We are so spoiled here - the abundant availability of fresh fruit and vegetables corresponding so closely with our preferred diet. So today's shopping at Prinos greengrocers is as follows: 3 courgettes, 4 tomatoes, 3 small cucumbers, a little over a kilo of onions, three quarters of a kilo of carrots, a large bunch of parsley, two large pink grapefruit (weighing a pound each) and 200 grams of taramosalata (a beautiful creamy pink dip made of olive oil, fish roe, bread crumbs and seasoning and much smoother and creamier than that sounds). Total price €5.20 ($7 CAD, £4.47).
