No, I think it is just, as I explained, the cynicism that knows
whatever chance there is to raise prices, they will take it. Don't
you notice that where you live? Though I have to admit I was not
entirely clear why the price of one cauliflower last winter rose to
something like $5.99! Because there is just me I can not buy but I
feel for a woman trying to feed her kids a healthy veggie diet when
that happens!
