Ah. That makes sense. So, the quality in product comes down to where and how it’s roasted, I guess? Assuming both roasts are negligibly different, choosing the more expensive option is more a matter of whether or not I can afford to support a local business, then?

Something not being accounted for here is that those pasture raised Whole Foods eggs, which btw are on sale this week, taste significantly better than Aldi eggs.
Pasture raised will almost always taste better assuming 1) they are fresher and 2) the refrigeration chains are more tightly monitored.

A friend of mine just called to get my take on what a fair beer cocktail price would be. He's having a beer based take on a moscow mule with some sort of small batch lime sour beer mixed with some house made ginger beer. Based on what he described, I guessed he paid $8. He said that's exactly what he paid but was surprised to hear that I thought that was a fair price.

banh mi:
Hanoi: $0.50 Houston: $1.50-$5 West Coast: $8-$9 NYC: $13
This is the perfect example of the market doing what the market does. Reminds me of the time I went to a Subway in Vegas and paid $8.50 for a $5 foot long.

Imagine living in an American city with a heavy Vietnamese population but also a large amount of New Orleans Katrina refugees and you can probably get a sense of why I'm totally okay paying as much as $5 for a good banh mi.
