And what Terri said about bananas --- that's why they are not allowed on the diet of the Quick Weight Loss Centers. Most other fresh fruit is.
Here many people use alpiste to control diabetes, wholesale cost $0.60 per pound.

Alpiste retail price is $5.00 to $8.00 per pound, while Canaryseed retail price is $1.50 per pound.

The interesting thing is that they are identical except for the labels, and both came out of the same exact 1000 kg bulk tote bag.
