Greg asks "In other words, if I'm selling to a health food store or
vegetable stand that will be putting a $3.89 retail price on the product,
what should I charge them?"

"Traditional" wholesale food prices are 70%-75% of retail.  This would
translate into $2.70-$2.90 for a wholesale price.  However, seasonal and
specialty items have higher margins.  I know of one instance where a buyer
can purchase several thousand Ross Round sections at $1.60-$1.70, but most
of the prices I know of are $2.00-$2.25.
