The one-and-only Len Penzo joins us to share finding from his 2014 school lunch cost survey. Every year Len compares the prices of popular sack lunch items. We review everything from the price of tomatoes to peanut butter and bread. This is Len's sixth year for the study and this year he has some surprising results.
He'll also share tips about how to lower the cost of a school lunch.
No kids headed to school this fall? Don't worry, we tackle inflation in general (and answer a listener concern about how the government calculates inflation).
