I went to the site to check it out.  No price given, but a nice 
description: "The nut of the almond tree has been known as one of the 
finest ingredients in cakes, pastry and desserts but its distinctive 
flavor and aroma has gained a gourmet reputation in recent years. This 
extract will provide all the qualities of almond to a variety of cakes, 
cookies and desserts."  Ok so far.  Then I looked at the picture (a 
bottle and a box).  Both had a large green rectangle that said ALMOND. 
Under that was a smaller orange strip that said "imitation."  I think 
I'll stick with the real thing.
