Some of the food inflation is tied to the increase in fuel to grow and transport the food though.

I remember hearing a comment from an economist, Jeffrey Rubin I think, about peak oil. He said that local grown food would start to re-emerge and the cost of transporting food would make it uncompetitive. I think the tipping point is $140 oil for that scenario. Though I think he also called for abobe $200 oil at some point. So take his analysis with a grain of salt.
