This is another way for the US government to fudge the inflation numbers to help Joe Biden in the middle of a presidential election.
The overwhelming majority of Americans consume coffee every day. According to Drive Research, 73% of Americans drink coffee every day.

Coffee prices are exploding which explains why the Biden Regime doesn’t want it factored into the inflation data in the middle of a presidential election.
Inflation is on the rise again this year thanks to Joe Biden’s tax-and-spend policies.
Consumer prices rose 0.4% in February – less energy and food prices. Grocery prices are up 30+%. Gas prices are soaring.
“Since September 2023, coffee prices are up a MASSIVE 78%.” the Kobeissi Letter, a blog on capital markets said.
