Surely not in NYC. No clue where she's from but prices in the video are standard for NYC so obviously that store is not the most expensive supermarket. She should go to a fancier supermarket in Manhattan, or even just Whole Foods.
atleast your not in the florida keys when we go up to the walmart whenever heading to miami it seems dirt cheap legit a small bag of cheese is over 10$
You’re trying so hard to hate when i look at each comment you write in the comment section. 💀 She getting what she likes. Literally she can get those bagels cheaper elsewhere so it’s better that she spent $6 on yogurt compared to $8 on bagels. Not to mention how the yogurt is plant based and a good portion. That a deal especially when most plant based yogurt are expensive. Let’s not forgot how she literally said she wasn’t counting so she probably wasn’t trying to go over $100 and she was just getting what she liked while trying to not spend over the amount.
Bruh this is why I do Natural grocers or Whole foods, and I thought their food was unreasonable. 🤦♀️ Thank you for your pain for our entertainment and curiosity.
this erewhon place makes the prices at whole foods look like the grocery outlet bargain market, that's not including when whole foods does their deals of the week!😂😂
When it comes to fruit I just buy the 3lb frozen blend at Walmart cost ranges from $11-$15 depending on the blend…off brand is about $8…. It doesn’t go bad it’s already cut and great to top oat meal or anything really also just a great frozen healthy snack instead of ice cream and there’s no peeling and waste besides the bag itself… my kids just poor it in a bowl and eat it and I don’t have to peel or cut it and it’s a pretty good variety of different fruits
Ive been doing this for decades to the point its a staple of my diet now. Sure I will occasionally buy fresh if its in season but frozen is convenient, cheap, and commercial flash freezing locks in the flavor and nutrients. I eat for pennies on the dollar compared to most people apparently, and im extremely healthy. It works.
That’s literally the cost of produce in South Korea 😩 I buy $10 strawberries weekly, watermelon is like $30 here for a tiny one! Mangos run $10 a piece… I’m so broke
I’m surprised the cherries weren’t more expensive. Over here, a pack with cherries less than that would run you $12-15 in season 👀 I also went to Walmart the other day and saw these firm nectarines and put 5-6 of them. Went to check out and they were $13 💀 it’s almost summer time, why were they so expensive?!
Those are pretty standard prices in NYC. Strawberries totally are $10 now, even at a very average supermarket in a cheaper neighborhood. Organic milk is $8, two chicken breasts ~$10, salad mix $5+, limes are 4 for $2, avocado $2-3, etc. Cherries were always expensive.
Coming from a New Yorker who’s lived in New York his entire life this is completely wrong strawberries have always been around 4-5 dollars in your standered grocery
This is exactly what I came to look for😂 I spent AUD$25 on a kilo of Tasmanian cherries several weeks ago when they were still in season, and the quality was no where near that of hers
The reason the store is expensive is so rich people in LA don't have to shop with poor people. Also, they probably vet and bin their fresh goods (produce, deli, bakery, etc) better instead of just going for whatever is cheapest.
I keep seeing this trend and let me tell you it’s annoying as hell. Most of the “unique” foods that are shelve stable can be found for cheaper at whole foods or sprouts. The produce is ridiculously expensive for no reason. The only reason to go here is for the quick service counter and to get pressed juice or soups that the store actually makes. But grocery shopping here is crazy
As an American thats not necessarily true. My state does not add tax to produce and unprepared food items. The price on the tag is the price I pay just like in Europe or other places... BUT the state bordering mine DOES add tax to food items. Thats the whole reason we cant have a unified tax included on sticker price system, because each state has its own governing entity and sets its own laws.
Why do people pay $20 for Jam when it’s literally soooo easy to make at home 😭 I’ve been on a “make everything at home” kick and some things are soo much easier to make than you’d think!
if it's an item not unique to Erewhon no point in paying more for it if it's cheaper elsewhere. Many of the same brands and products can be found elsewhere.
The price markup there is crazy for the same things at a different store you should do the same thing but at the cheapest grocery store well the cheapest one close to you and compare them that would be awesome
if i shopped there i would only buy stuff that’s unique/hard to find at other stores. like i’d only buy special snacks or drinks that aren’t commonly sold anywhere else, i wouldn’t buy basic stuff like honey, bread & yogurt or fruit that you can just get cheaper elsewhere. it’s a waste of money
That's all stuff that you could buy at a regular people's grocery store. At least the take-out, though consistently recognized as mid, could be seen as a substitution for restaurant food.

My local store stopped letting us bring our own stuff in the pandemic. 😭 We can finally bring our own reusable grocery bags, but not anything to dispense the actual food in.
Erehwon is a Certified B Corp though so (I’m hoping) that means the extra cost is going to ethical wages to all employees, environmentally friendly practices as much as possible, and pitching in to support social issues. It’s still difficult for most people to shop there though so I hope at least more people who can afford to spend their money at these B corps instead of other stores
Used to work for Erewhon, they don't give employees any raises of any kind. They throw away freshly cooked food if not bought because "breakfast is over" we were written up if we tried eating any of the food. Boycott this place
From the videos I've seen, the only reason why this supermarket seems expensive is because people don't know how to shop it. The bagels you purchased for $8 you can get at Whole Foods or somewhere else for $5. That supermarket should probably be used for their specialty items only. Like the soups, bone broth, some of the produce and things like that.
They sell the majority of those brands at big chain grocery stores and for less. I don't understand the appeal. What are the needs or wants filled with that store?
The 10$ strawberries is a way better deal than the option you picked for the quantity 😂
Literally what I thought lol
Literally like I know the stores expensive but her purchases were just stupid as well
Thats what I thought
True !
@@jobeee11 I don’t think the idea was to get as much as she can though, she was just grabbing what she likes.
Yeah I’ll stick with ALDI.
Same I like my knock off fruity pebbles ❤️❤️❤️

Don't do her. We're gonna enjoy all the knockoff snacks from Aldi and still have some change left at the end of the week
Same. Or Lidl.
@@IAmFunCutieSoftMan The Aldi off brand fruity pebbles are actually better than fruity pebbles. Not even joking 😂
$8 for Dave’s Killer Bagels?! They’re $4 at Ralph’s! What in the world!
Is even more expensive at other stores
Dave’s bread is full of unhealthy bs
People pay the premium to not have to shop with us regulars 😂
It's $7 most places in California
Surely not in NYC.

its funny the rich people go there to get away from the masses but the masses are going there because its trendy. I love it haha
Hahahhaha looo
That what I be paying at Walmart for the same amount of stuff these days 💀💀
💯😔
no really lolol what happened to the good deals n prices, it’s not just inflation tbh
I’ve never been rly able to buy groceries from Walmart here in Canada 😭shits so expensive
Loll why I thought almost the same exact thing
atleast your not in the florida keys when we go up to the walmart whenever heading to miami it seems dirt cheap legit a small bag of cheese is over 10$
so no to the $8 bag of bagels but picked up TWO yogurts for $6 😂
The yogurts were 2.69 each for such a large container that’s a good price for organic plant based yogurt.

Absolutely ridiculous, I’ll continue to buy the cheap shit full of pesticides and wing it. 😂
😆😆😆
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Even if I was rich I would still be shopping at Walmart.
Walmart doesn't have a wide enough selection but i would for certain things
or just stick to whole foods
She actually wasn't going for expensive stuff. She was going for the cheap items.
No such thing as cheap items in this store 😂
average canadian walmart
for real. wtffff

@@itsmylife4395 that depends on time of the year, at the time I watched that video strawberries were ~$10
the way that she was surprised for the price when where i live the normal is more expensive than this 💀 i hate my life
Bro most of the prices match prices in canada 😭
Here in Australia it’s now $50 for one bag of groceries!

Honestly, with inflation it look like the price of normal groceries where I live

It's organic, but then you put everything in it's own plastic bag. The environment says Thank you...

Most expensive. Then there’s my local grocery store where the prices are the same as the video
The most relatable erewhon video
Gotta try the peanut butter!
thats just normal hawaii prices
The fact that here in hungary these are the normal prices nowdays is crazy
Well these are the normal prices anywhere these days💸

Literally every grocery store in Canada 💀

Yk that didn’t look tooo bad but I would still rather go to Walmart for my groceries
I wouldn’t buy anything that’s refrigerated at Walmart. Avoid the meat .
my family spends 100 at walmart 😭
big family struggles
😩 your talking Canadian groceries prices at a discount store haha
if it's an item not unique to Erewhon no point in paying more for it if it's cheaper elsewhere. Many of the same brands and products can be found elsewhere.
I can by all the EXACT same stuff (brand name and everything) for less than $40 at my local grocer.
You're making awesome content, keep it up!

Harrod’s grocery store in London is the world’s most expensive grocery store.

That's a smaller version of my WEEKLY grocery trip! Ridiculous how much food is even at pretty regular stores!
Since when was erewhon the world's most expensive grocery store?
You should do the same thing but at a Walmart or regular grocery store to see the difference $100 can get at different stores
i love erewhon but it’s like $20 for a smoothie😭
That's all stuff that you could buy at a regular people's grocery store. At least the take-out, though consistently recognized as mid, could be seen as a substitution for restaurant food.
It's the same prices everytime I step foot into Whole Foods
You only got like 15 things and it was $91
In my country fruits tends to be that expensive in every store
Me: Babe this is really expensive
her: i know my worth
That’s the video I came from lol
This was me shopping at TRADER JOES in VA last night😭😭😭😭😭
Consider no plastics for you fruits and veggies. Bring your own bag or paper bag for those goods!

People complain about this store but this store is meant for a certain type of person “wealthy” that’s why the prices are crazy!
daves bagels for that price is ridiculous
Everything cost basically twice as much as they'd cost at an average grocery store. But these are probably just the reasonable ones.
That amount of food should probably only cost you $40-50
If strawberries cost $10 then as a dude obsessed with grilling, I'm just wondering how much a brisket would cost
Erehwon is a Certified B Corp though so (I’m hoping) that means the extra cost is going to ethical wages to all employees, environmentally friendly practices as much as possible, and pitching in to support social issues.

It's giving grocery store in rural Alaska prices.
That's R1900 in my country 😮 could buy a whole month food and eat out at a fancy restaurant... That's crazy
$20 for good healthy jam :( $650 for head phones (:
Yeah I’m sticking with my Aldi and Publix.
Great video! But you should’ve just brought those strawberries 🍓 over those “fancy mushrooms 🍄 “ If you were gonna spend the $10 bucks anyway. Lol 😂

That's the normal prices where i live in Philadelphia 😭😭😭😭
yeah, here in Brazil U$100 would get you FAR, but R$100 barely gets you ANYTHING.
OMG! I Love Inna Jam. We used to buy it all of the time before leaving California. It only came in 8 oz jars and was about $10. That was 10 years ago.
These are honestly pretty close in price to Southern Ontario prices. Like at least where I live 😢😢
At the most casual supermarket by my house every thing is more pricey than that😂
Crying realizing its not much more expensive than my food at my regular grocery store for regular people
ngl prices arent much different to regular supermarket in NZ or Australia
“How unique some of the stuff was”- the cart is filled with stuff you could buy anywhere else for half the price
only supermarket left in CALIFORNIA
verry inclusive
Her voice is SHAKING when reads out those prices😂
This is definitely not the most expensive grocery store in the world. This is the most expensive in the U.S. maybe.
Food is pretty cheap in the United States thankfully . The American south and Midwest are pretty self sufficient.
@@jonkiyosaki6600 no it's not
The quality of the food is probably really good though. I treat myself to more expensive treats from pricier stores like this every now and then.

When the prices are erewhon are the same as Costco prices in Hawaii 😅
$14 for cherries and $10 for strawberries is what one pays in The Bahamas
That’s crazy I get groceries for 55$ for a whole week! But also where I live food is a lot cheaper than in the us.
I don't understand how this business can possibly survive
Not that different to everyday grocery stores in Australia…
Most expensive grocery store is in Barrow Alaska
You can get Dave’s bread at Publix for 4.60 😂
Hell nah, in slovakia you pay maximum 1 euro/kg for potatoes
These are basically the prices in the UK atm
