Popular Post trainman34014 Posted May 6, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 6, 2022 70 Baht is cheap compared to the 89 and 92 i saw yesterday. They have jumped on the Bandwagon with Coconut Oil as well and that's up to 105 when no need for that at all. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rickudon Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 There are other oils, at a similar price. Shopping 2 days ago and Palm oil, Soya oil, Corn oil, even rice bran oil varieties under 70 baht a litre. And no shortage on the shelves. Sunflower oil is more expensive and less available, but THAT is the oil in short supply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
