Wish­bone have put up the prices of most of its food by $1, so now you will pay $7.50 for their cran­ber­ry, chick­en and brie sand­wich (luck­i­ly, next door to my local Wish­bone is the Con­corde Cafe where I can get a crusty baguette filled with sala­mi and cheese, and a mys­ti­cal half olive for a bar­gain $3.50). They say that it is the ris­ing cost of petrol that has forced them into it. We say that maybe if they inves­ti­gat­ed ways to reduce the ridicu­lous amount of plas­tic that their food comes in, the cost of petrol would­n’t affect them quite as much.

PS: Their black plas­tic box­es are #5, which can’t be col­lect­ed, but you can take them in to Com­mon­sense Organ­ics who will recy­cle them for you. If you’re that ded­i­cat­ed. We think that Wish­bone should take them back too.
