That hasn’t been my experience. Something were cheaper (converting GBP to USD) but it was usually only ~10%. Other things were more expensive.

I was just window shopping in a few towns in the UK. Local stores and places like Sainsbury. Comparing staple items to Safeway and other US stores.

Prices may have change recently.

Sainsbury's is up to 2x the price for basic items (compared to Aldi, Lidl and Asda). Atomic Shrimp has interesting budget survival videos with 3 meals per day mostly from shopping value chain supermarkets, as well as direct comparisons between them.

Similar to Safeway in the US prices are much higher than budget grocery stores.

So, how much is the thread-starting 1kg of actual chicken breast for example?
