The Food Difference: Australia vs Buenos Aires

There are things I love and hate about both of these countries but when it comes to food it's Argentina the bad and Australia the good.  It's not that you cannot eat good food in Argentina because you totally can, but it will cost you.  My hands-down favourite thing about my birth country is that even if you don't have a lot of money, you can still eat a huge range of beautiful fresh produce.  You can buy this food at the supermarket, or if you want it even cheaper you can go to a market for even more amazingly cheap and beautiful food.  Point in case recently at the South Melbourne markets where close to the end of trading on a Sunday I bought an avocado, a punnet of strawberrys and two bags of mushrooms for $4.50. Food is one of my favourite things, but aside from that it's a basic necessity and shouldn't consume your entire pay for the month.  Last night I enjoyed grilled salmon with a goat's cheese salad and couldn't be happier in the land of affordable food.
