Fait à noter, une forte proportion des personnes sondées dans [l']étude partagent la conviction que les chaînes d'alimentation profitent indûment de l'inflation pour augmenter leurs prix et accroître leurs bénéfices – un phénomène appelé en anglais «greedflation», qu'on pourrait traduire en français par «cupidiflation» .
