kevvy Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Went to makro today and brought the best celery I have ever seen there , It was not the Chinese garbage , but flown in from somerville, Victoria ,Australia.Sure I paid more (140baht) well worth it .Also they had Tasmanian Huron smoked salmon so a few packets went into the trolley. So if you want the celery they had about 10 boxes ..spoke to the guy in charge and said he will be getting more veggies in from Australia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sceadugenga Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 I usually get celery in Big C, they sometimes have the good stuff there. Makro is always worth a look, I occasionally get Parmesan cheese there, a kilogram wedge of imported is good value and keeps forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randell Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 One of the reasons for the celery shortage and cost is the newish health tread of celery juice Just talking with a friend in North Vancouver and celery is 5 to 7 $ Can a bunch these days. a similar thing has been happening with cauliflower and all the different uses been applied in the cooking world ( pizza crusts , rice replacement etc) All the new diet trends sure end up costing every a lot of extra money and it never returns back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I admit that wherever you go to eat here there will be cockroaches somewhere on the premises, but just did not expect it from a so called hi class chain............
