- For households earning less than $50,000, 82% feel groceries are "not affordable," with only 16% believing they are affordable. Enten noted this consensus is rare for any demographic group to reach.
- Trump's war in Iran has disrupted the Strait of Hormuz, driving up food and gas prices; 66% of Americans now say groceries are "unaffordable," according to polling data.
