And please, please, if using a table remember to include row and column
scope. On a table as small as this it is not really essential, but once the
table grows (or if served from a database where it could be any size) good
column and row headings with scope attributes are essential.
<table summary="pretty bazillion product">
<caption>My Product</caption>
<tbody>
<tr>
<th scope="rows">Product Number</th>
<td>12334</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th scope="rows">Product Description</th>
<td>pretty</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th scope="rows">Product Cost</th>
<td>bazillion</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>

How about a table? They're not always evil...
<table summary="pretty bazillion product">
<caption>My Product</caption>
<tbody>
<tr><th>Product Number</th><td>12334</td></tr>
<tr><th>Product Description</th><td>pretty</td></tr>
<tr><th>Product Cost</th><td>bazillion</td></tr>
</tbody>
</table>
