Falling food prices

The U.S. is on track this year to post the longest stretch of falling food prices in more than 50 years, a streak that is cheering U.S. shoppers at the checkout line but putting a financial strain on farmers, grocery stores and restaurants.
(from the Wall Street Journal)

Food is so cheap nowadays
that I can eat hearty always.
The cafes may scream
and farmers vent steam;
at home I eat steak lyonnaise.
