When looking at expensive fruit in Japan, I think about this one old episode of Iron Chef where the special ingredient was peaches. They profiled the peaches and they were from a tiny farm where this old man and old woman grew them. Each one was so cared for, like they were put in paper bags while they were on the tree to protect them. But peaches get their color from UV rays, so when the brix meter indicated that they were sweet enough for harvest, the old man and old lady would remove the paper bags and spread silver Mylar on the ground and pin back the leaves with paper clips so the fruit get light from all directions. Then they were picked carefully and never stacked to preserve their shape. I also worked for a time in Wakayama where they grow a lot of plums for umeboshi and also mikan. Most of the farms are very small, and they don’t have low cost immigrant labor, so the fruit they produce is never going to be the cheap option. Instead they focus on the quality of the fruit so they can justify the price - and still earn a living for themselves.

Singapore here. We can buy those Japaense fruits here. 6 strawberries packed like jewels, 1 tray USD 18, 1 apple in a clear box displayed like a statue for USD 8, 250g green grapes that look like flawless green pearls for USD 25, I saw up to USD 50. Give your family some fruits after lunch?

Wow, that’s quite something! I’m not sure if all that extra effort would be worth the price, for me, anyway. I find I can get yummy fruit if I buy at the local markets, where fruit is grown nearby and sold seasonally. It’s no more expensive (often less expensive) than the supermarkets which ship fruit from far away, but the flavour and texture is much better. I eat too much fruit for it to just be a special treat.

Ehh, in the us almost ALL of our produce has been painstakingly engineered to look as good as possible for as long as possible, and to be big. Taste it *definitely* not as important. That’s changed somewhat recently with apples, but take apples of the recent past for example. Red Delicious was one of the most popular apples. Taste wise they’re below mediocre, but they’re big, very red, and get a coating of wax for shininess in the store 😅

Its really crazy how expensive fruits are in Japan and also the role they have in society. Just for comparison, the price of these fruits in a cheap German supermarket in season: 1 package Cherrys: 2€ (summer) 1 melon: 2€ (summer) 2 mandarins: 0.50€ (winter) 1 peach: 0.30€ (summer) 1kg watermelon: 1.2€ (summer) 1 apple (depending on type): 0.15-0.5€ (all year) So about a third of prices in japan id say. And I've eaten all of these in Japan too (the cheap versions) and they are not or just slightly better.

@stevewebber707 2 ай бұрын

I remember my first experience eating tree ripened peaches. So much better than grocery store products, that they aren't even comparable. Some fruits simply don't ship and keep well in stores when ripe. But fresh picked fruit is almost always better. Even apples change surprisingly over some days after picking.

@agentrikamcgee 2 ай бұрын

Whenever I come to Japan, I find myself gravitating toward the fruit stalls in the shotengai and the fruit sections of supermarkets. Even the cheap ones that are already cut up and packed for a serving look so appetizing. And I love buying the delicious fruits to go with my cheap breakfasts of konbini onigiri and canned coffee- a luxury I can't have back home. Strawberries are my favorite- they're so expensive yet bland where I'm from, but even the comparatively cheaper strawberries in Japan are much more delicious. I could literally eat them everyday for the week or so I usually stay in Japan and never get tired.

Where I’m from in North America (USA) we don’t have fruit cafes like what you showed in the video. Fruit here is considered more a staple food group, rather than a dessert or special treat. Fruit is sometimes given as gifts (such as edible arrangements, fruit baskets, or fruit of the month subscriptions), but you probably wouldn’t get a fruit gift from the supermarket, and I’ve never seen a market dedicated to fruit for gifts, as was featured in the video. We often eat fruit based desserts (apple pie, banana split, cherry cheesecake), but not usually on its own. For fruit to count as a typical dessert, it usually must have copious amounts of sugar and fat (butter, cream, oil) added. On the one hand, I think North Americans might do better to have more of an Asian perspective of fruit, viewing it as a sweet treat or something special. This brings more of a positive association with fruit, and perhaps would replace the less healthy desserts that we often eat. However, the greatest dietary contributor to disease is not eating enough fruit. I would hate for cost to deter people from eating an essential food group. Fruit should be eaten everyday, multiple servings per day, whether that’s with breakfast, for a snack, or as a dessert. I’m not sure which would encourage North Americans to eat more fruit: to think of it as a special treat or indulgence (psychologically making it more appealing) because it’s more expensive and grown with greater care, or to think of it as a staple food group to include in large amounts, and as a result being less expensive but grown with less care (financially making it more accessible). Bottom line, I think it’s important that we all eat fruit, each and every day. This was a very fun video to watch. One of my dream trips is to travel to tropical regions in order to try local fruit, ripened on the tree. I’m sure that the mangoes, lychees, and golden berries I can access where I live are not nearly as good as what I’d find in Hawaii, Southern Asia, South and Central America, and Africa. It would be amazing to try the local fruits there - many of which probably don’t even make their way to the markets where I’m from.

I went to school and Chattanooga, which is on the Georgia Tennessee border. Georgia is known for their peaches. In fact, its nickname is the peach state when I was down there I would ride my bicycle to the farmers market that would happen on the weekend and let me tell you the peaches there were so ripe and juicy that if you bid into them, they would just run down your face, I have yet to have another peach as good as the ones that I used to have in Chattanooga that were fresh off the farm and off the tree. They were so sweet that they would taste like candy and even though they weren’t quite as perfectly shaped they were the sweetest most delicious things I have ever eaten .

I've read that, over 100 years ago, pineapples were something of a status symbol. They only grew in specific tropical regions, so it was a way to show off your wealth that you were able to get one. I've heard these ridiculously expensive fruits in Japan are mostly used as gifts rather than something you buy for yourself to eat. I suppose it's could be a flex to gift someone a $50 orange or a $500 watermelon.

@raymonde4272 2 ай бұрын

In the late 18th century UK the pineapple could only be grown in green houses with expensive glass and heating systems so they were such a prized item that there were companies that specialised in renting them out as table decorations for people to try and show off their wealth, of course, only the truly wealthy could grow and even eat them.

I find that in southern Ontario we can get some amazing fruit when you're in the right season for it. For example, strawberries and peaches are extremely sweet and juicy when they're in season.

What makes it more expensive is the R&D effort that went into the selective breeding process. This could take decades! Unsurprisingly, tastier fruit is usually more expensive like Honeycrisp apples or the Sekai-Ichi apple. Sometimes, another reason could be how hard that variety is to grow.

The reason why fruit is so expensive and highly valued in both Japan and South Korea compared to the West is that both countries are much smaller and quite mountainous, so there's little land leftover for growing fruit. I believe I've also heard that the climate or growing season isn't as conducive to growing them (that's why a lot of them are grown in special greenhouses). Thanks for the informative look at the unique fruit culture in Japan! Edit: I saw a video a long time ago on the Texan in Tokyo's channel. There was an episode of them working on the husband's family's farm in the country. I believe they mentioned that a sad fact is that even though not as much fruit can be grown in Japan, a lot of it ends up wasted because a significant proportion of the city dwelling consumers prefer and will only buy extremely aesthetic looking fruit.

the best place to test taste good food products is at the auction house when the products are tested. often on special days like the start of a certain food season the inspectors will pick out what batch or wich version is the very best. the fun is as a guest you often are allowed to also just taste. and sure to be hold the farmers will all bring there best of the very best they can bring.

Farmers markets will sometimes have plates of cut fruits that the customers can taste test and decide which one they like best to buy. And one of the largest H-Marts I've seen in the tri-state area, they would cut up fruits or grill some meats for people to taste test in their respective sections. It's not quite the same as what you were speaking of, but that's the closest I can think of for 'fruits tasting'.

If you read that I have a "request" would you ever consider doing a video about public gyms ? I know that there are many in Tokyo and probably in other areas too but as a foreigner its really hard to find them ;( When I was on working Holiday I only found like 3 in Tokyo and only because I had friends who showed me but I just couldn't find any outside of Tokyo even though I did carry my sports equipment around with me. It would be cool to see some of those places and what they offer as well as some info on how to find them.

In my experience living in Korea, the very expensive luxury fruits found mostly in high end department stores here tend to be sugary sweet. Beyond that qualities vary, for example, the most expensive mangos feel almost like butter in texture. That said, I don't really exactly prefer them? I like tartness, sourness and even bitterness, it is these qualities that are usually targeted out of these designer fruits.
