I think that food in general is overpriced - but that's also because of shortages. Organic food often drives people away with a high sticker price because of budgets- but I believe that the people who are buying organic food could argue that by feeding themselves food not treated with chemicals that maybe they see their doctors less, they feel better, and have less anxiety perhaps than those who don't pay attention to the labels and may have more health problems. I can see both sides of the expense fence here-- but I do think in the long run, farmer's markets and organic foods would be worth the money in the long run.
