Cherish that, brother. In a couple years whole foods/fruits will be scarce as its perishable, and more costly. Processed foods are becoming more acceptable for convenience.triniterribletim wrote:I love buying and juicing oranges. 20 kg boxes cost around 40 TTD here. Nothing better than a fresh, cold glass with breakfast or lunch.
Thanks, hopefully I can get some or at least one in time.
