I am interested in figs. I saw them from an American TV series about the Rome nobles. Here there are not figs in the markets or supermarkets. We have some dried figs instead and we use them to make the soup. I like it since it is sweet. But I personally haven't eaten the fresh figs yet. I wonder whether it is an expensive fruit.

No, it's not an expensive fruit. We have plenty of fresh figs in Italy, I also have a fig tree in my garden. Now it's early for fresh figs, they are ready to eat from July.

@LadyDuck Today many foreign fruits are imported and I wonder why there are not figs.

@youless You can find fresh figs in almost every southern European country, the best figs come from Greece and Turkey.

I am not sure how much it costs, I think it's relatively expensive because it's a seasonal fruit like fresh strawberries or cherries (they have a high price as well). However there are many fir trees in Greece, my parents have some in their garden so they usually bring me fresh figs and other fruits. I think you will like the fresh fig. I love berries but fresh berries are not very easy to find over here.

Here the cherries are crazy expensive. Since my son is a food picker, and he doesn't like some fruits as kiwi fruits, durian, cherries and so on. Normally I just buy oranges, apples, watermelons, pineapples, bananas which he like to eat.

@youless They cost around 6 euros per kg over here which is a lot but they are seasonal fruits so you can only buy them fresh at the end of spring. All the other fruits are very nutritional too and they are available throughout the year! I also like making smoothies and add 2 or 3 different fruits!

@besweet The cherries are perhaps double expensive here than in your side

I think we have fresh and dried figs in the supermarket, but I seldom buy them. If the price is lower, I will buy.

I like figs and have eaten them..they are not too costly..this fruit you have here this Rome nobles I had never heard of. Here, they like to hybrid fruits..they are much too costly here for me in our circumstance. I do not know any fruits of foreign but I would always be willing to eat them

@youless There are many fruits here that are a mixture of two fruits combined, grown like that. Here is an example of some various ones youless:
Hybrid fruit is the cross breeding of two breeds of the same genus or between different species. Have a look at the list of hybrid nutritional fruit facts.

Perhaps you will have a higher chance to eat it than me. As I can't see it here at all.
