Expensive. That sums up my grocery shopping experience in Singapore during the last eighteen months.
Especially for cherries.
Why must my favorite fruit cost so much!

A conversion for those who need it:
1 kilogram = 2.2 pounds.
$47.90 Singapore dollars = $34.03 US dollars
Do the math.
Rainier Cherries cost nearly $15.50 USD a pound!
That’s a lot, especially considering cherries are in-season in Australia right now.
By my calculations, that’s about $13.50 a pound more than I’m used to paying.
That’s the pits.

And when we do occasionally buy some…they taste terrible!
