to make a cake anytime.

@Kandae11 thanks Kandase it is a fry of poppy seeds. The poppy seeds are brought in powder form. Then with water they are mixed and onion and chilli is added. Then the thing is mixed and grinded and fried. It tastes awesome

In India most of the food item prices have gone up, especially fruits and milk products. I make rotis with multi grain flours everyday and buy brown bread to make French toasts.

@Kandae11 Getting cooked food everyday is not economical and unhealthy too.

I bake a lot of our bread. It tastes better and it does save money. Our local grocery wants $5 for a loaf of rye, and several of the really good multigrains are at least $6. That's a lot for just bread in my opinion.

Multigrain, larger loaf, I cannot remember the brand. When I saw the price, I walked away.
Neighbor got a loaf of rye, she knows that's my favorite. She found it on sale for $4.49 and thought that was a bargain. It's just difficult sometimes to find any bargains, isn't it?

it's really great if we can make our own food. Of course because we know what is contained in it. I used to really like the chicken katsu in curry sauce near my house and bought it a lot. But, as time goes by, the price keeps going up and up. So now, I also started making my own katsu. I'm so happy, because I can get a bigger portion of katsu.

Everything is more expensive. I always wait for sales. Things like butter and eggs that we use a lot are way more expensive.

I have not compared but I am sure every food would have become more expensive.

One thing here is the price of Crisco vegetable shortening. Not long ago it was $5 a can, now it's over $10. I only use it when we fry fish or shrimp and I do reuse it a couple of times. But it is way too expensive.

@Kandae11 I tried the Walmart brand, but it's just not as good.

The price of bread has really skyrocketed here too
Making your own does sound like a good way to save money and enjoy your own bread. I've talked about making bread too but I never do
