The $4.60 cheese appears to be around 3 to 3.5oz of cheese from what I can see. Which is not a bad price for Spanish manchego, I've purchased 8oz of manchego for $7.99 from Albertson's before. So even in other shops that carry the same cheese, it's similar in price to Whole Foods.
Even at Shoprite, which is a tier lower and cheaper than Albertson's has 6oz of Boar's Head manchego listed at $7.99/lb. So, the Whole Foods listed price for that cheese is actually not a bad deal in retrospect: http://www.shoprite.com/pd/Boars-Head/Manchego-Cheese/6-oz/042421151640/
I will say this picture though, the types of cheeses shown in here are cheaper cheeses... Jarlsberg and Swiss for example are specifically cheeses that are recommended to be used in fondues for instance, so they run on the cheaper side... aged provolone on the bottom right in the picture is a little more expensive at $14.99 per lb, and Vecchio at $15.99/lb
Anyway, the main reason that herve mons ovalie cheese is so much more expensive, is because A) the milk is completely raw and unpasteurized, and B) that cheese specifically has to be imported from France.

given that herve mons is in france it stands to reason that it gets imported from france
raw milk doesnt make a cheese more expensive, that's the hipster in you slipping out. the source of the milk will add to it's cost such as goats and sheep milk or horse milk, the aging, aging takes up space, it requires skilled, trained labor to make and check the cheeses, all of these things add to the cost but I'm going to blame it on greedy capitalist cheese makers trying to make some cheese off their cheese. cheese should be a right

I assumed that raw milk would be more expensive because they probably have to take more time to sterilize the buckets and nipple udders and machines frequently, and they probably also have to store the milk at lower temperatures which all adds up to the cost. I could be wrong though.

sanitation remains the same for all dairy, it's all sterilized after each use because it's always raw milk coming out of the teats, they cant milk pasteurized cows

Cheese (all dairy actually) is super fucked up when you think about all the processes involved in getting the finished block to you. Shits gross as hell, should be avoided.
Bacon was recently rated just as carcinogenic as tobacco in a study by the world health organization. So that's best avoided too.

of course some vegan fraudsters would try and push that. the group that pushes this crap about the various things causing cancer is corrupt, they're the IARC, a part of the WHO and they invite industry insiders in the vote on what causes cancer, they've taken large pay offs to claim many things cause cancer. PCRM is just another propaganda arm of PETA

Whatever you say bro. You obviously have done studies of your own to back up what you're saying I don't know why I even looked elsewhere for science when I could have just asked for your opinion.

I literally have never cared about something being "preserved" or "processed" ever. If it tastes good, eat it. And try to eat healthy. People struggle eating a healthy diet but it's just so simple

I never could stand the stuff, at least plain tomato soup especially with nasty grilled cheese 
Some soups that incorporate tomatoes like minestrone are pretty good though.

I'm not a fan of tomato soup either, never have been. Which is weird though cause I like tomato sauce.
But yeah for soups I prefer broth-base or creme-base.
