A new poll confirms what you probably already know -- Americans are stressed out over grocery prices.
The Associated Press-NORC Center poll of more than 14-hundred adults found about half consider the cost of groceries a "major" source of stress.
Only 14-percent say it's not a source of stress.
"The price was high to begin with and it's staying high, especially on eggs and butter," says Ed, who was getting groceries from the Mariano's near Randolph along the lakefront.
"Meat is coming close, but pork is very reasonable."
64% of the lowest-income Americans — those who have a household income of less than $30,000 a year — say the cost of groceries is a "major" stressor.
That's compared with about 4 in 10 Americans who have a household income of $100,000 or more.
High grocery bills have Terry skipping some name brands.
"In things like laundry detergent and toilet paper, I buy the more generic brands," Terry says.
