Are these dollarydoos? I mean it's cheap even if USD, damn, here we can really just get it delivered, and then it's like 20/25€ per person kind of thing for run of the mill sushi. I think some of the more expensive supermarkets sometimes have small boxes but these are gross and not that much cheaper.

Still, I'll always remember checking out the sushi stand at Mexico airport and figuring out after checking my conversions that they were 7/8$ PER SUSHI! I stopped complaining about my local prices after that.

I was gonna say where in Mexico would they charge that much, but an airport is always the priciest place for the most mid of meals. But I like how big Chinese and Japanese food has gotten in Mexico last I visited. Got my fill of sushi and enough to take back to others for 15 USD and it was delicious. I always buy snacks or meal before getting to an airport, those prices are always robbery.

Yeah I've only been once and I was way too busy being extatic about tacos to think about eating anything else but local stuff while I was there. These sushi and that stand actually looked really nice, which is why I was checking it out, but yeah I'm not about to drop Michelin star restaurant kind of money for airport sushi.
