Real food with a normal shelf life costs considerably more than processed foods preserved with chemicals. But I consider it an investment in our health and in the environment. As we demand more of these products, prices will come down.

YEs, as a result I am starting to see more organic foods in places like Harris Teeter. I am also looking to eat more unprocessed natural food. Demand will fuel supply....
AND - Many of the items now being sold at HT are still cheaper at Whole Foods. It might be my imagination, but I definitely noticed that when Trader Joes's came to town, some of Whole Foods' prices became more competitive.
For a start, the box of arugula is $2.99 (I think). Even the milk is very competitively priced. And some of the cheeses are cheaper - and fresher - than what you find at HT.

Hmm, missed that in economics class. I thought increased demand led to higher prices, increased supply led to cheaper.
I hope it's true...That will be just a 2 minute drive for me, instead of 20 when I drive all the way to wade ave. I do all my shopping at Wholefoods, all organic, which is why I am broke but very healthy! I don't buy food from their salad or hot bar since they tend to be very expensive. So I buy the raw materials and cook the food myself. I never buy the organic products/produce at Harris Teeter, they are way more expensive than Wholefoods.
