Consumers Union found that milk can be purchased for as much as $2.20 less per gallon at neighborhood grocery stores and smaller chains. Odabashian said, "It makes no sense that the big supermarkets charge customers so much more for milk than many mom-and-pop stores. The smaller stores pay higher costs per gallon for moving a smaller volume of milk, and many of the big supermarket chain retailers are also milk producers, so they should be able to charge less because they cut out the middlemen.''

Im confused, thats her solution to the "high milk price problem" right there..so what is this all about? Go and buy your milk at the cheaper mom and pop stores, and the supermarkets will eventually lower their prices to compete...this isn't difficult.
