An individual commented, “An American living in India and would love the occasional comfort food.” Another posted, “Hahah! It’s like us buying paneer for $18 here in the US.”
A third argued, “I’m not sure whether you are doing the right conversion of dollars to rupees. $18 is approx ₹1800. I don’t think there will be those expensive strawberries.” Answering, another expressed, “Those are US imported ones, it's around ₹1500 in Hyderabad foodstories. It's not the local seasonal one. That would roughly cost ₹300- ₹500 during strawberry season.”
Explaining his video, Dye told Hindustantimes.com, “I know the reason they’re so high is that they’re imported (and it was from a more high-end grocery store).”
