Fruit Cocktail, Again -_-

One of the things I most love about travel in Japan is staying in hotels and eating tons of fruit for breakfast. The cost of fruit in Japan being higher than I was used to back home plus the rising prices of everything mean that I don't orten indulge in as much of the fructose rich fresh goodliness at home.

Unfortunately our recent trip to Nagoya and the surrounding areas saw us staying at hotels which only offered this for fresh fruit, though I will admit one of the places also had lychee.



I am sure that canned fruit cocktail is signifigantly cheaper than fresh fruit and maybe fewer people with bother eating it, but if I'm desperate enough for fruit, I don't mind scarfing a bowl or two of this stuff. I do this partially because I need the fruit intake and don't mind the cocktail, and partially as revenge. If the powers that be think cheaping out here means people will just eat less and save them more money, they are at least wrong about this specific foreigner.

Are you still seeing fresh fruit at hotels during your Japanese travels?
