Food and Beverage: Switzerland the most expensive in Europe

The statistical office of the European Union has taken a survey of 440 comparable foods across Europe to create an index of food, beverage, and tobacco prices categorized by nation. According to purchasing power, their 2015 data concludes that Switzerland has Europe's most expensive food and drinks. They're followed closely by Norway, Denmark, and Iceland.
For fruit and vegetables, including potatoes, Switzerland is the most expensive country in the EU, then Denmark and Ireland.

Comparing prices with neighboring countries, the difference is less pronounced: Swiss food cost 3% more than in Germany and 9% higher than in Italy and France.

At the opposite end, Poland was the continent's cheapest country. They're at the bottom of the list with Romania, Albania, and Serbia. 
Elsewhere, the United Kingdom was the most most expensive country in the union for tobacco.

In all four categories (food, non-alcoholic beverages, alcoholic beverages and tobacco) one country was cheapest: the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia.
