You might not know what it means, so let me enlighten you. Sandwich inflation, that's what sandflation means and I've just been subjected to it in the most brutal and unsatisfying way.
I was out doing stuff and with a heavy day of work at home ahead of me decided to grab a toasted sandwich and coffee at the mall instead of making it myself at home. A bit of a treat? Yeah maybe, it's always nice to have someone else do the cooking now and then.
I ordered and it arrived soon after.
The coffee was ok, just ok, and the sandwich? Let's just call it suboptimal. I don't eat a lot bread or carbs usually so was sort of looking forward to the roasted chicken, cheese, avocado and sundried tomato toasted sandwich but it let me down in a major way.
Fucken terrible.
Furthermore, the fucken terrible-toasted-sandwich-debacle cost me $24.85 (AUD) which is just under $18USD. That's a lot I reckon.
Australia is the highest taxed country in the world and the government is doing a really good job at making the cost of living skyrocket. You'll not understand unless you live here, but the Albanese Labour Government are bending Australians over and fucking them up the ass. Yep, that's the professional terminology for what they're doing.
Mother fucken cunts.
Anyway, inflation rises and wages and salaries don't keep up and it's all fucked when a person can't buy a single toasted sandwich and small coffee for a reasonable price.
If you live in a first-world country I'd like to hear about how things are in your country. Feel free to comment if you want to.
(No, the image is not the sandwich I refer to in this post, it was one I had a while back and it was legit).
