Since the last increase - I rarely buy bread, I usually make a lil bake or bread or go by my Mother for some!
Doubles though is hard to give up though I have cut down considerably. I think we should invest in cultivating our own wheat! Or look into other methods of making flour - corn, cassava, etc.
People cannot say ah go bake cause its easier said than done for some. |

Ah agree with Lez, less buying more baking and ah doh even like homemade bread. But the price going up again, ah will have to eat it.
I really think we need fresh faces running the country. A shake up might help. |

I am afraid we locals just have to be more resourceful. My mother buys bread once in a blue moon. She usually buys all the ingredients and makes enough bread to last about two weeks. She also has a kitchen garden where she grows all sorts of common fruits, vegetables and seasonings. If people buy everything they need at the supermarket they will be placing themselves in unnecessary expense. Not everyone has the time to do their own baking or tend to their own kitchen garden. However, considering how insane food prices are nowadays I suggest they at least try to make the time. |

every one has to make the decision about what is important to them and what they want to spend money on. i for one will be buying less bread and baking more. |

Well meh dear.As me mother say de world go still have to go round.
I personally think that prices for food stuff ridiculously high now.it cheaper to buy clothes than food these days.
I love flour but now I catch myself eating more provisions and I does bake bread rather than buy.The upside of baking your own bread is tha you know it not full of hot air. |
