Anyone else notice that food prices just keep rising?

Update:

I mean at a much faster rate than I've ever noticed before.

I was at the store bacon was $13 for a pack... 2 weeks later it was $16, then another week later it was $17.

    I've seen worse. During the 80s and 90s, I seem to recall, prices were higher every time I went to the store. If the price of something did not go up, I felt as if it had gone down.

    And I can tell you, oatmeal is awesome food.

    Do you think that it might have anything to do with the costs of doing business? Will McDonalds still have a dollar menu if entry level wages double to $15 an hour?
