Having run out of bay leaves, I decided to pick some up at one of the street booths, downtown. I was already in the area for some other things, and thought I might get a better price than I would find on the supermarket's jars of spices.
When I asked the guy how much they would be, he said L20 ($1.06) per bag. That sounded reasonable to me, since a regular, McCormick jar only has .18 ounces of bay leaves, anyway. Thus, I figured it would be a small, plastic bag with about the same amount.
After I gave him the go-ahead, he opened his source bag and started STUFFING bay leaves from it into a quart-sized plastic bag! The result: for my $1.06, I got 3.4 ounces of bay leaves - about 18.9 TIMES more than in a spice jar!
So, maybe it's time to make some more soups, or SOMETHING. They certainly do have a great aroma, though!

If blueberry muffins have blueberries in them, what do vegan muffins have?
