Quote from: "zaqrack"cheap camambert start at 0.6EUR/100g
average quality (President, Tihany) cost around 1EUR/100g
quality ones: 4-8 EUR/100g

so the gap big between them :(
Verification made on my last food shop ticket : Reo camembert costed 2.93? for 125g.

President only 1 euro ? While it's 1.5-2 euros in France ? Strange... Maybe it's not exactly the same as we have in France.

G?rabon is better than President... for me. Sorry.

Don't be sorry, President is not the best camembert.

On the other hand, salaries are quite high.

Norway is a good place for cheese enthusiasts. Some of the local types are delicious (my favourite is Jarlsberg, similar to Emmentaler), some are strange (like Gudbrandsdalsost, which should be eaten rather as a dessert). And there is a big selection of imported cheeses even in some smaller shops, which would be impossible in Hungary.

I thought I would complain a bit about the prices, but after Zak's post I can't. Here the simplest ones cost 8-9 EUR/kg, quality brands are around 15 EUR/kg, and even specialities are below the psychological limit of 200 NOK/kg (27 EUR/kg).

After all, I don't suppose cheese prices are in any way indicative of the general price level in Shanghai. Dairy products are especially expensive in China because they don't produce them locally, as far as I know. Milk is also ridiculously expensive.
But we can't be quite sure.

Not indicative at all, but still all foods are quite expensive. Fruit/vegetable is the only thing comparable to Hungarian prices - but of course the selection here is much broader! Fresh mangoes, mmmm :)
