Except that for most things, US trade is the source of
cheap and semiwonderful, and if the economy goes down the
tubes, stuff will get cheaper and possibly semiwonderfuller.

How is supply managed? No-plant zones, warehousing, plowing
under fields of onions?

 JW> As well Ontario's wineries will face a suddenly tougher time thanks to
 JW> an influx of more, better and cheaper European wines.

So improve the wines or institute farm subsidies for the
poor Inniskillins.

 JW> (Some current cheese prices: no name bulk Cheddar - $5.49 per lb,

That's not so bad, if it's real Cheddar or even Cheddaroid.

 JW> Title: Rao's Penne with Cabbage, Sausage, and Marinara Sauce

What a great idea. Cut your sausage with the cheapest
possible vegetable, then serve to gullible arriviste
patrons. Rao's was of course the hole-in-the-wall made
famous by Woody Allen.

Actually, sausage and cabbage taste pretty decent together,
but pecorino? Gaah.
