When you ask these people why thair product is so expensive they just reply that the mainstream food supply is too cheap. I noticed at the local supermart tha the organic section looks untuched by consumers. My feelings are that the grocer has to toss out a lot of expired items and pass on the cost to the real customers.

They should tell this to adequately fed villagers in India whose parents and/or grandparents frequently went hungry.

At one supermarket I shop at that has an organic produce section: organically grown nectarines - 3.99 a pound .

organic supermarket = supermarkup
