The price of food and other basic commodities will soon rise in many places around the world. What are some commodities that are produced domestically or will remain inexpensive where you live? What do you expect will become more expensive? Please include your country of origin or region of the world in your reply.

Everything becomes more expensive once a market for it is created. Meanwhile local foods like murnong and kangaroo apples are free in Australia.
