I russi spendono circa il 40% del loro reddito in cibo, il livello più alto degli ultimi 16 anni

True NGL, past few months been kinda rough, I didn’t feel any price increase before, past few months things like chicken got expensive, for example 1 kilo of chicken breast year ago used to be 1-2 dollar, now it’s 5+ dollars, greek yogurt is like 1 dollars per 250g aswell, cappuccino used to be 1 dollar for large cup rn 3 dollars.

It hurts me a lot as a gym rat, although I don’t see how other people spend 40% of income on foods. Like whole chicken costs like 3 dollars, grains sub 1 dollar a kilo, carrots onions potatoes etc didn’t expirience substantial price increase.

Honestly, that’s a fuckton. Supposedly, the reason sanctions didn’t really topple them over was because they produce most of the basic stuff – especially food – themselves. But i guess inflation is a bitch.

Because they like to eat quality products?

But Tucker Carlson told me how cheap all the groceries were in Russia

Still better than 150% of their income, back in the 1700s.

Where is Tucker Carlson at i have some questions

Don’t poorer people spend more money on food? This hints at the average Russian having gotten poorer.
