@Barchart Rising wheat prices are a reminder that food inflation can hit everyday staples surprisingly fast. The bigger question is whether this move is temporary or the start of a broader supply-driven trend.
@Barchart Bread is what we fall back on when everything else gets expensive. Two toddlers eat bread daily.
@Barchart 😂😂😂 Farmer here. Let me know when it hits $15/bu. It’ll be go through a cow before I sell any wheat below that number. No more farming at a loss for this society. Pay up or do without.
@Barchart Wheat is about 3% of what a loaf costs — the sandwich is priced on labor, packaging, and freight, all of which are stickier than the futures chart. Farm-to-shelf pass-through runs months and only ever seems to hurry in one direction.
