Two proposed class-action lawsuits in the U.S. allege that four companies conspired to fix prices on frozen potato products over the past three years.

Consumers continue to struggle with grocery prices, but a significant number are spending money and going out to restaurants. That's one of the findings in a new report issued by Dalhousie University's Agri-Food Analytics Lab, which surveyed more than 3,000 Canadians.

A separate suit was filed Sunday on behalf of Alexander Govea, a consumer living in Virginia. That suit also names marketing group Potatoes USA and analytics firm Circana as part of its proposed class action.
