Went to the grocery store today for our weekly re-fill. It seemed that, on a per serving basis, fruit and veg are a lot more expensive than meat or grains. So I did a little calculating on our groceries.....
Per Serving, from low to high:
couscous: .43
spinach pasta: .45
canned tomatoes: .53
broccoli: .59
apples: .83
cottage cheese: .86
yogurt: 1.06
kransky's: 1.40 (an Aussie sausage Jeff has fallen in love with)
lamb chops: 1.49
grapes: 1.50
avocado: 1.75
chicken thighs: 1.90
kale: 2.12 (called silverbeet here; because it cooks down so much you have to buy a lot to get one serving)
fruit juice: 2.59
Pepsi: 3.29
So, it's not as overt as I thought standing in the check-out line but there are some surprises here. Anyone have any ideas how this would compare to prices in the US?
