Answer:

The correct answer is B. They came a long way and passed through many hands.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the middle ages, especially during the 14th century what we call spices were very expensive inasmuch as they were carried overland and took several years to reach the European Continent. and right after the crusades, the Arabs people prohibited to send spices to Europe.
