The Department of Agriculture estimates that US food prices rose more than 23% from 2020 to 2024 and outpaced overall inflation in 2025. Extreme weather, disease, and rising energy costs are straining producers, while new tariffs are adding more pressure to supply chains. This has led to rising costs for both everyday goods, like eggs and chocolate, as well as niche foods experiencing a surging demand, like yuzu and oxtail. Restaurants and consumers are feeling the impact. We explain why 15 foods are so expensive right now.
