Price Comparison?

Tesco_261207Tom Raftery posed an interesting question to accompany the photograph he placed onto his personal space on the photo-sharing website, Flickr.

See if can you spot the numerical error made in one of their European stores by the U.K. Supermarket giant, Tesco...

Since when does €2.39 for 500g = €19.92 per kg?
Can anybody suggest a reason how they arrived at €19.92 per kg.?
