Above is a blog post from last month, which was done on the day Unilever and Tesco had a supposed war of retailer versus supplier which spilled over onto the social media and news. The latest one to join the fray is now Walkers Crisps and Birds Eye.
Last month we held a poll asking if folks thought food manufacturers were profiteering or had justified increases which went 68% to 32% in favour of profiteering.
Below is the latest data as of today showing where main supermarkets are as an average price over the past year on three main products. Marmite which stole the headlines last time, and the 2 new ones which may be in the news tomorrow Smokey bacon crisps from walkers and Birds eye fish fingers.
