Food prices does not mean much when houses go for a few hundred thousand more within a couple years, or daycare prices increase from $15k/year to $16k to $17k or health insurance deductibles go from $3k to $5k to $7k.

For a young family that is interested in buying a house, food/gas does not even register.
