I honestly don't think that $50 for 2 people is a big stretch especially with the mix of processed and fresh. We spend $100 a week for our family of 4. I laughed so hard when Chris is choking and Jasmine starts dancing
What a great haul for only $50! Very impressive. I love Hippeas. I got my first bag in a vegan cuts snack box subscription that I received for Christmas. They are amazing! Would love more videos like this one.
I totally agree. The avg / wk to spend per person should be about 25$/wk. Super easy to do with a smidge of effort. **NEW VEGANS IN CANADA** Our sugar (Red Path and Lantic) is vegan.
VERY INFORMATIVE VIDEO WE ENJOYED IT SO MUCH WE SUBSCRIBED MUCH LOVE FROM A VEGAN COUPLE! TOASTED FLACKERS SEED CRISPS! YES! AND OATMILK IS AMAZING:)ALPHA NUGGETS ARE THE BEST! IN THE OVEN! YUMMMM, WITH SIRACHA SAUCE AND SOME VEGAN MAYO MIXED ;)
Already voted for Sweet Simple Vegan in the Veg News Poll as I subscribe to Veg News. Always enjoy your videos and agree about Winco being a good store for bulk items. They are budget friendly and are offering more vegan items now which is good.
Definitely just voted for y'all 👍 Love from Mississippi Being Vegan in Mississippi is NOT easy lol 😂 but would never go back. 9 months strong Love yalls videos
I HAVE SAID THIS BEFORE, BUT I HAVE TO SAY IT AGAIN. I LOVE WINCO! YOURS HAS A DIFFERENT SELECTION THAN MINE BUT I STILL LOVE IT. YOURS HAS SUPER COOL OPTIONS LIKE THE SMOKED TOFU!!!
Voted for y’all! Have been watching so many of your videos lately as I transition. You make veganism so approachable and casual but still informative- thanks!
Excellent video and haul. Agree with the comments regarding almond milk which I am going to buy less of. I will instead buy soya, oat, coconut milk and other plant based alternatives.
If your WinCo has paper bags for mushrooms use them. That's what I do it's against health code in Oregon to use your own containers most stores don't enforce it but some do.
@@ahhitskatie9094 I was quite surprised too when the store I work at at the time had to start enforcing it . That particular store had paper bags at the bulk bins because it was in area where more used resuable bags and containers.
Planet Oat is by far my favorite plant based milk. My local Giant Eagle just started selling an Unsweetened Planet Oat and I like it even better! Love it in my coffee and over my rolled oats and fruit in the morning. the best part...it doesn't contain any oil, and it does contain Vitamin D and Calcium.
Just voted for you guys. Thank you for the education about the oatmilk I was not aware about the almond milk I will not buy almond milk any longer I'm going to change to oat tomorrow.
I just bought two almond milks. I won’t after this at all. I was buying soy. I’ll be moving to oat now! Appreciate all of the rad info. It’s not overwhelming or confusing. 🖤
Thanks for sharing! I'd love to see a video on how to cook the black beans from scratch. When I try, I struggle to get them creamy and don't know what spices pair well.
I stopped going to my WinCo were we live because of so much crime. There was just a shooting couple of weeks ago in front of it. But they do have great prices.
Not sure what you guys are like off camera but I find you absolutely adorable as a couple. I just began a plant based diet per my oncologist's suggestion in 2020. Thank you for all of your information. It's been very helpful. I voted for you! ~Love from the East Coast
Hey jasmine, since you don’t drink caffeinated coffee there are alternatives to coffee that taste just as good, without the caffeine :) look up Pero and Roma
I wish I could find smoked tofu in the states! I keep seeing it from Canadian vegans, but I haven't ever seen it here in Colorado. I want to try it so bad!
I remember a video that The Vegan Zombie did, he mentioned that Domino sugar is vegan as long as it was processed in the Yonkers, NY location. That is an older video, so that information may be useless so it never hurts to call and ask! I only mention that because I know Domino sugar is very cheap!
Sorry for the confusion 😅 we got everything at WinCo for slightly under $50, and mentioned that we had a few items at home already. (The right foods soup, flackers, hippeas, chocolate, and avocados!) didn’t mean to be misleading! We also do have the receipt if ya wanna see it 😂
I don’t know how you got all this for under $50. I don’t live far from you guys, I’m out on the coast and my grocery bill which is straight up no snacks no processed foods just beans veggies some fruit and some rice pasta is usually well over $100.

Hey I work at a health food store called The Common Bond Market in Shelton, Connecticut and if you guys ever shop on the East Coast or go there I will give you my employee discount LOL we have so much shit you guys would love

I love that smoked tofu. I pan fry it and add it on toast with tomato and lettuce like a BLT sandwich. So good.

Apple cinnamon oatmeal! Cook the apple with the oats! So goooood

planet oat containers are so small. trader joes now has oat milk and I love it. It's cheaper than oatly too

thank you so so much! I truly appreciate it :) we love being able to do what we do here and we appreciate all of the support
Winco is also employee owned and the employees get pretty good benefits. I love Winco
You can def buy tortilla strips in little bags. I can’t remember if they’re vegan but I always see them near croutons.
Tortilla strips are usually near croutons!
Definitely just voted for y'all 👍

Dang I hope all of them get this stuff because we love it!

Loved you grocery haul. Introduced new vegan foods and or snacks.
Excellent video and haul. Agree with the comments regarding almond milk which I am going to buy less of. I will instead buy soya, oat, coconut milk and other plant based alternatives.
I live across the street from a winco and I love it!! Unfortunately the one by me doesn’t let us bring reusable bags for the bulk section though 😕
If your WinCo has paper bags for mushrooms use them. That's what I do it's against health code in Oregon to use your own containers most stores don't enforce it but some do.
Katrina Hamilton Given how left-leaning OR is, that law really shocks me!! I’d have thought they would encourage bringing containers to reduce waste!

I think winco has tortilla strips in the salad topping area where croutons are😁
you can find tortilla strips where the croutons are.
I so miss WinCi from when I lived in the Sacramento area. Back on the east coast ow and I get sad thinking about how awesome WinCo is!
New subscriber love your channel. Vote for you. Great ideas. Love your series of fast foods. Going through others now.
I keep those McDougalls soup cups in my desk at work when I forget to bring lunch. So good!
Just voted for you guys. Thank you for the education about the oatmilk I was not aware about the almond milk I will not buy almond milk any longer I'm going to change to oat tomorrow.
Love using red onions to cook. Spoils you for the other varieties though. Watched the tofurky video. Loved it a lot. Thanks

Fun fact! Winco actually stands for Washington, Idaho, Nevada, California, Oregon because those are the states that they are located in! 😁
I'm in Phoenix and I went to the nearby WinCo specifically for the smoked tofu and they didn't sell it. So I'm still looking for it.
Thanks for sharing! I'd love to see a video on how to cook the black beans from scratch. When I try, I struggle to get them creamy and don't know what spices pair well.
The only way I've found to get soft, creamy beans is with the pressure cooker (instapot).
@@greenlimabean Thanks for the tip! I've been thinking about getting a pressure cooker. This convinced me.
OMG I’ve been trying to find smoked tofu for sometime now.. I will be heading to my local Winco. Thank u
coconut sugar
I stopped going to my WinCo were we live because of so much crime. There was just a shooting couple of weeks ago in front of it. But they do have great prices.
Soyganic is a canadian brand which is why you only found it at one store. Glad you guys love them too :)
If you love sweet onions you should go to walls walls during onion season and get the sweet onions, they are so good😃 where did you guys shop?
Rosemary Armstrong I LOVE Walla Walla - seriously the cutest town!

it's the best!! haaha
Hey jasmine, since you don’t drink caffeinated coffee there are alternatives to coffee that taste just as good, without the caffeine :) look up Pero and Roma
Omg your groceries seem much cheaper than where I live. This would probably come in at just under $100 in my city
They have them in the bulk bins! AND they're tri-colored!
I voted for you guys ! When I saw you were featured when I voted yesterday I literally squealed I was so excited for you!
Chris facial expressions are thee best lol
I love our local WINCO , shop there mostly all the time except for a few items that I can’t find there .
"We just got a new compost bin...its badass."
😂😂😂 love it! You two are so cute! ❤️❤️❤️
Another great video!! Thank you for all you do for the community.
Show us your compost bin !
One coffee, one apple, give it 10 minutes 😂😂😂
Weird because healthy vegans eat so much fiber they don't need that meat eater technique for bowel movements.
I just adore your videos! Also, I love your ninja turtles t shirt! So cute! And I’m really excited for more recipes! Xo
Made sure to vote for you as best vegan blog.
thanks for the very informative videos, love watching you guys
Voted for you guys for the best vegan blog!

I didn’t see you guys on the veg news thing so I didn’t vote but I’m going to try and do it again!!
it was question #37
I need to check out WinCo now
Do you just feed berry the black beans alone, or do you mix them with something else?
Probably mix it with other things, idk if a dog would eat plain beans 😄
yes !!!!!
I appreciate Chris's tip for staying "regular." 😹 seriously though, thank you!
spent a solid minute staring at Chris's head wondering why his hair looked like hat, then realised it is a hat I'm a blind dummy lol
Nah, I did it too- just trippy
lol same
He's into the hipster look
Just voted!
I love coffee 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼Chris ☕️

I found Waldo! 😂
I just learned about the sugar thing that’s so crazy!
Lol 😂 Hipster Waldo
You need to chew up the greens to get the most benefit, not letting the blender do it for you
Why
@@blakea.e.1681 All of your saliva while chewing has important digestive enzymes
I can't find smoked tofu in Austin :(

This is a Annette and I want to see your receipts cause that looks like more than $50 of food. Did Bob that come from WinCo (LOL).
Annette Sanders love these guys but same. I don’t buy any processed foods and I can barely make it under $100.
Sorry for the confusion 😅 we got everything at WinCo for slightly under $50, and mentioned that we had a few items at home already. (The right foods soup, flackers, hippeas, chocolate, and avocados!) didn’t mean to be misleading! We also do have the receipt if ya wanna see it 😂

Jasmine I love your shirt #ilovebeingaturtle
thank you!! one of my favorite thrift finds 😊
Not a fan of the taste of canned corn frozen cobs are a little tastier or fresh preferred.
Heyyy
Have you heard of monkfruit sugar?? Is that vegan??
It is from what I've seen
That's a good amount of stuff for that price..
Does anyone else finds it annoying when Chris makes that noise at the end of almost every video he is in?
