This will happen as soon as the majority of their costumers will start to look and care about prices.

If Bagel Nosh goes back to 1.99 for scrambled eggs from the $4.25 they raised it to when eggs went to $7 a dozen I’ll eat my hat.

Look at the prices of flour, chocolate, and other staple bakery ingredients over the last 2 years.

Look at the prices

Not sure where you want me to look or what I should be looking at?
Is it fair to use the last 2 years as a baseline (perhaps for temporary price hikes, but we are seeing how "temporary" those are...)?

A blind google gave me numbers from FRED:

prices of flour

Seems to be about 0.5-55 similar to where it was from mid 2008-mid 2017

On the other hand,

Look at the prices of chocolate

Chocolate and Confectionery Manufacturing Index seems to show it steadily increasing from 100 to 115 from Jan 2012 to Sept 2020, then drop to 105 by Dec 2020, then steadily rise to 127 by Mar 2023.

Grocery is different, because it's set up for dynamic pricing based on fluctuating market conditions. They also operate on razor-thin margins. For prepared foods, you definitely have to look at the last 2 years. Most of those business are small, cannot operate on dynamic pricing, and can't afford to be wiped out by fluctuations in material costs.
