As the cost of food, including hot dogs, potato chips, and beer, continues to rise, American families will spend more for this year’s Memorial Day barbecue compared to last year, according to Yahoo Finance. Similarly, families will pay more for gas to travel to barbecues, with prices up 43.6 percent per gallon from last year.
Under the Biden Administration, the cost of food has risen 9.4 percent compared to the same month last year.
This analysis comes as sixty-five percent of working families’ paychecks simply can’t keep up with rising prices with 75 percent of Americans believing the country is headed down “the wrong track,” according to a recent poll by NBC News.
