      I love Kiwifruit season when they get down to like $1/kg

      I eat a lot of them.

      The juice is great for tenderizing meat also.

      • Man, where do you live? I’m in Minnesota, and our kiwi have to come from halfway around the globe. $1/lb sounds like a fantasy to me.

        I once dated a girl who grew up in Hawaii. She used to mock us mainlanders for buying starfruit. First of all, because she thought they aren’t a very good fruit, but second because apparently where she grew up, they were something of a pest plant: they were everywhere and dropped their fruit on the sidewalk and you’d step on them if you weren’t careful and it’d make a mess.

        It’s all perspective, huh?

          $1/lb sounds like a fantasy to me.

          Man, just wait until you find out that they’re actually paying 1/2.2lb, or $0.45/lb
