I doubt most of the savings are passed on to the consumer. Companies will typically charge consumers as much as they can get away with no matter what their costs are and will happily poison people with shitty contaminated fruit if the lower costs mean they can stuff their pockets with more money while continuing to keep consumer prices as high as possible.
