That may be what the retailer gets, but not what the grower gets. I really don’t know. I just think that $1/lb in 1950 to $3/lb today would be a decline in price. Consider that a beginning teacher today, just out of school starts at around $26,000/yr. In 1959, it was $5,000/year. It’s called inflation.
