It is Constitutional. It's clear as a bell historically also, since one of the motivations for dropping the Articles of Confederation for the Constitution was the inability to regulate interstate commerce. Shoe sales comes to mind here, because that was one of the particular problems they were faced with.

Of course. There's no denying that Congress has the power to regulate interstate commerce. But production and local sales are not interstate commerce.
