You think groceries are expensive where you are? In Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan, a bunch of grapes sold for 100,000 yen Monday. That’s $920! The new variety Ruby Roman grapes are the size of ping pong balls and sell for an average of $248 a bunch. Link -Thanks, Jee!

    Ping-pong ball sized? That seems like too much grape for me.

    They seem much bigger than ping pong balls.
