Recently rising food prices are putting both consumers and shopkeepers in a difficult situation. A shopkeeper, protesting by showing the price tag at the market, reacted to the situation by saying, "This is the current state at the market, friends; it doesn't even cover the driver's meal money."

The increase in food prices is affecting many sectors along with the rise in transportation and production costs. The tradespeople stated that both producers and consumers are suffering during this process and expressed that they are waiting for solutions from the authorities.

"THE DRIVER'S MEAL MONEY ISN'T EVEN COVERED"

In a video shared on social media, the market tradespeople stated that they are selling cauliflower for 3 TL per kilogram, reacting to the situation by saying, "This is the current situation, friends; the driver's meal money isn't even covered."

"WHO IS MAKING THIS MONEY?"

The video, which spread rapidly in a short time, caught the attention of many and reignited discussions about economic policies. Comments such as "If no one is making money, then who is?", "How does it become 30 TL in supermarkets?", "It's 30 TL per kilogram at the market. Who is making this money?", and "I am worried about the future" were made under the video.
