The state of Pennsylvania had the highest increase in grocery prices over the last year, according to a report from Consumer Affairs.
Overall, grocery prices in the U.S. have gone up 5.3% year-over-year, but grocery inflation has varied from state to state.
Consumer Affairs, a customer review and consumer news platform, partnered with market intelligence provider Datasembly and looked at grocery price data in 15 categories, covering 150,000 stores in all 50 states and in Washington D.C.
According to the data, the commonwealth has experienced the biggest hike in grocery prices, seeing an 8.2% increase in 2023 alone. Vermont (7%), Maryland (7%), West Virginia (6.9%) and New Jersey (6.8%) round out the top five.
Colorado had the lowest price hike (2.9%) followed by Arizona (3.3%), North Carolina (3.5%), Michigan (3.5%) and Virginia (3.6%).

Pennsylvania voted for this! Welcome to bidenomics yinz jagoffs....
That may be, but my new stove won’t put off so much carbon.
They’re probably lying about NYC and California.
These numbers are made up. My grocery bill has gone up WAY more than 8%.
Yeah living here in PA that info sounds right to me.
I could wish that grocery prices only went up 3.3% over the past year here in Arizona. Plenty of items are up 40% or more.
Too bad they pick and choose foods to report. Cheapo Great Value brand bread is up 50% as are many regularly purchased foods. Eggs have come down but how about when they were 3 times more?
So has ours. Waaaaaay up! But they get by with these lies by only showing a certain few products.
Exactly. Total BS.
In Fall of 2020, when everything was still RIGHT in America, I decided I was going to challenge myself to cut our monthly grocery bill in HALF - just to see if I could do it.
So, for a few months there, I did!
Then came the STEAL, and even using all the tricks I employed to lower said grocery bill, I was right back up to where I was just a few months prior!
Gee. I wonder what happened in January 2021 to change things? *SPIT*
I can’t even hear or see Pennsylvanian;w name without thinking of who they chose for Senator.

Gawd…” Pennsylvania’s ”.
How can spell check highlight a word spelled correctly and ignore an obvious mistake like that?
I paid $2.77 for coffee creamer, now it's $3.77.
I paid $2.50 for a bag of Fritos, now it's $4.48.
I paid $5.32 for a tub of butter, now it's $6.28.
I could go on and on. I DO keep track of these things, better than fedgov, obviously...
Biden and Shapiro absolutely SUCK.
8.2%? Sorry, the price increases I’ve seen are much higher than this.

The 2020 election was blatantly stolen.
PDJT was up by 700,000 actual votes, when the polls closed.
The Secretary of State illegally and unConstitutionally changed voting laws days before the election and Xiao Bi Dung, magically, overcame insurmountable odds to heroically pull the election out of his a$$ with hundreds of thousands of fraudulent mail in ballots.
