Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
Inevitable I suppose - the hot weather has led directly to a lower than normal wheat harvest. Combine this with rising fuel costs and the price of bread is set to rise in the UK. It is not a huge increase - just 3 or 4 pence per loaf.
The National Farmers Union has warned for several weeks that the shortages of crops, wheat especially wilted in the extreme July heat, would result in higher prices for consumers. BBC reports that the UK's two largest millers - Rank Hovis, which owns eight mills and ADM Milling, which has nine, are both raising the price of flour. This is likely to hit the smaller craft baker more than the own-label ranges pushed out by the supermarkets.
As a side note - did you know that there is a Flour Advisory Bureau in the UK? Me neither. But the site has recipes, conversion charts, sandwich ideas etc etc.
