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

Less than 2 hrs from the major kiwifruit producing region.

Mid-season, I could drive to an orchard and back before lunch. To buy the fruit even cheaper in bulk.

Next time try your pineapple with a dash of salt.

Thank you!!! I was actually going to ask how I could chip away at the roof of my mouth at the same time my fruit eats my tongue.

Jk. Does it make it better?
