I've been on a 3-year search and was looking at Southeast Asia but it just didn't quite feel right. I'm coming from Canada and this video almost makes me want to cry. Paraguay is going to be an intense focus for me now for the next couple of weeks.
Wow. And that’s a small supermarket? Wow. Love the video. Hope you all can do a few more in 2024. I’m trying to get my wife interested. She’s a visual learner and will definitely watch videos.
Can you please do a gun store walk around next? I'd be interested in seeing what's available there and the prices, and laws regarding importing, ownership and carry license etc. Cheers!
Saw another vid where they briefly spoke about guns. They are double the price than what you would pay in the USA. Mostly from the Czech Republic, Israel and Turkey. USA will not sell arms to Paraguay.
Spent three months in Argentina. Looks like Paraguay's supermarkets have a much more complete selection and variety of foods. Maybe reflects Paraguay's more capitalist based economy?
In the U.S. beef and any red meat in general has gotten so expensive that people are really avoiding buying it. In most grocery stores, the red meat section has shrunken a bit, since the beginning of the pandemic. More pork and chicken are sold. Beef is still available, but it is much more expensive. (About the only place where you see the beef trade to be the same, is Costco.) But, this is having a secondary impact, as well. In restaurants, beef dishes are significantly more expensive and some places have found ways to get it out of the menu. Thai restaurants make more larb (a meat salad) with chicken, rather than beef. Vietnamese restaurants increasingly serve chicken pho. A 12" steak and cheese sub sandwich typically costs about $15 now. Even in fast food, you can see the impact of higher beef prices. All dollar menu burgers are gone, since the pandemic. At McDonalds, the old $1 double cheeseburger costs between $2-3. Even the ~$1.80ish "McDouble" (with two beef patties) comes with only one slice of cheese, which is their way to cut costs and maintain the basics of the product. Finally, a couple weeks ago I heard that beef inflation has even impacted Home Depot and other stores that sell BBQ grills and equipment. Fewer people can afford to grill red meat. The market for grills is declining. So, the emphasis you guys take with the beef on these videos is really relevant for those who are trying to find better food prices. Thanks!
Most likely the US imports the meat you eat from Paraguai or Argentina so you ought to know if it's tasty!! The difference is that in Paraguai as in most South American countries it's fresh and in Europe and the US it comes out of freeze houses where it could have been stored for a few week, months or even years!
6:25. I absolutely loved the comment, "if you come from a socialist hell hole like Australia". Literally tax on your tax in Australia 🇦🇺. It is not governments role to micro manage your buying decisions through taxation and regulation. The West is no longer best unfortunately.
Both, tap water is usually fine. Maybe you get a stomach ache once or twice a year at first then your body adapts. Most of the population drink the tap water. I buy bottled water because of the brand and it's pure. Won awards before for most purest, chemical free water in the world. Gond Wana
what about biodynamic/organic food agriculture in paraguay? Are there many options for this at the supermarket, do you they typically use various agro-chemicals such as pesticides on the food?
Depending where you shop. Beans or instant will cost more or less. Depends on the supermarket. In the wholesale warehouse bulk style supermarkets. 20-30% cheaper and in the upperclass supermarkets like casa rica for example, a few dollars more expensive
Coffee I buy in Brazil, much more cheap like Damasco and Pilão. Strained of course! Pilao 500g around U$2,80 in Brazil, I buy one carton box when I go there.
Don't forget that Paraguay is a poor country yet, you will find bad places here also. Also think about climate, super hot in summer and today 28/05/24 cold , maybe 10°C. For sure there is no perfect place in world.
6:25 Absolutely loved the comment: "If you come from a socialist hell hole like Australia". 😂. It is so true.
I looked up the price of that hendricks gin because I dont drink alcohol, its 45AUD in Paraguay, in Australia its 86AUD, nearly half the price...
what an amazing food industry Paraguay has . It's all good . The Beef section at Superseis is my favorite 💯

Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for posting. More videos like this would be cool.
More to come! 🙌🏻❤️
Best video on Paraguay as of late. More like this please.

Prohibido la portación de armas ,ni recomiendo tener en casa problemara..
Te recomiendo buscar la tienda Camping 44 en UA-cam ,es una de las tiendas de armas que puedas encontrar en la capital .
Desde que reúna los requisitos y sigan las leyes del pais, NO es prohibido el porte ni la pose de armas em Paraguay, Es un pais libre

Excellent video. Can you do some other walk around videos in Asunción?
Yes, we plan to make many more vids this year💪🏻
Fortín is not ron it is "Caña" as spanish caña, Nicolás García a spanish was the first man to produce "caña" in Paraguay as was super common in Spain.
From what I have seen, beef liver is only around $2 (US) a kg. That's a great deal for grass-fed/finished beef liver.
A very specific cut of offal, but hey, each to their own.
Those steak prices are insane❤ Is the meat tastey though??
Very!
Better than argentinian
Muchisimo mas sabrosa que la carne argentina,

@@classesanytime certainly fresh here. And not pumped full of water or dye or chemicals.
Kurupi is the representation of paraguayan's promedy

Thank you for this.
You showed the bottled water, but I'm curious. Is tap water safe to drink in Asuncion, or do you need to buy bottled water?
Thanks

Does paraguay convenient store have gift cards?
Sadly gift cards are not common here
Best price on alcohol is $0.0 because not drinking it is best for your health and for your bank account.
100% agree
Amen!

I like how you convert to US dollars, but not US weights 🤣 we don't do kilos bros, it's pound town up there.
Australia, socialist he'll hole he said ,that is so true.

O Brasil devia anexar o Paraguai 😊
