As a good source of protein, Vitamin A, calcium, iron and fiber, broccoli is so full of nutrients, some call it a "super food." It's also popular at the supermarket, whether it's grown in America or overseas. But Americans are willing to pay $1 more per pound for U.S. organic broccoli than that from China and Mexico and up to 32 cents more per pound than that grown in Canada.
