Food prices going down?

Funny enough no they are not going down. Coke gone up from 1:99 to 2:09 in dunnes. Bread gone up. Milk gone up again. I have noticed other things will be back later with them prices. Anyone seen anything take hikes in prices that you buy normally. The rich and poor scale widens.

Plastic bottles are a by product of oil. However they are a by product that uses a nuisance material that would otherwise have to be disposed of.
If the stuff was worth anything the bottles would be reusable.

Im not talking about coke specifically, but 7up, Club orange etc, not long since it was €1.89, more recently €1.99. Think it went from there to €2.19.

In my world, fizzy drinks packed with sugar ( or artificial sugar) would be banned. I am sure they do more harm than cigarettes, and most come in plastic bottles and are very acidic, and probably leech the plastics into the liquid, which we are then supposed to drink. How many spoons of sugar are there again in a bottle of coca cola?
