      I guess it really depends on what you’re into.
      I live in cancun Mexico, and generally my choice is to shop a local markets for all my produce and I live supporting local. I like going to the grocery store close to me that is in walking distance. BUT I will say I the hotel zone there is a really beautiful grocery store that in itself is a very enjoyable. It’s a curated grocery store. It’s not necessarily more expensive that the same stores that are closer to me. But I WILL pay the money for the taxi every once in a while to go.

    In the 1970's i lived in Boston. There was a health food store called Erewhon. I wonder if that was the beginning of the store?? Or it was owned by someone else? It was a very small health food store where vegetarians could find seitan and tofu easily. Supermarkets did not sell stuff like that. It was expensive for the time.
    I would love you to do a haul where you price the same items at a cheaper store. Also I would love you to do a copycat of that smoothie for those of us who can't get to an Erewhon.

It’s where I get my normal baking items like flour, sugar, salt, chocolate chips, etc and all my spices by weight and as a kid you’d go and get candy and snacks for parties and stuff.

    Honestly seeing Erowhon as a “specialty” store, wher you go to buy different or in-house items like that peanut butter and smoothie! Or if you want a luxury cut of meat to cook by yourself instead of opting for a fancy restaurant, it makes sense! But not necessarily for regular weekly, or monthly groceries.

    • @zesolodar

    • @pinkrose8272
      @pinkrose8272 5 місяців тому +1

      Or just go to a store that focuses on international food and imports to get speciality stuff. My city has a huge one where you can buy stuff from around the world including plenty of healthy stuff from all the health trends, along with diverse and yummy processed food and snacks from everywhere. They have 2 different delis there, a fantastic fish market and one of the hugest selections of fresh veggies and fruits from everywhere including a good amount of organic stuff (for those who like that). And the best part it’s way less expensive. Like it does depend on what you get. But usually at the very most it’s just a big under Whole Foods but usually way less. So you can actually do all your shopping there.
      And if you want to shop locally support smaller grocers instead or seek out a recipe and make it yourself or find someone who specializes in what you want. There is no need for Erewhon all you get there is aesthetics.

    I was born in 1978 and our little local grocery store had a peanut butter grinder and it was AMAZING
    You’d push a button and get as much as you wanted and it was sold by volume.
    Same with coffee beans.
    They also had fresh squeezed orange juice and lemonade. It wasn’t pasteurized so it tasted like you made it at home.
    That store is still there, you can have an account and they keep a paper ledger, I lived across the street and they let me have my own cart as a kid because I came EVERY DAY. My mom and I never knew what we wanted until that moment so I’d run over, ask them to put it on our account and Bing bang boom grab the BEST food.
    They sold tons of locally made breads and cheeses.
    Milk from local farmers where the cream floated to the top.
    Big logs of fresh made butter they did in the back…they sell honey from local beekeepers who have an apiary across the street at the community garden.
    Yeah, I never realized how completely awesome this place was.
    I assumed it was normal, I also can say yes, I grew up in a very wealthy area so folks had no issue paying a bit more bit…it was a well known that organic was better.
    My mom and I had hens and they’d sell our eggs if we had extra.
    My great grandparents had a home farm, they sold some foods but mostly farmed to provide for themselves and the family.
    I got to run a little stand as a kid when I visited and I loved picking the prettiest strawberries and veggies to wash up and package adorably to sell.
    People always paid me more than we asked because they appreciated the effort. My great grandparents were French, she had been a pianist, he a luthier and over the years as they acclimated to the US they developed a strong distaste for excess, waste and capitalism 😮
    They usually traded/bartered for things they didn’t have.
    Apples for peaches, eggs and cheese for pork and beef.
    We had frogs and rabbits to eat…they kept their cash in mason jars in the basement 😂 and they were LOADED because they stopped spending money in the 1960s.
    They bought their farm cash, did all the work themselves, invested in alternative energy in the seventies allowing a solar panel company their back portion as test area in exchange for the power, and they paid for a windmill but ended up getting money back from the electric company.
    They planted all these native species and soil retaining plants and got rebates. They also had some deal with the government and trees they’d planted.
    I wish I knew details, they lived to be 100 and 101.
    My great grandpa got passionate about organic farming in the sixties, years before I was born and if I could talk to him now I’d do anything to ask him to share his knowledge.
    They lived a quiet, simple life and they lived WELL. No stress, no anxiety.
    They had greenhouses in case things were too wet/too dry, too cold, too imperfect.
    I know they were able to trade with the local store as well. They would give goat cheese in exchange for sugar and spices.
    I’d go in with it.
    God…I haven’t thought about this for so long :(
    It’s simple, people should maybe…go full force?
    I recognize a movement to be self sufficient and whatnot but adherents are so hardcore and competitive it seems.
    A total black and white all or nothing attitude? Selling all personal possessions to move to a piece of land and just farm farm farm for profit.
    Artisanal stuff, when in all reality we could do a lot of variety. Forget monoculture.

    It’s interesting because I felt like several of the produce item prices, adjusted for currency differences, are similar to what I pay at my low end/cheap grocery store where I live in Canada😩 and I don’t live anywhere remote or particularly expensive either. Like I’ve definitely seen little bundles of carrots like that for $3-4 (Altough I buy the big bags of ugly ones for $2), cilantro is definitely the same price, Apples were quite similar, I don’t eat zucchini but I think we’re doing about $1-2/lb on vegetables like that right now so also similar. Very interesting. Some of the other items I’d equate to your typical higher end grocery store here, so it’s interesting that this is considered almost ultra high end. I love seeing shopping trips like this, it’s cool to see the differences as well as discover some similarities☺️
    I could see, if it’s important to you, something you enjoy and can afford, purchasing some of the house made items from them. The bone broth was definitely worth it, that stuff is time consuming as well as energy consuming to make and the end result is definitely worth it.

    Such a fun video! I personally think some of the prices aren’t that outrageous; the bone broth (like you said; gas, time, whole chicken and bones), peanut butter ($5.88 at Walmart now for a smaller jar of natural organic in Las Vegas), and that beef. I was surprised anything was $1.99 (taco seasoning). That said, the apple was so expensive, goodness! More of these videos please! Great to see you making content again! Beautiful white sweater btw!

    ^ occasionally I go to this store just to find new healthier items I can’t find at Whole Foods or elsewhere. It’s way over priced for many things but in the LA area you got people who are super rich so this store caters to them and those who only shop at this store. Me I go to multiple stores cause I like different things at different places like Ralph’s, Whole Foods, TJ’s…. But let me tell you the options at London food stores are 10x better than the US. Loved there for a semester for uni and was blown away at the store options and also the premade meal options!
