Do we know who is setting the price higher? Is it more like it’s 6% higher but so is everything else or more of the manufacturer selling to the storefronts at a higher cost thus forcing grocery stores to set the price higher by 6%?

Because it informs who we should be mad at

Manufacturers set minimum prices for their products. Generally, suggested retail price and minimum advertisable price.
