My entry to #marketFriday by @dswigle for the 14th of October 2022.
I love the size of this pawpaw, looks very much like a tuber of yam. This particular pawpaw cost NGN750 I didn't buy it because I just needed what I can eat instantly. That is way too big for one person to use.
The prices of pawpaw, pineapple and water melon has not really changed. However, the price of orange has doubled. An orange used to be NGN 25 but now it is now NGN60.
I ended up buying 3 oranges for instant consumption.
Where is your market? It is hard to compare when we don't know where it is! Are these oranges for a snack? Breakfast? Lunch? Instant consumption is to eat right away, but, I guess nutritionally, it makes a difference what it is for. :)
#MarketFriday began as a way to reach out across the globe and learn about different cultures through by their markets, especially local markets and farmers markets and eventually branching out and evolving over time from straight shopping to a cultural affair as it highlights how we differ and then again, how much we are alike. We have become a melting pot of culture, but, it is still the Rituals, Festivals, food, architecture, even your language/languages that separate us... Along with the fact of what is these things are normal for us. There are unwritten rules that rule our social behaviors. I see this as allowing for increased tolerance between cultures and nations, and opportunities to come together on an even playing ground. A strong culture can be beneficial to a country as it promotes unity, especially during a crisis, peaceful debate, and open dialogue. I have learned so much about all of you and it has been an amazing experience. I can only hope that learning about each other can help us work together for a peaceful world.
