Why are UK food prices up by 19% – and which foods are worst affected?

My wife told me that the price of sunflower oil had doubled. I said, fine, we'll just get olive oil.

For some reason she now refers to me as Marie Antoinette...

excellent new Sig "let them eat Olive?"

What I have noticed is that many packaged products have 20% reduced weight as well as a price increase. Eggs have doubled in price but the quality is very poor and they are often old (the yolk of eggs sag or break up with age). The last box; I had to throw two away something I have never had to previously do.
