Other items such as eggs are up 43% compared to a year ago, while butter and margarine is up 34%. 

In fact, prices have increased so much for that for the first-time ever it will be cheaper to dine out for Thanksgiving, as Wells Fargo food and agribusiness analyst Brad Rubin calculated. 

Back in the early days of the Biden administration, they tried to preempt inflation concerns by assuring the American public that the price of a Fourth of July cookout had declined an entire sixteen cents in 2021 from the year before in a widely-mocked tweet. 

Planning a cookout this year? Ketchup on the news. According to the Farm Bureau, the cost of a 4th of July BBQ is down from last year. It’s a fact you must-hear(d). Hot dog, the Biden economic plan is working. And that’s something we can all relish. pic.twitter.com/7h9qLauIbC

This year, the price of a Fourth of July cookout jumped $10, enough to offset 2021's savings nearly 63 times over.
