Food prices skyrocket over coronavirus problems

Title (Dublin Core)

Food prices skyrocket over coronavirus problems

Description (Dublin Core)

Starting in March when the pandemic started food prices began to go up. From issues with transportation to outbreaks of Covid-19 among slaughterhouse employees food costs are showing no sign of going down. Everyone will feel the pinch in time whether your a customer or a restaurant owner. According to the article, produce is the latest food item to see price increases. With so many people already stretching every penny, the rise in food costs will just add to the stress of many. Some prices will come down as demand returns to normal, but some items may not go down in price due to issues with supply chain or other factors.
