Original Note:
The note suggests that a 2.1% increase in food prices is unusual or high. In reality, the 20-year historical level of retail food price inflation is 2 percent per year. Inflation on food items is the same as it was before and during the Trump Administration. https://www.ers.usda.gov/amber-waves/2021/march/retail-food-price-inflation-in-2020-outpaced-historical-average-by-75-percent/
