>>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.
