Title: If you enjoy eating onions, don't stop by PH
Post by: theking on January 13, 2023, 07:29:17 PM

The prices of onions have soared in recent months in the inflation-hit Southeast Asian nation. Onions can now reportedly cost up to 25 percent to 50 percent more than beef and pork, and cost about three times the price of chicken.

A kilogram (approximately 2.20 pounds) of onions can reach as much as 600 Philippine pesos (approximately $11) in local markets, according to reports. This is even higher than the Philippines' minimum daily wage.
