US grocery prices rose in April, but gas spikes weren’t the only reason
Prices for food eaten at home rose 2.9% in April compared to the same month a year earlier, according to government figures released Tuesday. That was the highest year-over-year inflation rate for the category since August 2023.
High gasoline prices led vendors to tack on fuel surcharges recently. Aside from fuel costs, trade policies and extreme weather like drought have also sent prices higher.
