Food prices need to rise

Listen to the radio today or pick up a newspaper and you'll find headlines moaning about the rising cost of food (or as they prefer to say the 'soaring' cost of food). When are people going to realise that food has been unrealistically cheap for too long?

I've just logged onto the website of one of the big four supermarkets and seen a 300g pack of bacon retailing for 96p and a 2kg beef roasting joint for £4.78.

Who on earth is going to make any money at those kind of prices and what on earth is the quality going to be like?
