When I went to Fry's grocery store, an hour or so after getting home from the airport, I was bummed at the selections and prices of produce. I totally got spoiled on the farmer's market right outside the door in Pavas.
Here in Phoenix, red and yellow sweet peppers are often very expensive, like several dollars each. Today, they were on sale for $1 each, which was nice...until I remembered how much sweet peppers cost in Costa Rica:
That 500 colones equals about $.86. That's 14 cents per pepper. And they were probably just picked, too.
Sigh.
