Food inflation is when the price of the food we buy keeps going up over time.
00:05
It means your weekly shop costs more, even if you're buying the same things as before.
00:10
Recently in the UK, prices for everyday items like eggs, butter, coffee and meat have risen faster than usual.
00:18
This happens for a few reasons.
00:20
Global shortages, higher transport and energy costs, and even changes in farming and taxes.
00:27
When these costs rise, supermarkets pass them on to shoppers.
