    Yay, they’re accelerating slightly less at screwing us all over.

    Although it should be noted that supermarkets probably aren’t taking the lion’s share. Ever since Tesco started diversifying through the supply chain, most of the profits have been squirrelled away in the middle - farmers aren’t paid very much for their supply, meanwhile public facing stores pay over the odds for their products, but the manufacturers make mint (while substituting eg horse meat). And all the profits are paid for by the consumer.
