Customers were told that potatoes are at the price of meat - not only in the occupied Crimea, but everywhere in Russia and everything is expensive

"The high cost of potatoes in Crimea is not related to the poor harvest in the region. This situation is observed throughout the country. At the same time, the republic consumes 210 thousand tons of potatoes, and produces about a third (70 thousand tons). The rest is imported from other regions," the Crimean public explained to the buyers who had started a battle under the message with "space" prices for young potatoes in the occupied Crimea a few days ago.

Let us remind you that the Voice of Crimea wrote about this earlier. But the explanation with a picture of the price tag for old potatoes - 100 rubles per 1 kg - did not calm the readers down. It is also actively commented on:

"Prices.... Space." "There will be an excuse for all the increases" "Now the price of everything will rise and there is no control." "This is also the price in Anapa, but you can find it for 85 rubles. Apparently, they have started to take care of public health, less starch means healthier people." "What is there to be surprised about: potatoes are 85-100, sausage is 400-600, and you can even buy meat without skin and bones. A net of potatoes costs 1500-2000 rubles - enough for a month, or even more. It's cheaper to grow it yourself, if you can."

Some readers jokingly advise switching to instant pasta: "Rolton - just add water". Others worry that now "you can't even switch to bread and water, because prices for everything are only going up," and a loaf of bread, even social bread, now costs 40 rubles, and some complain that in their village a loaf of bread costs 57 rubles.
