Fruits

The fresh fruit here is delicious. You just have to cook it, boil it, or peel it. The last one is usually the easiest because the most common appetizing fruits (e.g. bananas and mangos) can all be peeled fairly easily. It’s possible to pick it right off the tree in some places but there are stands for them almost everywhere.

The people selling them can’t possibly be making much money though. There aren’t any real preservatives for them so they don’t last long and it looks pretty hard to move this kind of volume. I mean that’s a lot of bananas, and nobody’s gonna pay much considering there’s always another vendor like ten feet away.
