Show Notes

Rogers Healy discusses how inflation is hitting the average American's wallet, particularly with rising grocery costs, which are up over 25% in the past 5 years. He believes this is not just a price problem, but also an income issue, as wage growth lags behind inflation. As a result, Healy sees consumers pivoting to more affordable options, such as buying in bulk and opting for store-brand or generic products. He also expects to see increased demand for healthier and more sustainable food options, citing companies like PepsiCo (PEP) and its new lines of no synthetic dye and protein Doritos.
