I just spent $45 for a few basics & a couple of impulse items at #99Ranch in Concord, including $5 (on sale, down from $6) for a 6 pack of preserved duck eggs.

All the other preserved duck eggs were selling for $6 each. Since when did #PreservedDuckEggs cost $1/each??? 🤔

I remember, less than a year ago, when they only cost about $3 for a pack of 6. A 100% increase in less than a year??? 🤔🤔

The tariffs much be the reason for this. Thanks, #DiaperDon!!! 🤬

The best deal I got today was about 2# of #WinterMelon that I got for just 79 cents/# which will make a lot of Doong Gwa Tong (Winter Melon Soup).

I've tried growing wax gourd (Benincasa hispida) but have never seen it in the menu. Now I found a Taiwanese restaurant that serves "wintermelon tea" with this fruit. It's delicious! Very sweet and jelly-like. #FruitExplorer #BenincasaHispida #WinterMelon #TaiwaneseCuisine
