You'd have to convince me that a box of cereal in Northern Va. costs substantially more than a box of cereal in elsewhere in the US.
There are things that are cheaper in higher col areas than lower, like water. Our water is very cheap compared to other places.
You've brought nothing to the col "debate" except what you believe with no actual facts to back up your suppositions.
The food costs are related to the location of the food source and the cost of transportation, and the prevailing wages of the store workers and cost of store infrastructure. The prevailing wage effects the costs of services, e.g. daycare or plumbing costs in the Northeast is much more expensive than comparable service in the midwest.
I'm sure if we all bought our food on the internet as you suggest, we'd see a rapid increase due to the inefficient distribution method, besides just being silly.
" . . . but you can't compare another place (unless of course she lives there) to continue the debate."
Can't? Like it's a law or a rule? Maybe you'd better show us in TOS where one "can't" do that. Thanks!

And again, that's simply not true.
