What's the deal with milk prices here?

Kennebec Journal Staff

I am a 1965 graduate of Gardiner High School and I was recently home for a class reunion. I rented a cottage on Cobbossee Lake and went to Wal-Mart in Augusta to stock up on food for my stay in Maine.

I now reside in Ohio where milk is $1.85 a gallon.

How in the world can the price of milk be over $4 a gallon and almost $5 in some places?

How can people charge that much?

It is twice what it is here in Ohio ... What's up with that?
