I'm "locked in" in Sweden but it can be interesting to hear how the food ACCESS and prices are in different parts of Phils because of covid lock downs.
Most of the Filipinos, who have told me about it, are poor so for them it's NOT about access to food, but access to money, so they can't buy even if there are access.
From some of Brian's and Maricel's recent videos there are some related info.
They went to a market in NE Bohol. There were many MORE vendors than normaly, much vegs and fruits but I believe they said short of proteins from animals.
Brian noticed prices had went up fast, some around 15-20 percent.
Brian found avocados:
-How much?
-80.
-80?!
-50.
He found that to expensive still, so he walked around much and looked for someone else selling avocados. Finaly he gave up and went back to buy the avocados at the first vendor with Maricel. Brian chosed four. The vendor weighted it.
-50.
-Oh for the total?!
-Yes.
-Then I want some more.
Brian had thought 50 were for EACH, but it was per KILO so the thought high price were CHEAP so his search for cheap elsewhere were unnecesary hahaha
