Key Points

  • As shoppers await price cuts, retailers like Home Depot say their prices have stabilized and some national consumer brands have paused price increases or announced more modest ones.
  • Yet some industry watchers predict deflation for food at home later this year.
  • Falling prices could bring new challenges for retailers, such as pressure to drive more volume or look for ways to cover fixed costs, such as higher employee wages.

    They’re like beans.

    While having them home cooked is better, try some prepackaged Indian or Middle Eastern foods that might have them from a local health food store. Regular grocery stores might have them in some canned soups.

    I’m personally not a fan of lentils, I find them somewhat dry/mealy in consistency, but I’m not going to turn down a good dish with them in it.

      I honestly have never had beans. The only vegetable I’m good with is hummus, but I’m super curious about vegan/vegetarian proteins. I won’t start with lentils, though. Sounds unpleasant for someone with texture issues. Thank you.
