Check out this papaya!

We went food shopping yesterday and bought this papaya for less than 2 dollars.
Since we are only two: my husband and I, we chose the smallest one we saw.
It's funny how so many items here, even though they are so inexpensive, they are out of the reach of the poor. If they have some money, do you think they are going to "waste" it on fruits and vegetables? No, they'd buy rice, beans and meat if they can afford it.


Se imaginan esta papayota por menos de dos dolares? Ayer fuimos a hacer la compra en el supermercado y como solo somos dos en casa, mi esposo y yo, escogimos la mas pequena que vimos.
Es triste ver cuantos productos alimenticios, a pesar de que son baratos, se encuentran fuera del alcance de los pobres. Si ellos consiguen algo de dinero, ustedes creen que ellos van a "desperdiciarlos" en frutas y vegetales? No, ellos compran arroz, frijoles y carne si les alcanza.
