Adventurous Eaters: Foodies are open to trying new and diverse foods, even if they might be considered exotic or unfamiliar to others. They enjoy exploring various flavors, textures, and culinary experiences.
Appreciation for Quality: Foodies appreciate high-quality ingredients and often seek out restaurants, cafes, and markets that prioritize fresh, locally-sourced, and sustainable produce.

I know Waitrose is expensive but your shopping trip brought back memories of our UK holiday this year. We usually shopped at Tesco, Sainsbury or Morrisons. One thing we did notice, wherever we shopped, was that the variety in UK supermarkets is much better than here in Adelaide. Very disappointing with those mince pies guys considering what you paid for them !
Aren't Waitrose supposed to be the Premium supermarket? Or is that just in price not quality? Great to see Tracy out 'n' about again. Talking about singing wrong lyrics to songs, Jane had me in stitches when she was singing the song "Where do you go to my lovely" by Peter Sarstedt (Google it if you've not heard it). There's a line in that song that goes, " you sip your Napoleon brandy" but Jane was singing, "you dip your nipples in brandy" LOL
Hi Robbie & Jane , yes Waitrose is a premium shop … it might be able to redeem itself … you’ll have to wait and see 🤔😂😂
Oh that has made us laugh 😂😂 haha
Imagine Jane & Colin on karaoke 🎤 😂😂😂😂
Some nice stuff in there just need to remortgage before going in 😂
Haha very true Neil 😂😂😂
What I'm noticing in ALL supermarkets is that many sausages now have "alginate" (from algae) casings and these are really, really disgusting - totally ruin the sausages. However, if you shop around, you can find traditional sausages, with "pork casings" (or simliar words). So, if you're in a supermarket, do check the sausage ingredients on the back, to make sure you get the nice ones!!! (I just had to throw out 5 packs of Sainsbury's sausages and I wrote a scathing review on their website about them.)
Hi 👋🏻, oh that’s not good … thanks for letting us know - we will definitely keep an eye out for that 🤔thank you 🙏🏻
Very pricey shop , very rare for me to go there.❤️🙏🏼😘😘
We won’t be going again … 😂😂😂xx
Thats my local Waitrose..I only go in for their basic range and yellow stickers..🤭😁..
Don’t blame you Jan 😂🤔
I think Waitrose is too expensive for me because prices are so high I shop somewhere else 😮
Same here Lesley 😂
Good seeing you out Tracy I can't believe Waitrose is that expensive guys the food looks amazing ❤❤❤
Thanks Nat, was great to be out ❤️❤️
It is really expensive 👍🏻👍🏻
Wow, the prices there, wonder they keep open , I fill my fridge and freezer for 40 quid with Asda
I know yes Col , ridiculous really ❤️❤️
You have to take out a bloody second mortgage to go shopping 🛒 in Waitrose 😅guys ... good content though and you Look miles better now Tracy Xxx
Hi Susie , I know yes 😂😂
Arr thank you 🙏🏻❤️ xx
Did you get a loan from the bank to shop there 😂
The twins would love the pies
Ha ha remortgaged the house 😂😂😂
The mince pies are awful 😢
Never shopped at Waitrose as there aren’t any near us, but, after seeing your video don’t think we’re missing much! As you say, if it was in Liverpool it probably wouldn’t do good business xx ❤
Hi Kath, no you’re missing out at all 😂😂
It wouldn’t last long that’s for sure ❤️❤️ xx
Give them to the food bank x
We ended up warming them and had them with cream …. 😅😅
Think I’ll stick to Lidl good video 👍
I don’t blame you Loretta ❤️❤️
I like Waitrose, normally in Canary Wharf & Stratford Westfield next to Olympic Park. Only been in a few times, plus Kensington High Street (after Sainsburys/Tesco vanished) for a snack. Food is better quality than Asda
I'm going after Howie's Haggis in Tesco for £2.50 end Dec. Gonna drag a load of goodies back from Dudley. I've done a main shop there once & I wasn't impressed with the quality of the pastries/desserts
We definitely won’t be going again .. did you see how little we got for £40 …😅
@@TracyandColinTheFoodies Yep, I generally use it for snacks in London (less choice down there & they're all spread out)
👍🏻👍🏻
Tracy: "Me! Pushing a trolley!" LOL
What does "higher welfare" beef brisket mean? and why does everything say "too good to waste" on it? 😂
omg, I do love Pieminster!
"Haggis in a hurry" lolol
HA HA, Colin making the piles in the kitchen!!! "rubbish pile, good pile, DOUBLE GOOD pile" And then Tracy starts switching the piles around.
Ahhh, singing Depeche Mode! A man after my own heart. 😍
You guys need to do a Lady and the Tramp thing with a mince pie! You each start munching on opposite sides of one and then meet in the middle! DO IT
Haha… could you believe it ? 🛒 😂😂
We don’t know … 🐄 very well looked after cows 🐄 🤔
Haha, the piles 😂😂😂 , the song is on the Waitrose advert here in the UK 🇬🇧 😂😂
Colin would eat most of it .. 😂😂😂
I love Waitrose, their Essential own brand is very good quality and reasonably priced.
Glad you enjoy Waitrose Charlotte 🙏🏻❤️👍🏻
Im from Formby orginally, now in London
That’s a long way from home Susan, Merry Christmas 🎄
MacSweens Haggis is the best, its really nice.
Ah ok thanks Kirsten ❤️❤️
I’ve never been to Waitrose don’t think I will either at those prices. Even the reduced there having a laugh Tracy you keep your eyes on your melons 😂😂I mean lemons keep Colin’s hands off ❤❤😊
Hi Mary, haha 😛 no we don’t recommend it .. I don’t think it’s “cost of Living friendly “
Haha .. melons , lemons easy mistake 🤔😂😂❤️😂❤️
Waitrose is dear and col tracy the boss lol
Of course I am Gary 😂😂😂
Loved seeing you both shopping again Waitrose can be expensive but their budget Essentials range is competitive.
This was an interesting shop, some things seemed really expensive for some things.
You two with your banter are so funny 😂 Home back to your place. Colin so funny putting food into categories, lol! 🤣
Mince pie. Filling sparse, nothing special. Don't diss those lemons, lol! 😂 Mice pies not good. 😶
You two appreciate good food and are always honest. 🥰
Thanks for this. We laughed, Cheeky Colin again 😂 Waitrose = no thanks.
🤓🐶🧔
Hi Johnny, yay it was great to be shopping 🛒 again ❤️
Interesting yes , an absolute eye opener 😂😂😂 the mince pies were awful 😢
Thank you 🙏🏻 glad you had a laugh 😂😂
❤️🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
@@TracyandColinTheFoodiesWe are sure it felt great for you too be out shopping, you'll be so tired but it's all relative 😂 Yes an eye opener. |Pity the mince pies were so bad. 🤢
A pleasure, yes we had a real laugh. 😂😂
🤓 🐶🧔
Yes it was lovely … hmm Waitrose … 🤔🤔
Glad you enjoyed it ❤️❤️
Yes, Waitrose didn't impress any of us this time 😐
We loved it, thanks. 🤓🐶🧔@@TracyandColinTheFoodies
❤️❤️
Oh dear Tracey and Colin, I was screaming at you both not to buy those mince pies, especially two boxes with only four in ! You know the best mince pies, the Co-op, give them a try if you can x
Hi Valerie, they are awful pies …🥧🥧
We don’t have a coop close by but if we travel out near one we’ll defo try them ❤️❤️
Waitrose mince-pies were delicious last year (2022)! I taste-tested the mince-pies from about 4 supermarkets. (Can''t remember if I tried the Co-op.)
Well these ones were awful 😢
you'd think they would put one in Liverpool instead of some satellite town! why not have it in the main city
Haha Gary , I don’t know how well it would do in the city centre …??
@@TracyandColinTheFoodies Well that's the problem i'm sick of Liverpool having this bad reputation! that we are somehow Poor or don't deserve a waitrose or we are not in the demographic or something like that yet they go to a boring little nowhere place like Formby cos it's supposed to be "posh" Liverpool should have everything!!
That’s very true Gary, I know we said it wouldn’t do well but M&S does .. and I suppose we should be allowed to decide weather we want to /can afford to shop there ❤️❤️ well said Gary ❤️❤️
@@TracyandColinTheFoodies Liverpool should have everything! I've even wrote to the Mayor i never get a bloody answer though! he's useless I've got some brilliant ideas as well
Keep trying Gary you never know 😛❤️
