Not a surprise a chain restaurant raising their prices. I go to Chipolte once in a great while.

IMO, eating healthy food it's one of the best financial investments in life. You abuse with your body, and it's very probable that you will get a hefty medical bill sometime in your life, and hopefully you get back your health again. Anyway I have to agree that with that kind of speedy life in NYC it's rather difficult to think about cooking if you are single. Been there too, but I love cooking and I managed to get past this problem most of the times

Inflation is upon us big time. The only ones denying it are fools ore those in government.
It is caused by mismanagement of the banking system abetted by a no-nothing government.

Prices are soaring and the government and media are in denial.

"Gee where did that plane go?"

Yeh I did not read the article. I just took a guess.

True that's why I'm learning now to cool every week .
