The cost of food continues to put pressure on family budgets. Since the beginning of the year, prices have been rising and, if the trend continues, the basic food basket should reach a new record this week.
Among the products that have increased the most are essential goods such as legumes and the fish. Also fresh products, such as fruits and the legumeshave been affected, largely because of the weather conditions and of production costs.
Factors such as increase in fuel prices end up being reflected in the final amount paid by consumers.
At a time when the food basket price is around 254 eurosfor many families filling the shopping cart continues to be an increasing challenge.
