Pineapples, minnows, and litchis

In the US, many people don’t know in which month asparagus ripens, or when avocados are at their best. And I can’t blame them, since the little “Grown in Mexico” tag has very small writing. Here in Madagascar, that isn’t quite the same. In a nice juxtaposition of how it is in the US, local organic seasonal fruits and vegetables are delicious and cheap. Out of season, imported, tasteless produce is pricey. The logical choice? Save money and eat fresh food!
