More evidence that there is no such thing as a "law" of supply and demand and no such thing as prices just sort of magically rising and falling all by themselves.
They make the choice to pass on the cost? Are you kidding me? Have you ever been on a small to medium sized family run farm? They are not making millions. In order to make a living, they HAVE to pass the cost on. If they are forced to pay minimum wage, then the price of food will rise. There is nothing about choice involved.
