本文

A: Hey, got a moment?

B: Sure! What's up?

A: Did you hear about the news? Prices are going crazy!

B: No way! What's happening exactly?

A: It looks like food prices went wild. Rice doubled in cost, and things like coffee beans, chocolate, even onigiri rice balls... all skyrocketed!

B: Whoa, that's a big jump! Anything we can do about it?

A: Well, the government's trying to help with gasoline subsidies. But overall, prices of non-perishable food are up more than 8% and even the Consumer Price Index without fresh food is over 3%.

B: That's not great... I hope it gets better soon!

A: Yeah, me too. The ministry did mention that only branded rice prices were surveyed. There are some cheaper grains coming from government stockpiles, though.

B: That's something at least. Let's hope things calm down!

Japan&#039;s consumer inflation rose in June, as shoppers paid twice as much for rice compared to a year earlier.
        
                    
                  
The internal affairs ministry says the Consumer Price Index, excluding fresh food, rose 3.3 percent year-on-year.
        
                    
                  
The pace slowed for the first time in four months due to government subsidies on gasoline but still topped 3 percent.
        
                    
                  
Prices of food, excluding perishables, shot up more than 8 percent. Rice rose 100 percent.
        
                    
                  
The ministry notes that only prices of branded rice are included in the survey. That is not the case with lower-priced grain that was released from government stockpiles and sold to consumers.
        
                    
                  
Prices of several other food items rose by double digits. Coffee beans and chocolate jumped about 40 percent, onigiri rice balls, 19 percent.
