Remember last year when we were paying 5 bucks for a loaf of bread, when eggs were a dollar or two above what we were used to? Well, hopefully that does not happen again, especially while we find ourselves in the throes of a recession. But, as the New York Times reports today, food prices unexpectedly rose 1.5 percent in April.
For those of you who live in New York City, as I do, the idea of rising food prices is a nightmare scenario. Anyone who has a backyard, I encourage you to invest now in chickens and making your own bread. Build a cement bunker while you at it. No one knows if Pakistan will be able to keep its nuclear arsenal safe from terrorists.
