The prices of snacks have doubled if not tripled, mostly a good thing since I have no urge to pay those prices.

IMO snack prices are one of the biggest indicators that inflation is mostly corporate greed. Snack processing/packaging doesn't require much human labour and are easy and lightweight to transport, so they aren't as impacted by rising labour and transportation costs as other products, yet somehow the margins have increased by more than any other grocery item and have not come down since the pandemic ended.

I have not had my wasabi roasted seaweed since the pandemic started but just found a pac from before. *the bliss* Since purchase of middling-Korean brand I have since nom-nom'd 5 PACs, each half the former size.

Treat yourself right.
