In this opinion piece the writer questions Herbert Stein's forecast that retail food prices will end 1973 near 1972 levels and argues prices will remain high as grain sales to the Soviet Union and rising costs push costs higher. The column warns that food affordability may not return soon and shelves reflect ongoing price pressures.
