The were no pears and I took one of the last bunches of bananas. Apples were close to over as so pineapples. There wasn't a single fruit variety selling for less than 1.5 €/kilo, usually my price top.
Alcohol free beverages were also lacking, bottled water, gasified juices, etc, all in lower quantities than usual; but it was in the beer section that the shortage was more visible with just a single 6 pack available for some varieties. No diary milk to see also.
There was some fresh fish, but only the bigger grades. Friday Lisbon celebrates Saint Anthony's day, when sardines are a traditional dish. It seems this year there won't be any.
Bread and bakery in general were still plentiful.
At 5 o´clock Portugal plays against the Czech. Will there be enough beer for the event? I better get one asap. Vencit omnia veritas.
That would lead to a rather limited diet for me courtesy of what NYC commercial rents do to prices. Actually that's not quite true, market power matters as well, which explains why supermarkets in poor neighbourhoods offer poorer quality produce at higher prices than the higher rent affluent areas.
