In a deep recession, what foods will become the most expensive? ?!
Answers:
Over here it will be tropical fruits!.
Much will depend upon where you are and what foods can be sourced locally!. Here we are not warm enough for tropical fruit, but have plenty of lamb!.
In your case it may be the opposite!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I am a former chef and cannot say which one will exactly go up, but figure the fuel prices for transport, the imported things will be higher due to the exchange rate, and like OPEC with oil when the price goes down they stop producing, the same goes for farmers and other producers, dairy, meat and some things like bread and vegetable will be affected, but it also depends on the crop yields, the better the crops the more is available and winter storms in areas like Mexico, California, Texas and Florida can be a factor with some fruits and veg if damaged or wiped out!.
I would not figure this to last more than another 4-8 month of uncertainty and then it roll up around summer to early fall of 2009, the panic and strife will be short lived, this time everyone is doing there part and it is global not just the North American or European/Asian country's alone!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It sounds more and more like a deep recession!. I would think the staples like flour, rice, protein, fruit and vegetables!. Everyone can do without twinkies, but the necessities and not convenience foods!. I think!?!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
Cheap/inexpensive foods because they are cheap (and will be in more demand by penny-pinching Americans) and even the cheap foods will cost more to produce as the financial markets go down the drain!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
