Buying produce

I think the main reason that veggies are so cheap in this country is because there is no overhead. Sellers just lay the veggies on a sheet on the ground on the side of the road. Some are retail sellers, but some are selling what they've grown themselves (49 percent of the people in this country live in rural areas). Veggie prices are extremely reasonable, even after the high inflation of the last decade, and we get some of the best looking produce I've seen anywhere.

Shopping like this can be hard on the knees though. Fortunately for me, some put their veggies on tables instead of on the ground.
