Food prices soar

  • 3 years ago
It's estimated that the economy lost billions in revenue as a result of the July riots and looting. Now, we're feeling it where it hurts the most, in our pockets. Food prices have shown significant increases. Data from August shows the average cost of food spiked massively in areas hit by the Winter riots. It's the highest it's been since last September.
