    Strawberries that sell out for $50 a box !

    Strawberries that sell out for  a box !-screenshot-2022-07-18-19-39-a


    Video embedded explaining the ideology and process ... How Oishii'''s vertical farms grow strawberries that sell for $20 a box

    Oishii doesn’t grow your typical strawberries.
    For starters, a box of six extra-large berries used to sell for $50 at Whole Foods.

    The New Jersey-based company’s berries don’t taste like your typical strawberries, either: They’re sweeter, with a denser, juicier center.

    The flavor, aroma and “buttery texture” are engineered in three vertical farms: two in New Jersey and one in Los Angeles.

    Very cheap here. About $3.35 for a big punnet. Sweet, tasty and delivered free to my door.

    Informative video~ don't know if I would pay $50 for those strawberries, but they look extra sweet!
    Thanks for that video. I'm actually going to use it in my ESL class to get opinions on whether they would pay $50 or not for these.
    I'm currently teaching grade 6/7 online. Good to see you David!

    Yep, toting 50 kg of durian up and down muddy slopes all day can do that. Still ฿500 is not to be sneered at.
