A posh Windsor Castle farm shop has been slammed for its eye-watering vegetable prices amid the cost of living crisis.

It is selling tomatoes for a whopping £7.99 per kilo.

They individually weigh about 125g each.

So they cost about 99p per tomato.

A bunch of about eight carrots – 34p each – cost £2.79.

A savoy cabbage is £2.49 at the Windsor Farm Shop – a stone’s throw from the royal residence.

It backs on the Home Park and sells produce from the royal estates, Windsor Great Park as well as “locally sourced goods.”

One angry customer said: “The prices are crazy.

“Tesco in Windsor sells them all for a fraction of the cost.

“It is so expensive compared to supermarkets.

“So many people are struggling to pay for their groceries at the moment.”

Similar products cost a fraction of the price at Tesco – just four miles away in the Dedworth part of the royal Berkshire town.

A 500g pack of tomatoes on the vine costs just £1.19 and works out at £2.38/kg – over three times cheaper than the royal shop.

The supermarket sells a 1kg bag of carrots for only 65p – so 65p/kg and a Savoy cabbage for 69p.

The carrots are nearly four-and-a-half times cheaper at Tesco.

The cabbage is over three-and-a-half-times dearer at Windsor Farm Shop.

There has been a rise in vegetable prices over the last year.

The Ukraine war, high energy prices, labour shortage, Brexit, and the weather are all factors.

But the shopper added: “Even still, they are way more expensive than down the road at Tesco.”

Windsor Farm Shop and Buckingham Palace have been approached for comment.
