Fruit prices, what's the cheapest per kilogram in Pattaya

[SAFETY FIRST]

My mate from Oz is in town. 

 

Sat on soi Buakhou, drinking a few beers, watching the world go by.

Saw a ute (pick up) 8kg mangosteen for 100 baht, cheap.

 

It's always hit and miss with mangosteen, lots of rocks in amongst the display, I prefer to pick my own.

I got lucky, not too many uneatable in my 8kg 👍

 

I'm a big fruit and vege eater, God's food. 🙏

 

 

Let me know what you see. 

 

BTW, all you grumpy bums, please eat 3 to 5 servings of fruit every day, you'll find life so much more enjoyable and you'll live longer. 

Oh yeah, HAPPINESS, is an important ingredient to living a longer life. 

 

Take care out there 🥗

Ratanakorn market in Thepprasit is the biggest and best, i go up and down on my motorbike. I don't buy fruit from the back of vehicles, better to pick your own

Yes, how lucky are we to be living close to the best fruit and veg market on the planet.

 

I've noticed, recently the occasional sign at different stalls, not to eat the fruit, the Russians have been helping themselves. 😂

 

I don't usually buy from the back of trucks but thought it was a great offer 8kg, 100 baht.

The trucks on Jomtien Beach Road have some good prices and I've been happy with the quality, except the mangosteens. I've had terrible luck with those.

trying one grape or a segment already opened makes sense, but yes I've seen that sign too

Looking for the cheapest fruit? If you are on a budget, I have seen some shelves in Big-C where they sell fruit & other perishables at a deep discount. I think these may need to be thrown out in a day or two, but they look good to eat same day.

I picked up some local durian for 45 baht per kg yesterday.

it goes great with cold beer.

Also in Naklua. Many food trucks with good prices.

 

They are coming from the neighboring provinces usually.
