Nemises Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 The lady at Makro vegie section said this thing is called a thuc and the price is 20b. Just wondering if that’s a fair price or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nemises Posted October 25, 2017 Author Share Posted October 25, 2017 Depends how she pronounced it.I asked the lady to pronounce it three times. It is pronounced EXACTLY THE SAME as the English “F word”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I am with you. There are a number of varieties. Thuk bouer (lilly flower) is my favourite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes quite precisely And the "thuc" is indeed the Thai word for a bottle gourd (calabash). http://www.thai-language.com/id/139121 (click on loudspeaker symbol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nemises Posted October 25, 2017 Author Share Posted October 25, 2017 Yes 20 baht is a fair price.Thanks for that, but with no offence intended, could you please advise how you know 20b is a fair price?For example, have you had much experience in dealing with thuks?

tonray Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Because similar vegetables that I have purchased over 3 years in Thailand cost roughly the same...and that is in street/wet markets. A price like that in Makro is good. If you have seen anything cheaper let us know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPI Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 If Porn likes a "thuc" and if she says not yet......is she just trying to be difficult??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemises Posted November 5, 2017 Author Share Posted November 5, 2017 If Porn likes a "thuc" and if she says not yet......is she just trying to be difficult???In that case I would pass on the thuc and grab a Chinese Morning Glory for 45b instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
