In 1975, you would have been hard-pressed to find a mango, let alone an organic one, in a "normal" Canadian grocery store.  The fact that we have that choice now is a good thing in my opinion.

Basic bread (as we would have bought in the 1970s) costs $2.50-$3 today, usually $2 on sale.  In 1975 there were price controls which further distorted the picture.
