As subject line says ...... I was shocked today when I went to a local
grocery store (chain) and looked at the price of ginger root! I wanted
to buy a pound or a bit more to make some of the candied ginger as
discussed in the recent thread on RFC, using Goomba's slow-cooker recipe.

Imagine my surprise today! I was in a local grocery store chain and
discovered ginger root had the price of $4.49/lb! OUCH!!!! That's even
more expensive than ground chuck ($3.19/lb)!!!! What gives ???
