for other commenters -- these aren't just LA/Cali prices, they're west coast prices. these are only slightly above the prices here in Portland, OR, even at Albertson's. last time i got groceries, the bill was $100 ish for about 10 items.

$4.69 for basic dried basil is absolutely insane for the "cheap" price point. You can buy it for a quid here.

I’ve never been so glad to live in the Midwest. Our groceries are way more expensive than they used to be, but they’re not THAT expensive
