My grocer explained that during the shortage a few years back price climbed from $0.39 to $3.00 per pound. When crisis was over people were still buying but, why lower the price? Yes, it's down to about $1.79 but not where it should be. >Ivan Vegvary And most store bought tomatoes taste about as good as motor oil.
