    Made in Dorset – blame the STGEUR exchange rate.
    Can’t moan that’s it’s an overpriced IRISH artisan product.

    My god. We sould all be making our own granola under the grill for about €2/kilo. Oats, nuts, honey, dried fruit. It’s not rocket science.

    You know that you don’t have to buy it? The price is right there in front of you. It’s not like Temple Bar pubs charging €20 a pint to unsuspecting tourists.

    In fairness, raw foods require far more effort to make and require a lot of electricity if dehydrating (which I imagine these two products to be)
    Dehydrators cost a small fortune to run..
    It frustrates me that people find it so hard to spend money on quality products to fuel their body but have no problem spending €50 or so on booze for a couple of hours on a night out.

      Yes but it’s still just granola, if a company can’t produce it and sell it at a reasonable price point they need to reexamine their business plan and either change the way its made or make something else.

        Raw food is a niche sector.
        Take kale crips for example.. usually around €4 for a little snack.
        The demand (if even small) is there and they are just a small company.

          The fact that they are a small company doesn’t of itself justify charging €4 for a packet of crisps, even if they are made out of Kale or lembas or whatever superfood is taste of the month. If people are rich enough or mad enough to pay €4 for fried cabbage leaves that’s their own concern but the need of others to justify that is dumbfounding.

    Also Gluten-Free will add somewhat to the cost. Compare the price, for instance, of GF pasta with regular.

    I’m not sure that it justifies this class of markup though.
