Cheap Foods in Chile

One thing we are enjoying is that the fruits and vegetables are great in Chile. In general, they are less expensive, and some are just amazingly cheap. Including:

Cherries: US: $3.49/pound
Chile: 50 cents/pound


Strawberries:
US: $2.99/pound?
Chile price: 70 cents/pound

Wine (mid range): US: $9/bottle?

Chile price: $3/bottle

OK, wine is not a fruit or vegetable, but had to mention it.

Basil US: $2/bunch

Chile: 40 cents
