How much did I just spend on vegetables at the market? I spent 125 Baht ($3.87 USD) for enough vegetables to cook two meals. Broccoli is 100 Baht per kilo ($3.10 USD) and I got 2 ears of corn for 25 Baht ($0.77 USD). I told the lady to give me 50 Baht ($1.55 USD) worth of shrimp and ended up with eight medium sized. Overall, this will give me two meals at an average of 100 Thai Baht ($3.10 USD) each. Shrimp and vegetables for three bucks? Yep, I’ll take it. Plus, I’ll show you a chicken kebab that costs 65 Baht ($2.01 USD). For lunch at my favorite little local spot, I usually spend $3 USD all in. My cheapest meal of the week was fried chicken and rice at $1.38.
