In 2012 a single package of name brand instant ramen was 25 cents exactly, no tax on food items in my state, I literally bought one with a quarter from my car's coin tray once for a weird craving.
As of this year, that same single packet of ramen is now 50 cents.
100% inflation over 13ish years. For an item made by an assembly line out of dirt cheap components.
The commodity price of wheat has more price movement than I expected, but roughly has only gone up by 20% in the same time frame.
