It would be nice to see the price of food drop.
From 1970 until 2010 the price of food dropped 30% relative to the earning power of the average American. That's a pretty big number.
Not entirely true if you use a CPI unencumbered by a series of 'enhancements' that suppress inflation.

Notice the Food Share of Disposable Income goes from 13 3/4%
down to 9 1/2%, which is a 30% drop.
