   You don't need fresh bread to make toast. Discounted day-old is fine.   
      
   Food cost crept up pre-pandemic price spikes, too, often disguised by   
   marketing and packaging. Art probably remembers, and will forever   
   resent, that frozen waffles went from a box of a dozen to a box of ten.   
      
   Just cuz I like to check my stuff, I see a link for "Eggo Strawberry   
   Frozen Waffles, 12.3 oz, 12 Count (Frozen)" goes to a 10-count box.
