Why your food is costing more money
Wheat, corn, and soybean prices are surging; is ethanol to blame?
WASHINGTON - If you’re fuming about how high gasoline prices have gotten, why not relax with a nice meal?
Perhaps a few beers and a turkey sandwich? Maybe a chicken Caesar salad?
Well, it's not just the price of gasoline that's going up. That beer, turkey and chicken are also costing more too.

Gotta agree with the one Senator...if you buy a $4 gallon (or pint!!) of water, don't bitch about the price of bread!
But, I don't pay that much for a gallon of water (85¢) and I AM going to bitch about the $3-plus loaf of bread
