USDA: Food Prices May Increase in the Coming Months

If you successful purchased the same foods, and the same amounts as you did in late June 2018, you’d notice that what you paid increased slightly.  For the past four months, the USDA has been predicting food prices will increase between 0.5-1.5% this year.  But as Gary Crawford points out, if last month is any indication, you may start to notice a bigger jump in your grocery bill.
