Some restaurants adding 'inflation fees' to bills amid rising food costs
We have all felt the sting of inflation, and businesses and restaurants are constantly re-evaluating prices and practices to stay afloat. One metro Detroit breakfast spot, The Fly Trapp in Ferndale, was forced to add an inflation fee to each check. Genevieve Christopher started working at The Fly Trapp one month before COVID-19 closed them down. But they weathered the storm, switched owners, and now they're surviving. However, rising food costs are threatening to put them in the red. "I mean eggs. We are heavily, heavily egg-based because we’re breakfast. Eggs are extremely expensive. Eggs, sugar, bread are super, super expensive, so we have to offset the cost somehow," Christopher said. So, the restaurant decided to add an inflation fee. It's a 4% charge tacked on to each bill.
