Mr. Patrick Kent:

I have to address that. The actual product that is GMO-free is not edible. It is a terrible bland white product that could not be spread on bread. We are not comparing like with like. Kerrygold has only 3% GMO addition. It is a fantastic product but we need to get a higher price for it.
