The price of food and other basic commodities will soon rise in many places around the world. What are some commodities that are produced domestically or will remain inexpensive where you live? What do you expect will become more expensive? Please include your country of origin or region of the world in your reply.

There is only relatively expensive.
Literally everything has gone up with every excuse possible.
Covid, some ship that blocked the Suez canal?!, war in ukraine, not enough rain, too much rain.
Prices never go down after.
