I watching people beat up about the price of flour going up, and talking about how alternatives are too expensive and how they can't be used as a direct replacement. All valid points. But understand this.

If you never eat wheat flour again for the rest of your life, you will not die. You will probably live longer. Most of the things we eat that's made with wheat flour is very unhealthy. Bred, bake, roti, doubles, cake, pasta, cookies, etc., all unhealthy and probably the biggest contributors to obesity, diabetes, and other ailments. Flour is something you can live very healthy when you eating less of it.

Wait till they realize how tight Vladimir is with Xi, and the strangle hold they gonna put on the rest of the world.


A word to the wise
Potatoes can grow here, use less space, and yield faster than cassava or dasheen.

So what would happen to all the old stock flour bought by supermarkets? Will they be putting the increased prices on that even though they bought them before the price increase? Seems disingenuous to me.

Look at it this way
If they don’t, then they will not make enough money to restock at the new price when their existing stock is depleted, leading them to buy less and creating short term shortages at retail point of sale.

So yes, old stock will be sold at the new price.

Still disingenuous, you bought it old price, sell it at old markup price not new one.

it is the ripple effect that will affect us all, if you eat flour or not. jobs will be loss in all sectors because people cannot afford to feed their families. a family might stop paying for cable tv an internet in order to buy food and less money for flow and digicel means men who working there will lorse theit wuk.... follow!
it is not only flour that raise, everything double in price as you know so flour and rice will still be the cheapest.

[matr1x]

[DMan7]

[matr1x]

Will the ministers be paying a higher price?

[Mmoney607]

Jason,

Help me to understand the maths for the position the country is in and the amount of people that brayed nationwide for the long weekend.

Gas didn’t just increase?

Where are the people who are affected?

Where are their voices and cries??

Where are the people dying of starvation?

Help me to understand please Jason.
