For bacon-lovers, things are only getting worse.
According to the June consumer price index report from Canada, the price of bacon increased by 5.8% month-over-month, and 26.8% year-over-year.
Last month, the price of bacon surged by 9.3% month-over-month.

Bacon prices have been significantly increasing because of supply issues. In June, there was a breakout of a pig virus which led to the killing of millions of baby pigs.
Overall, inflation is heating up. Over the last month, the Producer Price Index rose 0.4%.
