The rains of earlier this year left the fair and the most expensive Brazilian already feel the soaring prices of vegetables.
Some items opened 2013 with the price up there. The lettuce rose 41.9% and cabbage, 64.2%.
The readjustment of vegetables was already seen since the end of the year, with an average high of only 11.08% in December, according to research Ceagesp (Society of General Warehouses of São Paulo).
According to the economist Claudio Felisoni, the adjustment was expected due to the excessive rain, since the crop failures and rising cost of transportation with the rains end up being passed on to the consumer.
But there are alternatives, such as researching prices and bargain with the vendors. Another option is to replace foods with more regard. This is the case of broccoli for zucchini, eggplant and watercress for fruit salad instead of salad greens.
