> Because to me, it seems impossible to not notice the inflation in food prices over the past year. It hasn't really changed my life, but it's very noticable that prices are going up.

I earn significantly less than a FAANG employee, and I agree with GP. From groceries alone, I'd never have known we had inflation. The only increase in prices that I did notice on my own is that eating out has gotten more expensive. And that's because many meals I would have for under $10 have magically hit $10+ - a notable boundary point, and the price point where I start thinking twice about "convenience" lunches.
