Food

Someone brought it to my attention that bananas are MASSIVELY expensive in Australia at the mo. They are about $1.20 a bunch here. Cheap as (banana) chips... Let's compare fruit prices, I will write here what I am paying for fruit and stuff and you think about it;
(Unless otherwise indicated all prices are for ONE item, not per kilo)

Apple - $1.85
Cucumber - $0.45
Orange - $0.80
Kiwi - $1.00
Whole pineapple - $5.50
Whole watermelon - $10-50
Whole melon - $15-50
Avocado - $1.70

I think in the end it is kind of the same because we pay more here for stuff that is cheap over there and then vice versa too. It annoys me that the fruit is priced per item though, puts me off buying more than one of anything for some reason... Chicken meat is cheap as, although beef is heaps expensive, but proabably not too much worse than at home anyway, just can't find a T-bone anywhere. Fish is cheap as and they have EVERYTHING you could want to eat in the way of seafood just at the supermarket which is great. I have been living on salmon steaks. YUMMY. Hmm, all this talk is making me hungry, better go home!!
