A famous local product is momo ichigo (ももいちご, 桃苺, literally "peach strawberry"), a type of strawberry which is renowned for its juiciness (hence ) retails for very high prices – a large strawberry can sell for upwards of 500 yen (over $6 at 2011 exchange rates).[1] Various sweets are made using it, such as chocolate and mochi-covered strawberries, and Häagen-Dazs Japan sells Momo Ichigo ice cream.
