food and drink non alcoholic beveragesHow much does a white strawberry cost?
Also know, how much are white strawberries?
The rare strawberry is known as the Shirou Houseki variety, or White Jewel, and sold for 1080 yen each. Cultivated by a single grower from the Saga precinct, Tejima-San cross-breeds between varieties to produce the White Jewel, and limits their exposure to sunlight.
In this regard, why are white strawberries so expensive?
Because of the labor-intensive growing process, white strawberries are far more expensive than red ones. One strawberry could be sold for $10 USD.
Red strawberries begin as small white flowers that turn into pea-sized green berries. Because white strawberries lack the protein that results in pigment and which is responsible for strawberry allergies, it is likely that a person with such allergies can eat white strawberries.
