Small farmer markets are a teeny tiny slice of the food supply utilized by an even smaller slice of the food market.
You don't like the facts, so you disregard the source.
The consumers are not pushing back. It is the fast food industry ensuring there is a price point for everyone, and people are following suit for that same bite of the pie of the lower income brackets.
In fact, McDonalds is switching its breakfast equipment to churn breakfast food out faster now with less labor needed, which will add to the unemployment line.
But keep telling me you do not know about the food industry, without telling me you do not know about the food industry...
