Moldova's Food Prices Spark Debate: Is It Europe's Cheapest Country?

CHISINAU, MOLDOVA – A recent online video has sparked considerable debate by showcasing the cost of various food items in Moldova, with the creator labeling it 'the cheapest country in Europe.' The video, uploaded by user 'sheeya,' details prices for common meals and snacks, converted into Polish Zloty, providing a snapshot of daily expenses. According to the video, a plate of scrambled eggs cost 9 PLN (approximately 2.25 USD), while a portion of mango from a market was priced at just under 5 PLN (around 1.25 USD). An iced coffee was listed at approximately 8 PLN (2 USD). A more substantial meal, chicken soup, cost 15 PLN (3.75 USD), followed by a slice of cake for 13 PLN (3.25 USD). A pastry purchased from a store was the cheapest item at 2.50 PLN (0.63 USD). While the video aims to highlight Moldova's affordability, many online comments questioned the 'cheapest country' assertion, with some users suggesting other European nations offer lower prices or stating that the presented costs were comparable to their own countries. This discussion underscores the varying perceptions of living costs across different regions.
