Ishilove:
Apart from Africans, which other ethnicity eats plantains yonder UK?

Mindlog:
The Caribbeans and some South Americans, actually the plantains sold in the UK are majorly imported from Ecuador (South America).

Ishilove:
Interesting. That means you diasporans have access to many of our native food. Do they sell our kind of local beans there?

Okechinwadike:

Bag of onions (about 30) was £3 at Deptford Market yesterday.
The 3 peppers were a pound and the 3 plantain was £2.

descarado:
Till date, most of the sellers stand to sell. No shops to rent. It's an open market yet AMAC tax them heavily everyday. Can't they just do something right for once.

Why’s groceries cheap like this in the UK tho? It’s not like that in the US. As a single person, $300 isn’t enough for groceries in a month

Mindlog:
Yeah, UK is cheaper when it comes to buying foodstuffs as shipping costs from Africa to the UK is lower, when compared to the US.

budaatum:
What! So they gbamied at Deptford!?

I blame my laziness for not walking to Peckham, and the wages of my lazy sin is the hell of 3 plantain for £2.

I must repent!

Mindlog:
I buy from Baba Ltd, opposite Primark Peckham and next to KFC, if not mistaken.

Alakoriomo:
Even foods grown in the US are still way way expensive when compared to the UK. Wonder why’s that

Emzedz:
These abroadians self.. una to do..

NNTR:
I dont buy perishables from Peckham, as for that Baba Ltd, with the attendant on standby on the street, I just walk by, because his price is off limit for me

Deptford High Street nah gbaju ę, even Rye Lane Peckham & Peckham High Street joined sef too
- you're better off shopping at East Street Market, off Walworth Road for bargain deals.

The price of onions I bought for 30k for my mum in the village is not something I can't be proud of...it was very expensive. I bought half of a quarter bag for 30k this morning.

In fact,tomatoes have equally gone up because of the season we are in and prices of different species according to the baskets.

The pictures above are the ones being sold for #32,000 for big baskets and small baskets are going for 21k.

Sharing is also allowed for those who might not have the need for much.

A bag of pepper was sold for 38k this morning.

Mugu44:
You see those 2 zombies up there about to compare UK's N23k per hour wage to Tinubu's failed N75k per month wage

NNTR:
Peckham & Lewisham are two peas in a pod
- not cheap as East Street Market. You cant even get avocado at both

_{Personal text: Jesus is not a theologian. He is God who told stories.}

Mindlog:
There is avocado in Lewisham 4-5 in a bowl for £1.

NNTR:
I get them at East Street Market 6 - 7 for £1 and you select yourself
- they already have sliced open sample on display to put minds at rest
