Around this time of the year almost everyone are trying to stay healthy but the problem is fruits and vegetables are really expensive in New York. For someone coming from Sweden $3 per pound for apples are really expensive. In Sweden we pay around $1 per pound.
So if you love fruits and want to buy it cheap do not look further, I found a place btw 41 & 42st and 8 Avenue.
They sell fresh fruits and fresh vegetables for insane low price. I bought apples for a dollar/pound, bananas for 59cent/pound.
This place is def worth to try and the their products comes from local farms, so you don't have to worry about chemicals etc...
