Too much bread for bread and butter

Some (just a tad) good news this morning: after steadily increasing from about March of last year, overall prices stayed about the same over the month of April! How? Although food prices increased, inflation didn't rise much and gas prices increased about as much as they usually do every spring.

Of food costs, those of bread, butter and coffee rose dramatically. Atkins would be happy, Juan Valdez, not so much.
