A basket of fresh strawberries here in China costs 60 RMB (~$8). Local minimum wage is 21 RMB/hr ($3). That’s ~3 hours of work. In the US, a carton of $5 strawberries is 30 min at minimum wage. Same fruit, vastly different purchasing power.

Looks delicious!! 😍
Do strawberries grow naturally in China?
I didn't know the Chinese were paid in Right Mouse Buttons, good on them for using commodity money 🤔
Grow them yourself and the return on investment will be much more even across locations with similar climate.
And you will not have to eat them half-ripe.
OK, it's not a solution for everyone.
