    A small bag of potatoes costs 7-10 dollars, and fresh peas are ridiculously expensive so most people just buy frozen ones. Tomatoes are also about 50 cents/1 dollar each. Olive oil is also very expensive but can be found for relatively cheap if you look hard enough.

    This isn’t possible in food deserts though. THERE IS NO FOOD other then McDonalds. Simply none. Nothing.

        5 pounds is considered a small bag (if you’re not getting the fancy potatoes) and that’s about 2.3 kilos.

        On sale you can get that bag around 5 dollars. Sometimes they drop to 3 dollars and I try to buy as much as I can.

          Jesus that’s a fortune for potatos… Especiallt considering your minimum wage and the minimum wage in Poland. It’s a huge difference.
