Back from the market. Found some honeycomb so that was a win. The whole experience left me very ‘whelmed’ though.
Some dickhead is attempting to sell toasties for SIXTEEN (16) AUSTRALIAN DOLLERYDOOS each. Incredible. I paid $6 for a walkin’ around pretzel which may have been made yesterday because it was not fresh and under salted. I went to buy 2 simple iced donuts, 1 for me and 1 for Ron thinking they’d be fresh and delicious… nope, chewy and $11.40. I felt like a banana smoothie but from what I can tell you literally cannot buy that. If you want a 12 berries, flaxseeds, rocket, dove feathers, spinach, kale, carrot and almond milk smoothie for $17 they have you covered though. Just whack some banana, frozen yoghurt, beef milk and maybe a dash of honey if you’re feeling fancy into a blender and sell it to me for $8 you pretentious puffy-coated bastards.
I did pick up a lil lasagne for dinner from the fresh pasta place so I’m hoping that’s good. Oh and I was only there for like 45 minutes I think so parking was free, which is nice.
I actually relate to a lot of what you said. When I was younger, markets were places to go to get bargains, cheaper than retail or cheap imported stuff. Now I find, especially on the ready to eat hot food side of things, it’s not a bargain at all. Last week there was a stall selling pretty average gozleme for $15 each. At my local not terribly cheap bakery I can get 2 for less than that price! It’s crazy. I ended up buying an underwhelming pie and 3 (admittedly very tasty) sausage rolls and ended up with very little change from $30. $16 for a toasty is just outright fucking ridiculous!

Quality review. Thank you.

What are you going to do with the honeycomb?
I’m gonna eat it. I’ve never tried it before but I’d been curious. I can see there’s many ways to enjoy it and I have enough of it to try them all.
Let us know how it goes.
I’ve never had it before myself.
