same with my country , all go up sometimes even unreasonable , once the price of 1 bunch of spinach 0.8$ ordinary 0.2$
maybe one of the effects of the pandemic and the prolonged lockdown in my country and insufficient food stocks in some places. Food transportation from agricultural or production companies is hampered to distribute stock efect prom lockdown

it is true that food prices are currently still experiencing an increase due to the lockdown itself which makes the supply come late, causing an increase due to the food scarcity.
but if you look at it I think it's too crazy to increase in your country because it's already 400% increase and that's a very hefty price for just a bunch of spinach

Yeah, that's crazy; our country's food prices have risen by 100%, making it extremely difficult to buy food these days due to the pandemic. Because of the unemployed and closed businesses, inflation has been rising since the pandemic. Food demand is also increasing. Also, in terms of food transportation, it takes weeks for food to arrive, resulting in an inability to meet the demand of the people.

It is very normal for these changes to occur, if only the USA, which is considered the country with the most economic stability, its own citizens say that they no longer buy the same food with 100USD, more than 10 years ago they bought many more things with those 100USD, and It is logical the USA has inflation, but it is not noticeable like other countries, of course there are countries where their economy is crazy, such is the case of Venezuela, which have changed the monetary cone many times, because inflation is at an incalculable level Obviously the economy is so out of control that they don't even like to handle the local currency, only the dollar, and even so the dollar puts inflation on it, because food tends to go up in price in dollars, most people only worry about obtaining money to eat, other things like clothes, going on a trip, those are luxuries that only the richest can afford.
