Cinnamon

I was going to buy some cinnamon sticks at Stop and Shop today (for seasoning cider) and found that a container of five sticks was almost seven dollars. Is the cinnamon tree endangered? Does it come from a war zone? What gives?

Black pepper seems stupidly expensive lately, too.

Black pepper has always been ridiculously expensive.
