Welcome to fruit season in Chile! For the second week in a row, my roommate and I walked the three or so blocks to the feria, or fair/market, that comes to our neighborhood on Sundays. Little produce stands line the sidewalks for a few blocks selling outrageous produce at ridiculously low prices. I'm so baffled by this and so excited about the strawberries I'm eating right now, I just had to tell you about it.
Here's what I bought today:
1/2 kilo (about 1.1 pounds) cherries
1 kilo (about 2.2 pounds) strawberries
1 huge zucchini
7 bananas
2 red peppers
3 hass avocados
4 tomatoes
All for the grand total of 2400 pesos, or, drum roll please, $3.96. Gah. I love Chile.
And for you visual learners out there:
Victory.
