>>its that realization that makes someone who can afford it pay $15 for a 10oz jar of organic honey and support the organic concept. To a lot of people, natural/local/organic is their attitude, lifestyle, and philosophy. I had a customer tell me a couple of weeks ago that he does not mind paying extra for my natural honey - I can't be organic in suburbia - because he feels processed foods are one of the root causes of the health problems. He said we spent some $1.3 trillion on health care (his actual terms was 'disease care'!) in the US last year and we are not very healthy.
