Food Prices Expected to Rise

While gasoline prices continue to rise, it looks like higher food prices are going to be next.
The US Department of Agriculture predicts that retail food prices will rise 3.5% in the US this year. But the Arizona Republic reports that the recent jump in wholesale food prices could be a preview of much higher retail prices.
Arizona Food Marketing Alliance President Tim McCabe says he thinks Arizona food prices could increase between 5 and 6 percent this year. That could beat the 5.5% jump in 2008, the largest increase in almost 20 years.
