It's called inflation, when I eat that stuff my stomach inflates because of the gas it causes. Can't find Beano around here at all. Gotta order it if I want to eat beans.

That's right, baked beans are over rated anyway, just one of those things we're use to eating

I'm lucky. I get my beans (not Heinz) from Nookies Delights.

Here is a snip from the pricelist:

HEINZ BAKED BEANS                                                85 BAHT   6 PACK 480 BAHT

HP BAKED BEANS                                                      48 BAHT   CASE OF 24….1000 BAHT
BRANSTON BAKED BEANS(NOW RINGPULL)         54 BAHT   OR 4 FOR 210 BAHT                                                                                              CASE OF 24....1150 BAHT
BONNERS BAKED BEANS                                          45 BAHT   OR CASE FOR 960 BAHT

I'm sure i could get that also in a Pattaya expat shop, they often do deals but some food just isn't worth it, like beans

It's not simply inflation. It's extremely bad for imported products.

At BigC they have some French Casino products for which some prices have simply exploded.

Cheese is particularly bad. Some Brie cost 179 until recently, now 304.

Same for cheese spread. Was about 119 before Covid, last prices were about 140 now 322.

125 gr:

Mainland, brand of cheese, no where,  in  Tesco, big C or Makro recently. Seems like not many customers in the stores at present.  

 

Not brought beans for a good while now, i look at like this: am i really going to enjoy these beans knowing i am paying over the odds for them? Too bitter to swallow.

Problems and whinging resolved.

????

went to a local cafe which brews it own beer today, middle of nowhere in Samut Prakan surrounded by water, fields and not much more. 250 baht for half a pint, mind you it was very good IPA at 8%, but at 12.50 quid a pint wont be back for a while.

That is the brand I buy and it does become scarce on occasion, but I always manage to find it somewhere!!

seems someone screwed up the labeling, should say "PROMOTION! 179  now 304" as you at times see in supermarkets!

Not expensive in Pattaya. Something like 279 baht for a 500 gram pack.

I notice Siamburi's seem to be pushing their overpriced pre-cooked ready meals. They also sell stuff in there that can be bought cheaper in Villamarket and Makro.
