Pasta lovers must brace to pay even higher prices for their favorite dish, as drought in Canada and bad weather in Europe damages crops of durum wheat and reduces supplies available to flour millers and food companies.

      This is a Canadian instance, so the concern is rising prices in Canada.

      900g of spaghetti is $3.75 (US$2.77) at the closest major grocery store to me

        Last i bought was $1.71 CAD / kg
        (made in Canada www.italpasta.com )

        @anotherlemmyuser 's is $1.06 us$ / 750g so … $1.41 us$ / kg … , so … $1.90 CAD / kg

        The price has I’ve got in Canada, is about 10% lower than that one in Malaysia.
