It would double in price most likely.
Produce is a fraction of the price of meat.

Meat gets a LOT more handling.

Sorry, but I can wash it myself, thanks!

When I eat more veggies, my grocery bill goes down.

Leeks have to be taken apart to wash them properly.
It's in the nature of the beast.

Easiest solution? Don't eat leeks.

I personally think they are worth the effort and they are expensive
enough as it is.
