You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Calculate the cost per ounce for each.
The more economical one will have a lower cost per ounce.
Sutter:
329%2F25.5=12.9
Sutter costs 12.9 cents per ounce.
Muir Glen:
379%2F26=14.6
Muir Glen costs 14.6 cents per ounce.
If the tastes are similar, Sutter would be the more economical choice.
