Please note that there was no question mark at the end of my sentence. Hence, my statement was rhetorical. Yes, I fully understand math. What I don't understand is how that is reconciled with your post that plainly states:

Food price increases barely register on the inflation scale. Consider that less than 4% of disposable income is spent on groceries.

I would also note that your referenced link is only for full data through 2006. I would further suggest that the largest commodities moves have happened in full year 2007, as noted by my 2007 link to USDA price averages of milk, through 2007.

Rudimentary understanding of inflation anyone?

You are still funny though.
