Yeah, it’s hard to know what the bulk price of almonds is on the industrial scale, and given that “raw” almonds in the US have to have been pasteurized, they’ve already had some processing.
Another analysis is to compare with soy milk.
At a local wholefoods:
32oz Soy milk. $1.99
1lb Soy beans. $1.99
32oz Almond milk. $1.99
1lb Raw Almonds. $6.99
That doesn’t tell us where the problem is, any of these prices could be being artificially inflated, but it’s pretty damning.
