Not that I am happy with rising food costs, but I think many don't think of what goes into getting to the supermarket shelf!
I don't have a huge issue with the fact things are going to cost more with the fuel/crop failures etc. The issue I have is the changing of the size in addition to the rising prices.

I agree though, I didn't realize 'gallon' was negotiable or any other 'standard' size of measure.
