Prices at the grocery store won't be going down any time soon.
There's the cost of fuel, a weak dollar, and then there's the price of corn, which grocery manufacturer Scott Saber says is going to push our food bills skyward.
"Anything we eat that is either made from corn or that has been fed corn is going to increase dramatically in price over the next few years," he said.
