Just got back from a supermarket in a small mountain town in Austria. Everything is better than in the UK. The veg, meat, the lot. It's not more expensive.

I think British people just don't have very discerning taste when it comes to food. Our produce is shit because people put up with it.

Interesting.

Cost is something I always notice in France, and have also noticed in Italy. Yes you can buy wine and whatever random local specialty at a shockingly lower prices (eg oysters in SW France), but overall I'd say a shop is cheaper in the UK.

To clarify, I find that by weight things are more expensive but packets tend to have smaller quantities of nicer things. Quality over quantity.
