Yeah I actually took a look at Stony Hill Farms pie ingredients, I am not sure where I can get a monoglyceride plant, but I am interested to know how well they grow in NJ.

Its all kind of a scam really- I treat it like a slightly more expensive foodstore that happens to set up shop down the block from me, but there is nothing better about their stuff at all IMHO. This past fall I was really disappointed in their apples- Shoprite's Honey Crisps were better, and Shoprite's produce is typically one of their weak spots.
