I never understood why fruit was so ridiculously expensive. I ended up eating fruit maybe once a month and at that it was something cheap like bananas. Cheapest solution for me was to eat fruit at restaurants which offered little bits along with deserts.

Can’t say I ever paid attention to the price in Australia, i know the bananas went through the roof a few years back …. not sure what they’re like these days.

Those prices are amaizing, I havn’t eaten much fruit in Japan but how do you think the fruit you have eaten there compares to the cheaper Australian fruits? The most outragous fruit prices I have seen here so far have only been Bananas back when the cyclone whiped out the banana feilds in Aus and generaly Mangoes at $3.50 each.When I first learned that in Japan people buy Mellons for prices over 10000yen I was shocked!Billy

Pity you mate, i left those days behind me when i came to Japan …. if there’s ONE thing i love , that’s being able to sleep when i want to, not when the neighbors let me.

I’d buy that triangular watermelon for 6 bills just to drop it from the top of my apartment building onto these two drunk douchebags that keep coming home at 4 in the morning, yelling and screaming.

I’m extremely curious whether or not anyone ended up buying that beat-up, triangular watermelon. For $600. Yeesh…

Wow! That is some expensive fruit! They better taste good. Anyway, Japan is known for being expensive so I wouldn’t be surprised. This got me thinking though about Korean grapes, if you get a chance you need to try them once in your lifetime. They are the best grapes I have ever tasted, and once I start eating them I can’t stop until they are all gone. They are that addictive.
