Soon they will be suggesting fasting as a great strategy to mitigate food inflation. Once they learn of the potential health benefits of fasting the CDC will roll out a weekly 48 hour fast recommendation. Imagine the savings when you only eat 5 out of 7 days.

You jest, but why not take advantage of crazy food prices to adopt some healthy habits?

Me jest? Never.

Don't get me wrong, when I was typing my jesting response I was thinking it wouldn't be half bad if a lot of Americans ate a bit less.

Ahh! fasting, sure! As an Indian, I can say this is the best of best strategy. Due to my religious faith, I can fast every day. In every month, we have every day reserved for different dieties across the week.

Also, I can now understand that this may well be the one reason why India is relatively less costly for serving one plate of food.
