Food prices hold steady as meat and produce shift
U S retail prices of chickens and eggs eased a few cents while most food prices stayed level. Some meat cuts were advertised as specials amid slow consumption, and tight livestock prices pressured beef and sheep slaughtering in parts of the country. Wholesale food costs eased for a third week, and the Agriculture Department notes rising incomes have boosted per capita food budgets despite higher retail prices. Lettuce costs rose in many markets even as spring greens and canned goods remained plentiful for thrifty shoppers.
