The Price of a medium loaf of own-label wholemeal or White Bread rose by More Than 40%, the figures show. They now stand at 86p and 84p respectively.

The Price of fresh vegetables such as a whole cucumber or an Iceberg Lettuce has also gone up by More Than 50% in The Past 12 Months , partly due to.

Russia's invasion of Ukraine - One of The World 's biggest exporters of wheat and other grains - has also disrupted some supply chains.

Outbreaks of avian and swine flu have also affected supplies and mean the cost of eggs, bacon and ham has shot up too.
