Food prices in Trinidad and Tobago

[daring dragoon]

Worries over surging global food costs are easing as prices of everything from cooking oils to wheat and corn tumble to the lowest levels in months on increasing physical supplies and as investors reduce their bullish bets on futures markets.

Palm oil, the world’s most consumed edible oil, has plunged more than 40% from a record close in April to the weakest level in a year, while wheat has slumped over 35% from an all-time closing high in March, and corn has dropped about 30% from its peak this year.

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February choked supplies of grains and sunflower oil from the Black Sea, worsening existing shortages caused by extreme weather and supply-chain chaos. This sparked fears of a global food crisis, which would hit consumers in poorer nations particularly hard. Prices are now back to levels before the invasion.

Good news with the falling prices. However from what has been published, the shipments have been contracted with the higher prices. The government may be in a position to subsidize nfm, it will be interesting to see what the private producers do. My feeling is not a single cent reduction in the prices for a few months still.

Yeh boy dd,

Plenty 40 year olds with pot belly and dark eyes.

Level teeny boppers too on the facebook and IG live hashtagging, boomeranging and @-ing.

Chants of “we outside” can be heard.

My rum cork days done since the great era of Pier 1, Beer Garden and $5 beastly cold rum shop beers in Curepe.

Dem places like Zen and Space n sheit turn me off. The younger folks kill the scene.

Timelapse go tell yuh the scene back in the day, me and he i sure met up and knock back a few.

[88sins]

Here's a fun tidbit of information.


Business people DON'T lime on the avenue.
You will find them all over the place, in all kinda out of the way small hidden establishments, in the east, west, central, north and south. But NEVER on the avenue. Even people who own & operate bars on the avenue don't lime on the avenue.

He who knows knows

Royal Castle 1 piece and fries went from $20 to $22.00

A little less than TWO WEEKS LATER it is now $24.95.

They could keep it.

If you buying a one piece and complaining , there seems to be deeper issues involved here

Maybe if you do not buy the sky will fall .

And this is why we will never get anywhere in this country. Maybe, I could only afford a one piece. Unlike you, I was not born with a gold spoon in my mouth.

I should have made this post in the "sufferer's thread".

[pugboy]

will the sky fall if the chinese raise them box of noodles and couple lil chopped pieces?

[paid_influencer]

I sometimes line up to buy food, look up at the menu, recognize nothing is priced where I feel comfortable, and I simply walk out. No bawl up, no dramatics, just walk out. People sometimes look at me strange when I walk out. I have rarely seen others do the same.

so bluefete, I support you for walking out. Nothing wrong in that and no shame in that.

chinese guaranteed to get a few racial comments, maybe death threats.

The daroo part ent?If dais the case, we really could lime

Oye, maxipad, a new Massy Stores opening in San Juan soon.

You and the rest of your Guyanese leechers and misfits could go and dress up to take selfies there.

In TnT we have a name for your kinda people well many names, but one is "never-see-come-see" Ask a trini acquaintance to define it for you.

Avenue was pumping weekend.

Rel food selling

Anyway, for the Trinis posting here, A lotta small/medium food outlets closing up shop. They gotta raise prices too high to continue making any kinda sustainable profit.

Thank you. Sometimes it is better to walk away when prices do not fit your pocket instead of trying to show off for the neighbour.

Diskomart? I thought so myself, but then someone said it'll be on the other side of highway, In front of Peakes. We'll know in a few days.

Maxipad excited. He can't wait to send pix back to Guyana posing in front of a new Massy.

Okay, cool. Thanks for the update. But if they are across the highway, what do they know that we don't? They opened a branch at Brentwood that seems to be a bit in the bush. BUT Massy fans will find it.

ROFL @ Maxipad though.

[daring dragoon]

built is an they will come. you aint see by brentwood they cutting a road to come back out onto the hiway among other improvements. soon movie town central will reopen in brentwood. was a deal between d grocery and the chinese man just like in guyana.

I thought that was long time logic.

But I was just passing up the highway so I did not see the road they are cutting. Not surprised though. Jobs hadda jobs.

[Gixxerrider]

@DOGG its xtra foods and starbucks possibly KFC as well infront by peakes

[K74T]

It's Diskomart going full Massy

Massy isn't spending their money to build roads that others would have to.

They treat the MoW like their personal lapdog.

Perks of being on control of government for 50+ years.

[MaxPower]

is how dogg still toting over Massy lol

Does know the snackette shoppers who never set foot in a air condition grocery

[shake d livin wake d dead]

Allyuh post the $70 baigan from massy nah

[Kickstart]

People shop at Massy for comfort, why shop in POS market and deal with the dirty environment and rude people there

[paid_influencer]

^pick-pockets too. Leave the wallet at home if you have to go down certain streets. And stress for parking too

all the people jealous of Massy customers... do you have a reusable bag? If you have one, just walk in. It is open to everyone.

[pugboy]

that massy price have to be an error, or I suspect the middleman doing a number on them
those middlemen are real snakes
