Day 1 to DAY 366: FOODS NOT CHEAPER
Trump said he would bring prices down on Day One. When food costs did not drop last February (2025), I started tracking the price of three foods that most people buy: ground beef, bread, and coffee. Now, on Day 366, I found that each of those cost more than or the same as they did when Donald Trump took office.
So what did Trump focus on during his first year if not prices? Below I show my tracked prices in parallel with the actions that President Trump put his energy into. You can make up your own mind about how well things turned out.

The foods I tracked are:



Meijer brand Angus Ground Beef; 80% lean, 20% fat, small package
Meijer Split Top Enriched Bread White 22 oz.
Maxwell House Original Roast ground coffee, 27.5 oz can.
