May may be a paradise for all food lovers. This month, the first seasonal fruits and vegetables appear in stores and markets. Seasonal and – most importantly – national. That is, they are tastier than imported ones and are available in supermarkets all year round. The first Polish strawberries, although still a bit expensive, are very popular among Poles who miss the flavors of summer.

They wanted to buy small, local potatoes. The sellers were surprised when they responded
Super Express journalists went to the market in Konobnica near Lublin in search of local delicacies. They found radishes at PLN 3 per bundle, baby cabbage at PLN 4-8 per head, and asparagus at PLN 11-15 per bundle. They also noted that the price of small potatoes is PLN 5 per kilogram. As stated in the seller’s description – local.
However, a moment of thought was enough to come to the conclusion that something was wrong. Because the first half of May is definitely too early for Polish potatoes. One question asked to the seller was enough to clarify everything.

“National, because he comes from a country”
– No, it’s not Polish. But local, because they come from some country. I have already started growing potatoes from Romania, and they are almost like ours. The merchant explained that it was made from Polish potato seeds.
Seed potatoes are tubers of different types of potatoes suitable for planting in the garden. However, this is probably too short to be able to call potatoes sold “local”. No wonder, after hearing the seller’s answer, the journalists of “Super Express” stopped in their tracks.
