Don't think the UK government can do much about it, the inflation is driven by USA rising interest rates which devalues the pound

Pretending the UK did not intentionally decide to leave the EU, among other choices it has made, did not impact food prices is what it is.

France and Germany are also experiencing food inflation in double digits, surely you can't just blame Brexit as the big factor

Assuming you took a look at the search result I provided, but in case you missed it - “The OECD said last week that the U.K. is lagging substantially behind other developed economies, performing second only to Russia among the world's major economies.”; which is saying a lot given Russia basically committed economic suicide.
