I've talked a lot about island cabbage, I thought I'd show you what it looks like.
This is a photo of the food I brought back from the two markets on my whirlwind of trips out to site and back. You'll notice some HUGE cucumbers, they were 200 vt. (The easiest is to see the number and move the . over 2 to make it dollars 200vt = $2.00. It's not direct BUT very close). The oranges were 30 vt. The pomplemouse? (Which is a big grapefruit and comes in red and white) it cost 30vt. The island cabbage, which are the big bundles, are a standard 100 vt but the bundles change in size. Next you have bundles of freshly pulled peanuts still attached for 100vt. So basically everything on that table cost $10.00 total. Talk about an awesome day at the market.
