Something ain't right in currant pricing
Mr. Quinn sells his own currants to restaurants and ice cream companies, including Van Leeuwen Artisan Ice Cream in Brooklyn, and he sells bags of frozen red and black currants by mail year-round from his Web site, currants.com. Five-pound bags are $15, and home winemakers can buy 50-pound bags for $275.A Tart Berry Reintroduces Itself So let me get this straight, in 5 pound bags the currents are $3 a pound, but if I am willing to buy them in bulk 50 pound bags, they are $5.5 a pound. I wonder if this is the real price or a error in the NY Times.
