Still an under-reaction. The next years will be absolutely brutal. Supply chain disprutions due to blockages, destroyed refineries, heat waves already disrupting crop yields and a looming, ungodly (h)el(l) nino picking up steam? Buckle up.

We may not experience extreme events like an AMOC collapse, but widespread hunger is definitely in range of our current lifetimes. Heat deaths already are will get worse.
Was 2018 a low year? That might be about the time I remember bread going up from 35p to 45p a loaf in a fairly short timeframe but it dropped a bit after a while. Its 55p now but some of that might just be general inflation and I don't buy bread as much anymore.
Please don't dox yourself, but where are you finding 55p loaves? It's almost double that where I am (South West England).
The cheapest loaf in Aldi. I wonder if its better or worse for you than the more expensive ones. Cheapest ingredients but also less stuff added to it to change the texture of it.
I have mostly stopped eating supermarket bread though. It probably isn't very good for you and its cheaper to eat oats.
So now my lunches are oats I grind up at home to a coarse flour, dried fruit/nuts and just add some water. Although lately at work I use the free milk in the fridge because its cold.
Also Russia is having a massive fuel crisis, so I doubt they will be able to harvest even close to what they used to.
