Fresh Grocer


PICTURE FROM:(http://www.remingtongroup.com/NewsPics/Fres_Grocer_Progress_Plaza.jpg)
Today we visited the market to observed prices of the food to compare and contrast those prices to the Reading Terminal we visited previously. There we seen simple as cheese rang to a price of 99cent to 6.59$. We wanted to see the difference between the cheaper priced cheese and the more expensive cheese. What we seen was the cheaper cheese had more chemicals and was processed with other things than the more expensive cheese. But the more expensive cheese had more calcium then the cheaper cheese. At the farmers market cheese came from other courtiers such as France where tempering with food products with science is not allowed. This cheese was very expensive about 40 to 50 dollars more per .lb. In the market with eggs white eggs were less expensive than the brown eggs. Brown eggs are known to be healthier than white eggs. Just as in the farmers market the brown eggs were more expensive because of this reason. In the meat section there was honey ham for only 99cent; this tells us the animal most likely been chemically tempered with. Compared to simple pepperoni in the same section was 3$ cheaper. Walking farther in the same aisle you found hamburger for 10$ for only 6 hamburger. Next to it was a different brand of hamburgers for 7$ for 20 hamburgers. Lastly in the meat aisle there is a label on all of the meat stating the meat has been inspected and has been pasted down and can contain bacteria that may cause illness to humans.
