I didn't have any choice as prices have gone up so much that I was going to have my shopping list change drastically. Some of the healthiest foods are now so unaffordable for me. I have always loved produce, but now its so high here. There are few sales and the sale is still an increase from last year.
I am now shopping twice a month, so I can stick to more sale items and not get really low on food. You know its a challenge when your freezer has only a couple items in it.
What has gone up the most in your area?

Meat has gone up a lot here. Fortunatly, at the same time, I have started to like veggies more. And for proteins I use eggs and legumes.

Our food prices seem to constantly rise. Produce is crazy high here. That and meat are what runs the bill up for me. We eat very little red meat. I get more creative than ever with ways to have protein. Luckily, we like beans, tuna, etc. I can het a lot of mileage out of a chicken.

For the most part, prices are down from January but there are still supply chain issues affecting availability of products.
So we do without some things.
Beef prices are still outrageous, chicken is still not back to pre Covid prices but pork is down or at least back to a reasonable price.
Dairy and eggs are down along with cheese. Peanut butter is still high. Coffee is still up but not as bad as early this January.
Since I can't physically shop anymore, all my shopping is done online and delivered. I miss out on clearance and discounted items. I have a feeling that because prices went up so much over the four years before this year, they may never return to pre Covid levels.
