The apple in question was bought from an unidentified branch of upmarket store Whole Foods
But the Whole Foods website suggests the apple would have to weigh 28 ounces to cost $7
'The size of my palm. I thought it was like probably two to three dollars. I scanned this motherf***er I scanned it, seven f***ing dollars, seven!'
She said she checked with store staff to make sure there had been no mistake and was assured that she had just paid the correct price.
'Genuinely what economy are we all f***ing living in that it costs seven dollars to buy an apple?' she demanded.
'I could have sworn that some other like apple that I bought was not seven f***ing dollars. It's crazy, like seven dollars for a latte? OK.
'This apple better be tasting so f***ing good.'
The video, which has since been deleted, sparked some skepticism with the Whole Foods website suggesting the apple in question sells for $3.99 a pound.
