If you think you’re paying more at the grocery store “You haven’t seen anything yet”

End time Bible Ezekial 33:6 But if the watchman see the sword come, and blow not the trumpet, and the people be not warned; if the sword come, and take any person from among them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood will I require at the watchman’s hand.

If you think you’re paying more at the grocery store you’re not wrong. Wholesale prices are at record highs and some items are scarce.

According to the Labor Department, wholesale prices jumped 8.3 percent from August of this year compared to August of 2020  the biggest gain since the department started tracking those prices more than a decade ago.

SuperMarketGuru.Com and food industry analyst Phil Lembert said, “Prices are going to continue to go up for a good year and a half. “The biggest increases we will see have to do with anything with animals,” he said, “Whether it’s eggs or milk or pork or beef.”

General supply chain issues like bottlenecks at Ports, “We have a huge problem with a lack of truck drivers,” Lembert said.  Supplies have decreased as prices rise. “Retailers who are filling out their orders to fill their shelves are not getting what they order,” Lembert said.

“It’s estimated to be anywhere between 50 and 70 percent of what they order.” Why higher prices? “Turbulence and volatility.” “Unprecedented times.” But one of the biggies is “supply chain disruption.”

Food producers have struggled with shortages, bottlenecks, and transportation, weather, and labor woes, all of which have caused food prices to rise. Meat, poultry, fish, and eggs are up 5.9 percent over last year, and up 15.7 percent from prices in August 2019, before the pandemic.

Last year, transporting a 40-foot steel container cost $1,920; today, the cost can be more than $14,000, according to Brittain Ladd, chief marketing officer at Kuecker Pulse Integration, a robotics and logistics automation company in Kansas.

For many food products, it’s not just shipping and ingredients that have risen in price, but also the product packaging.

“Restaurant prices have been rising at higher-than-normal rates,” said Jayson Lusk, the head of the Department of Agricultural Economics at Purdue University. “There are a variety of drivers, but rising wage rates and lack of workers are key factors.”
