This is a rough estimate of everything we ate last month, and how much it cost us.
| Fruit | Quantity | Cost |
| Avocados | 90 | $90 |
| Bananas | 30 | $7.59 |
| Capsicum | 1kg | $2 |
| Cherimoya | 1kg | $3.70 |
| Cucumbers | 5.5 kgs | $7.33 |
| Durian | 40 kgs (including shells) | $124.68 |
| Grapefruits | 7 | $3.5 |
| Grapes | 35 kgs | $59.00 |
| Longans | 1.5 kg | $9.90 |
| Lychees | 1 kg | $5.77 |
| Honeydew Melons | 2 | $3 |
| Rock Melon | 3 | $4.00 |
| Nectarines | 4 Kg | $10.26 |
| Oranges | 17 kgs | $15 |
| Peaches | 1 kg | $2.10 |
| Pears | 9 kg | $9.30 |
| Pineapple | 1 | $1.50 |
| Tamarind | .7 kg | $3.50 |
| Tomatoes | 7 kgs | $11.47 |
Totalling $384.10 Which means that we averaged $12.39 for 2 of us each day on food.. That's less than $7 each! (Australian dollars per day).
Now that's budgetting! Considering that most people living here would need easily 5 or more times that amount each day depending on the state of their toxicity.. feeding addictions such as tobaco and alcohol as well as the take-away fast food cravings that regularly also get appeased.
Bare in mind that we generally eat an average of 5 or 6 different things each day, and that I fast on Fridays, and that we did about 10 days just on watermelon juice.. (see here: Days of juice feasting March 2008), then it should give a very rough idea of what we might eat on a daily basis..
To see more of what we eat on a more or less day to day basis, then head on over to Kveta's blog, where she tends to give rough summarys of what we both eat daily.

Whao, what a list... =p
I'm drooling. Wish I had my freedom to have all fruits like that. I mean compared to spending cheap on non-fruits? I recall seeing it exceed all that stuff, which includes doing dishes etc.
I think I'm going to go get me some mineolas now..hahah
