High demand for workout gear and health-conscious vegetarian options are now being used to calculate the change in the cost of living in the UK.
Items such as tinned beans, boosted by a rise in plant-based diets, have also been added to the basket of goods used to measure prices.
The review by the Office for National Statistics also saw pet collars added.
But men's suits and doughnuts are out as homeworking shifted how we dress and snack during Covid lockdowns.
