6 pears
2 lemons
2 grapefruits
1 cauliflower
¼ cabbage
4 spring onions
3 leeks
5 celery sticks
10 carrots
2 red peppers
3 white potatoes
5 red potatoes
1 zuccini
9.10€ (roughly = $13.50CAD)
Went to the central market the other day, as I typically do at least once a week, and bought some produce. It seemed like an awful lot for the price, but I can't remember how much fresh food costs in Canada. Apples are certainly cheaper there, and better: I remember buying big bags of them at the Hamilton Market for $2.50. Bought fresh clotchinas (Valencian mussels, which are just beginning to be in season) last night and made a nice pasta/seafood dinner. They were also really cheap (2.50€), and can probably be bought more cheaply, purchased as they were at my local supermarket. Delicious!
