The cost of electricity is up 40%, which makes evaporation more expensive. It also makes running grocery stores more expensive. The costs of labor and transportation have risen 30% and 40% respectively, and the average price of milk rose from $2.85 to $4.20 per gallon. So it might cost more than twice as much to put a can of evaporated milk on the shelf.
