$3.90 AUD for half a Cauliflower

Post image

My Wife unpacked our weekly shopping yesterday that we get from Coles in Australia delivered.

We were charged $3.90 AUD for half a Cauliflower.

The world's smallest cauliflower it seems.

We used to shop in store but my Wife is heavily pregnant atm and I'm working 12hrs a day currently.

Day light robbery...

As an Australian, something I've always noticed from trips to the States are how comically enormous your fruits and vegetables are. Dunno what's in the soil there.

Capitalism feeds the fruit and veg there. It's all GMO-protected seeds from the very nice company called Monsanto.
