Call You & Yours: Are you worried about the cost of the food shop?
The invasion of Ukraine has impacted wheat prices, which increased by a third in a matter of days. Food brands say they'll have to pass the cost on to consumers.
Today on Call You & Yours we want to know - are you worried about the cost of the food shop?
Ukraine is a big exporter of wheat, and the invasion has impacted wholesale wheat prices. Prices rose by more than a third recently. Brands such as Hovis, Greggs and Dominoes have said they'll need to pass these increased costs on to customers.
The National Farmers' Union has warned that some crops will become too expensive to plant, in part because of rising fertiliser costs.

Are there foods you'll stop buying?
