The biggest jump will be the price of vegetables
Eating healthy is going to cost more in 2019.
According to researchers at the University of Guelph and Dalhousie University, food prices are expected to rise between 1.5% and 3.5% and the price of vegetables will jump 6%.
It works out to an extra $400 a year for the average family.
Researchers say lettuce and tomatoes will see the biggest increase.
On the other hand, the price of meat and seafood will fall.
