    Jim and his grocery store Jungle Jim’s, has done a lot for the community in Ohio. Because his team picks an amazing amount of variety of foods from all over the globe. Those who have immigrated here can find the food they’re familiar with and feel seen. Americans can also open up their taste palettes and learn about other countries. I’ve been coming since I was a kid, and it deserves the recognition.
    Edit: For those replying to me and complaining, your qualms about immigration have literally nothing to do with my comment. This is about normal people just wanting some familiar groceries. Like when an American goes to a different country and is happy to find American food. Y’all are so disagreeable, it’s sad. To make this overly abundant positive thing into a negative takes a lot of talent and energy, I will say. Sheesh!🙄

      was hoping for a comment like this, thank you. Personally I visit this store quit a bit, and I'm not too far only in Indiana. I go there with friends or gf and it's always a good time, I either find something new or come back for something really good that I found the last time. I really like how this store has brought together so many people of different cultural backgrounds by providing them an easy way to feel at home on the other side of the ocean.

He may be tough but he’s put all his heart into it for sure. I think this influencer underrepresented the success it has. I mean it’s practically a mall these days lol, a food mall.

    This is the best store EVER! Especially if you're an immigrant and you're looking for food from your home country. They have everything from German, to British to Indian to every Asian food you can imagine. Thier produce department is off the chain. There are fruits and vegetables there that I've never even heard of. They have a liquor store that is by far the largest and most diverse I've ever seen. Their bakery is insane. If you're going to go, and you should plan on it being like a field trip because you will get lost and you will be there for hours finding foods that you've never even heard of. It is amazing! Add to the fact that every single person that works there is probably the nicest person I've ever met in my life!

A couple contauners of deliciois sushi, a couple bags of Tutku cookies, a six pack of butterbeer, a slice of penaut butter fudge pie, a chunk of parmigiano reggiano. And it's pretty decently busy, I think this youtuber must have been at the Fairfield location early in the AM. I feel like Eastgate is busier and that in general it's pretty busy at both stores between 11am-6pm

    I’ve been there when I was 9. My uncle told me that I could pick anything out in the store for dinner that night, and he would prepare it. He mentioned they had catfish steak, and that sounded interesting. I picked out a catfish from the tank, and the worker put it on the scale. The fish flopped around too much to get the weight of the thing. He grabbed a mallet, and smacked the fish 3 times,killing it. I was horrified. Once the fish lay still, he laughed and said “he sure ain’t floppin around no more hahaha”. And to this day I remember every detail of that moment.

      ​@jaybirdcirca1988 people from three states come from hours away to shop there just because of the odd things you wouldn't imagine selling. Foodies like me love that an hour and a half away I can get just about any exotic food I would ever want to try. The produce section does have an area called the "scratch and dent" with discounted produce that is getting past its peak but I've never seen anything exciting in there. Just tomatos, grapes and all the usual produce. Never anything exotic or different. That stuff is what sells and why people come to the store. The normal food is a bit overpriced for stuff you can get anywhere.

  • @thehobbyist8874

    As a person who's actually been there several times. It is amazing. It's about the size of three Costco's put together. Literally anything you could possibly imagine is there. They import a lot of stuff. He's also forgetting about the podcast room that they open the display. Jungle Jim's also has multiple chain restaurants in the grocery store itself. And also has multiple chain, restaurants and other stores on the property. Basically imagine a mall but it's all owned by one company with one store brand and restaurants. This place is a must visit it is so cool. It's not run down at all, The animatronics and stuff like that are neat but not overly creepy. And it's really really cool to visit and buy anything you want.
