## Resource

Chicken thighs are skyrocketing in price, up 8.2% in just one month—outpacing beef and coffee—and a staggering 13.6% year-over-year, turning grocery bills into a battleground. While Canada’s overall inflation cooled thanks to cheaper gas, shoppers are feeling the heat at the poultry section. Driven by beef’s rising cost, consumers are trading up to chicken—but with limited supply, demand is pushing prices higher. Breast prices dipped slightly, but drumsticks and thighs are climbing, creating ripple effects across the industry. Experts hint at possible stabilization, but global fuel volatility keeps the future uncertain. For now, chicken thighs are holding strong—and your wallet might not be ready.
