Anyone in BOSTON? How is the FOOD SUPPLY?

Gordon,
Happy New Year 2011...
As a vegetarian in Boston I have notice food prices have increased by 50% over the past three years ! This includes a staple product Quinoa that was $1.99 a pound in 2008. And is now $3.69 a pound. Most recently... A loaf of whole wheat bread last week, at 1.06 pounds just went up from $3.50 to $4.99 in one felt swoop, all within about two weeks. The past two storms were pretty brutal on food stocks and supplies. Shopping at whole foods in Boston, I usually get in there an hour or two from opening 9-10 am, when the breads and baked goods come out the oven. After that, the store is MOBBED before a storm... Overall prices are up anywhere from 10-15% over the past few months.
