Not sure about US prices, but coffee also got more expensive in general because of bad harvests. Seems to be climate change related. Which Trump is doing everything to accelerate.

Didn’t know that! Yes even the cheap coffee has gone up by a few dollars. To the point where I buy whatever is on sale.

Taco is bringing to Americans how it felt to live under Soviet government.

Riiiight...

American and Soviet citizens eat about the same amount of food each day but the Soviet diet may be more nutritious.

Americans eat more meat and fish, more sugar, more dairy products and eggs, and more fats and oils and less grain than the average Soviet citizen, and consume more calories. Generally held nutritional standards suggest individuals need fewer calories, less meat, less sugar and more grain to stay fit.
