The people who said the US doesn't have much fruit or veg were people who only went to convenience stores, not supermarkets.
Or went to small town walmarts the walmart in my next town doesn't have as much of a choice as say the one in the big city ie Dublin ga vs Savannah Ga. Savannah walmarts are huge
That was my immediate thought, too. That's a problem in low income, crime-ridden neighborhoods. All the regular food market chains just abandoned those areas due to high criminal activity (gang fights, etc.) outside their buildings and theft, unruly patrons and similar issues that made it not worth their effort to be in those areas. Convenience stores are smaller and so offer less items over all. It makes little sense to take up limited shelf space for items that can spoil so quickly.
It really depends on where you live. I used to live in a neighborhood in Brooklyn with awful fresh produce options, even at the grocery stores. I had to take a cart on the bus a few miles away to get my weekly groceries
I was thinking that as well. Or possibly someone living in a food desert.
Food deserts are a bit of a myth. Food pantries, food banks, and hot meals are available even in low-income areas. Many children in Houston, where I live, eat both breakfast and lunch for free at school, and some schools send home food for the entire family for the weekend. We also continue these food programs in the summer, when school is out. 🤠
Lewis - remember that the USA is an agricultural nation. We grow a huge variety of foods. We also trade with growers worldwide. You want it - you can get it in America, even in a small town. Meats, fruits, veg, breads, oils, sauces, pastas, grains - you want it, we sell it. Our population is diverse. Our country caters to that.
Foods grown in a certain region are usually cheaper in that region. We have such a huge selection of grocery stores to choose from, I go to certain stores depending on the thing I need where it’s a better deal.
💯💯
Yeah where I live in Missouri we grow Corn, wheat etc. My father has a sheep farm. But cows are more dominant in the area as well
Oregonian here, we have beautiful farm lands that sell to our smaller shops too, even at Walmart sometimes. And what's even more wonderful is that our farms donate to our food banks. I have been on the poverty level most of my life, but I would always be so happy when I would bring fresh chicken, tons of veggies like cabbages, potato's, tomato's, strawberries, blackberries, etc. Home to feed my son. This was after a 14 hour work day sometimes, lol. Also, our restaurants like Paneara bread, Starbucks, etc, donate to food banks, so sometimes we get a treat. Lol right before it goes bad, lol but still good.
@@ogkee Oregon is beautiful.
.....Walmart literally has signs above every single aisle saying what's in the aisle. If they're lost, it's because they literally are not looking up.
You can use their app also. 😂😂😂
Also they have HUGE signs for each section. Lmao😂😂😂
They're not lost they're just content creators playing it up for the camera. Do you think L3WG hasn't already seen all this stuff before too? Do you think that's air you're breathing? lol well anyway, it's hard to tell what's just acting and what's real on youtube.
There are numbered too.
Only food section has signs in my North Carolina aisles. Near the opposite side of the store far from any food there is a stand of bananas. I have no idea why.
I chuckled when she said that they got a bit carried away, meaning that they bought much more than they'd planned. Having worked at a Walmart, I can assure you that the store is designed specifically to catch your eye and entice you to buy extra stuff impulsively. In fact, they frequently relocate merchandise throughout the store. This is so that regular customers don't simply grab what they're looking for and leave. It compels you to search around for what you want in hopes that you'll notice other things to buy as well.
Like how they had bananas in a random spot....
I worked for a not profit who had a large supermarket as a sponsor. They held a “vendor-driven” golf tournament every year to raise money for us. These vendors would pay BIG money for shelving space auctioned off as part of this fundraiser. Also, as to your point, there’s a reason things like fun, sugary cereal is placed on the shelf at the eye level of children versus the adult shopper.
I hate this so much
Yes very true
Ngl when they move stuff around it makes me so mad i don't want to buy anything extra so their plan is stupid
"Its hard not to get distracted"
You literally just summed up Walmarts whole business model 😂😂
That’s why they have almost no windows and super bright lighting! It’s like casinos - they actively try to prevent you from noticing the passage of time
I went in one time to get new headphones and pick up some sodas. Wound up buying like $100 of shit I didn’t really need and when I got outside I noticed 5 years had passed and my wife remarried 😂
@@azrigal87 that made my day 🤣🤣🤣
"it's not like it's a maze." Weeeeeell😅
@@desimosi579I mean that's true; it's no IKEA.
WE LOVE OUR FARMERS ❤❤❤ AMERICA 🇺🇸
I love living in Farmersville Texas....
Walmart is NOT a grocery store. It simply has a grocery section. And an automotive section, and a nursery section, and a clothing section and….
Well... except for Walmart Neighborhood Market...
There are both kinds, a walmart supercenter is what you describe with everything, then there are some that are just food market
theres an eyedoctor at my local walmart and salon as well.
@@nullakjg767yep, and a salon, a Subway, and a bank
@@Myssiing Yes, but the one they're at is a Super Center aka department store.
When you were freaking out about the small bags of rice and saying they were big i knew I’d have to comment haha. Here in Hawaii, or also in most Asian households in the US, we buy 25+ lbs bags of rice. It’s not uncommon for some families to finish about 3 to 5 cups of rice a day (approximately 600g to 1000g of uncooked rice)
"Wait! They go to America, and they don't eat meat?" That line made me laugh out loud. As an American, I am looking into buying half a beef for winter, although not from Walmart. I will buy directly from the farmer.
Those people are kind of idiotic....they are buying garbage that they think is "healthy"....I LIKE REAL FOOD.
I already bought mine...LOL
Same! I had to pause and laugh. We like meat here lol
Whoever told you that we don't have vegetables in our stores must have been in a small covienant store.
@ZaaZaa-d2r there is so much crap put in those foods that isn't good you. They package it to appeal to you. Your right they honestly believe their eating healthy.
Side note: sweet corn and corn, are typically two different things.
Sweet peas and peas, are also two different things.
Sweet corn is corn used for human consumption. The other is field corn and is used for animal feed. While it can be eaten, the sugar content of field corn is less. Whether it is labeled sweet corn or just corn, if it is sold in the grocery store it is the same.
@@bonnieprice8924not true. It's all about harvest time.
To be "sweet corn," the harvest has to happen at the peak of sugar development.
To be considered "sweet corn," the harvest date generally runs from about late June through mid-August and travels up through the Midwest over that time.
@@scottmenze2704 we raise both. I've eaten both at peak harvest, Ours do taste different. Of course our field corn, we let dry to harvest for feed.
@@scottmenze2704
The variety of corn we enjoy eating is called sweet corn, which does not grow nearly as tall as field corn (another identifiable difference). Sweet corn has a higher sugar content than cow corn and is picked while immature before the sugar has a chance to turn into starch. Fresh, sweet corn is juicy.
@@bonnieprice8924 actually there are 4 main types of corn.
Dent (aka field corn), Flint (aka “Indian” corn), Popcorn (this one should be obvious) and Sweet corn.
All are technically edible, each have their distinct flavors/use-but obviously some are more desirable to munch on than others.😁
21:20 What so many people get wrong about America is this very notion. If you want to eat Doritos until your heart stops, go for it. If you want to be vegan and work hard on the amount of fiber you eat every day, go for it. What Americans love having is choice. You choose how you eat, how you live, where you go, who you love. You choose, not someone else and not a system.
Right!
Exactly!
So no difference to Europe. Nobody in Germany tell us what we can eat or what not (except meat from protected species), same for France and other Countries.
If I want to have an heart-attack I could sit in a Burger King, KFC or McDonalds 24/7 - but additionally I could die drunk because I can order beer (ok at McDonalds it is one of the worst avaialable beesr in Germany) to my meals.
I can eat raw pig meat in Germany - yes some safety regulations how the butcher, transport company, shops have to treat meat that is for raw consumption (salmonella and other toxic bacteria) but no FDA forbids the consumption of raw meat.
The only thing the EU-Version of the FDA does different is that additives to food are more handled like "If you want to add it to the food, first prove that it is safe" (or oversimplified: IT is forbiden until proofed safe for consumption) vs the FDA way "Allowed until someone can proof that it kills people" (overdramatized).
@@DSP16569except they tax the heck out of what they decide is bad food.
@@DSP16569the USDA regulates meat and other farm products. The FDA regulates processed foods, food additives, and pharmaceuticals.
I love watching these. Makes me realize how much we take for granted here in the US! Also, bread is pretty cheap here, too, depending on the brand. I pay $1.75 per loaf for honey wheat or white. That Dave’s killer bread they reached for is healthy expensive stuff!
Bread is also loaded with more crap.
Dave’s Killer Bread is a favorite at my house.
As an American… when you said “What’s the point of going to America if you don’t eat no meat?” Made me laugh harder than I should’ve. 😂
I agree, we don't need any more non meat eaters coming here.
Lots of Americans don't eat meat. More do than don't.
For real.. eat the meat 🍖
Honestly though, if you don’t try our BBQ at least ONCE are you really getting the full American experience!?!? 😂 🍗 🇺🇸
We grow so much food here in the US. Plus, we import produce, seafood, and meat from Mexico, Central America, and South America... as well as export to the same.
Basic rule of thumb in America: organic and specialty items cost more. Sometimes a lot more!
Too true. Just add “organic” and the price escalates when, in fact, “organic” is highly fluid or subjective. I choose my local farmer’s market or co-op who use zero pesticides. Buy Local whenever possible. Walmart makes a mean birthday cake, tho, I must admit.
Yes, they do, but if you can afford it, it is better.
@@Valdal98 As a rule of thumb yes, but it still depends. Like if I eat an organic grape or a regular grape, I won't be able to tell the difference at all lol
@@badcaseofstripes true, but more pesticides get into your body. And, yes, I know they are pervasive, just not as much in organic.
@@MrsColumbo823 I prefer, my local grocery store bakery, those are insanely good things.
Baked beans are American. The UK love for them started in 1940 because the US sent it as part of an aid package to help feed the population during the food rationing of WW2.
Makes sense because Native Americans grew their beans with corn and squash.
I believe that they were also regularly included in US soldiers field rations.
Lol I bet there's more beans and cornbread ate in the south....than entire UK..And we actually cook our own beans not just a old can.
Our Homefront really put their best foot forward. It wasn't just the soldiers on the field, but the families back home that helped the war effort. I remember my great-grandmother kept a victory garden, even in my all-black neighborhood, in the middle of the Chicago city, we kept a garden full of vegetables and fruits. Canned goods were collected in a brown box and shipped over. My great grandmother told me she saved for postage just to do so. I loved those stories.
Yes, we used to call them Boston Baked Beans for a reason. We also sent SPAM to the Pacific during WWII which is how it became such a staple in the Hawaiian diet. SORRY HAWAII !!!
12:33 In Orlando, we don't pay sales tax on groceries, in general. However, there is tax on prepared/hot foods, I believe, such as fried chicken in the deli.
Same here in Minnesota
Clarification: Walmart is not a supermarket it's a superstore. A supermarket is usually just groceries and basic household items whereas a SuperSTORE sells groceries, toiletries, household items, outdoor Garden items, sometimes firearms or hunting kit, has a couple of shops inside like a Subway and a place to get haircuts, a picture printer and more❤
and an optometrist....maybe a dentist, urgent care, nail salon....
Clothing, lots of clothing, camping gear, Automotive Dept, including auto repairs, Toys, Pots, pans, Pharmacy, Electronics, office supplies, Pet foods, even fish (live ones to put in your fish tank).
@@kimherben7866 YES! They got EVERYTHING
It's nice. I recently moved towns here in Oregon. Moved from some tiny town where they have a relatively new (smaller than usual) Walmart Superstore. Nothing unusual inside.
I'm now in the state Capitol city and the Walmarts have fast food shops generally unavailable in the state/region. For example, they have Chick-fil-A in a WalMart about an hour's walk from where I'm living now.
I still haven't been to a CFA, but now I live by that Walmart **and** an independent Chick-fil-A restaurant. I really REALLY want some!
@@TheRtpbucAuto care, mini clinic.
Not only are our grocery stores packed with fresh fruits and vegetables, but in smaller cities/towns you can drive down the road and there'll be old guys with their pick up trucks with tailgate down with their fresh grown corn, tomatoes, cucumbers, squash, strawberries, plums, peaches, and basically any fruit or veggie you might want for sale, like a dozen of each for $5, etc! And these are farm grown by local people who do it for their own use and then sell the extra out of the back of their pick ups!
Ah, the in-season just-harvested corn bought on the roadside at ten cents/cob - glorious. One time when I was in L.A. for biz, there was a guy on the corner selling cherries from his backyard tree. We happily paid $2 for a 5# bag and demolished them while stuck in traffic.
roadside watermelon sellers my beloved🥰
Sometimes the farmers set up a stand of corn or melons, write a cost on a board and go home. It's expected that people will be honest & pay the right amount
@@darcyjorgensen5808If you ever get the chance next time you're here (though I think you should stay away until we get things straightened out here, 'cause dayum), definitely try to get some pluots.
That's right. Ya heard me. Plu(m Apric)ots.
They're so so good
@@darcyjorgensen5808And if you're around in the season, the fresh from the farm strawberries, plums (red and black), and peaches (yellow and white) are Spectacular
One thing that I noticed, they put all of their frozen and cold items in the cart first then searched for dry items. They took a long time too, that temp is going up on those foods. Dry items first, then cold items before you checkout.
Especially in a place like Florida! You've still got to get them home to the fridge!
Thank you, I was cringing over that while watching their video. The ice cream is the last thing I grab before I leave the store.
@@catt4857 I keep a large and midsized thermal bag in my car that keeps things frozen/cold for 3 hrs. Grab the cold items last, have them bag all of the cold items together, and throw all of the cold items in the thermal bag when I get to the car.
Their ice cream was probably half liquid when they got home.
@@tammycenter8757 I use to shop that way when I left home. Having melted ice cream sandwiches or lukewarm milk or cheese is not it and a waste of money.
it just goes to show brits dont know much about cooking to the point where they dont know how to even shop for food.
😂😂😂 Those watermelons were all what we call baby size. Our normal sized ones are 3 times that size 😂😂😂
The oranges were marked down because they have been on the shelf longer. They get discounted to make sure they sell. This happens often with perishable items.
it also happens if they have overstock and bought more than they can sell. In america, most produce will not stay on a shelf for over a week. it also happens if stores get better deals on select items from suppliers which is why fresh daily delivered produce can be on sale. distributors sell produce they have excess of for cheaper. it is why 1 week the same fruit can be a dollar more a pound and look even worse quality. it is about quantity orders and what distributors are trying to push in a particular week
Yes indeed, rotation. Cause if people are paying full price they will always grab the freshest over the not so fresh!
Actually those just had a hole in the mesh otherwise the other bags would have also been marked down too but you are correct for the other items such as the bread
Hilarious the issue staying focused on what you came to the store for and not looking at everything, the kid trying to buy toys… they are having a true American Walmart experience 🤣🤣
Riiiiight?!? Don’t go with a cart just get what you can carry it’s way cheaper 😂😂😂
Where I live the kids get as excited going to Walmart as they do going to a theme park lol 😂
And their confusion entering is because Walmarts have three entrances. One near food, one in the middle of housewares, and one in the garden center. They came in the middle one so that would be why they got so confused.
There's one in automotive with a cash register.
@@caragarcia2307Not all Walmart store have the Tire & Lube
Theres also one in the outdoors and garden section @@caragarcia2307
I’ve only seen the 3 entrances at the Mega Walmarts in major city populations, which is what this one looks like.
There are two smaller sized types of Walmarts that I’ve been to as well.
The Super Walmarts only have 2 entrances, one at the grocery side and the other at the Garden Center, and you’ll find these ones in smaller population centers.
The Neighborhood Market Walmarts only have the 1 entrance, and tend to be the size of traditional grocery markets, and they only sell food. These smaller markets are Walmart’s answer to food deserts, and the only places I’ve seen them have been in sections of towns/cities/country-sides that don’t have easy access to healthy foods.
I've also rarely seen 3 entrance. there's usually only 2, grocery side and home goods side.
17:50 ARBY'S curly fries are available at grocery stores and are as good as in-store, especially if you deep fry them. But fine when baked on a sheet pan to
Lol - Texas Toast/Garlic Texas Toast is Not a dessert 😂. It is in the frozen food section as you heat it in the oven & usually serve it with “Italian food” ie as a side with Spaghetti or Lasagna, or Minestrone Soup.
it's really good for making "pizza" on
Or fried in butter with eggs. Yummy
TEXAS TOAST is not a dessert. It’s served here in some restaurants or fast food places that serve cream, country gravy.
WHAT IS TEXAS TOAST?
The distinctive characteristics of Texas toast come from its preparation. The bread is sliced about 3/4-inch to one-inch thick, which is twice the thickness of standard sliced white bread. Both sides are buttered before it’s placed on the grill or in a skillet to slightly brown. This combination results in a crunchy, toasted exterior that makes a perfect breakfast side.
Unlike other breads that toast all the way through, Texas toast tends to have a soft and slightly moist interior. This can elevate the sandwich experience, taking the classic toasted club or burger to the next level. The thickness also absorbs milk and eggs easier, making it perfect for stuffed French toast.
They didn't need to convert from pounds to grams. If they look at the label, it also has grams in parentheses.
She figured that out partway through. It's just small print depending upon her eyes, plus she's not used to seeing it written that way.
we didn't convert to the metric system, except for plastic bottle sodas and drugs!!!
No to your Baked Beans! Not unless you get the Brown Sugar Bacon or BBQ Baked Beans…. Add Beef Hotdogs and come see us later! 😂
@@tmapes1989The conversions are written on everything.
Fun fact… bananas are the most sold item at Walmart. And the display they found in the ‘stuff section’ was actually strategically placed between the ‘stuff side’ (AKA General Merchandise, or GM for short) entrance and the checkout area, so people will see them on their way in as well as when leaving, even if they never go to the grocery side of the store.
Was just going to say this. Our store placements are all about strategy.
There's the most sold anywhere. This includes Acme
😊omg I wrote basically the same thing.
Too funny.
the baked beans usually has some type of pork or just bacon in it. That's why they have to use the vegetarian ones.
As an American, I died inside when they passed over the sourdough bread like it was nothing.
Well, I grew up in the deep south and didn't get introduced to sourdough bread until I moved to Oregon in my late teens. It's an acquired taste, I think, and it was not love at first bite. Of course I now enjoy sourdough, rye, pumpernickel, real whole grain (not just white bread w/ a little malt coloring), as well as our traditional biscuits (loaded with white sausage gravy!!!), sweet white dinner rolls, grilled hamburger buns, cornbread, and the not-so-English English muffins.

It *is* nothing. Bleah!
I'm an American too and I'd much rather have that Dave's seed bread they chose
@@jeanvignes ugh now i want bread why would you do this to me
I finally saw Brits in Walmart this morning. Now, I understand the "unfriendliness". They were stocking the shelves, and between that and my cart, the aisle was blocked. A guy was just standing there with his cart, so I assumed he couldn't get through. So, I skooted my cart to the side and said, "do you need to get through?" He just stood there staring straight ahead like I wasn't there! Then his wife showed up, they spoke, and they were either Brits or Scots. An American would have said, "thanks, but I'm just waiting for my wife". It was really weird.
Trust me that would not be a Scot! We are the friendliest people on the planet.
If it was someone from Britain it was probably England, although I do like English people but I have came across some really rude nasty ones who were on holiday in Scotland.
I was in America a few times and when I was going on the queen Mary an American man who worked there said there was only 2 types of people in the world, Scots and people who want to be them lol I hope you never come across this again cos it's really rude, just say excuse me and hope for the best😊🏴
@@JoGray1987 I didn't hear enough to exactly place the accent. Could have been an English subset, like Manchester or Liverpool. Hope they enjoy the weather! 40+C 😂
@@2012escapee1omg that is death temperatures! Haha I'm dying and the temp is only 20° I don't know how you survive those temps lol
@@JoGray1987 That's why we have air conditioning. Plus, it's a dry heat
@@2012escapee1 I think I'll stick with the cold weather lol
Them keeping this ice cream out as they’re going all over the store and have it out as they’re standing there in the home is killing me!
Thats what i was thinking, why are they getting frozen items first?
Right you do frozen stuff last and they threw the veggies loose in the cart not tied in a bag 🤣
We have more than regular corn. We got sweet corn, regular corn, cream corn, white corn is the sweetest etc... The tortilla was green because it was made with spinach. I love Bush's baked beans! Normally, we buy milk by the gallon and that's a plastic jug. 1/2 gallons come in the cartons. No, I'd never pay for a bag. Organic costs more here, the regular food is cheaper.
Lewis, you also have to remember that there are also spanish, asian, portugese, etc grocery stores and they each have COMPLETELY different types of foods that most americans would not normally get but adds a huge ton of variety of what you can cook. That's also true of restaurants.
Around here in the suburbs of DC, we have Brazilian, Latin American (I won't say Spanish), Chinese, Korean, Filipino, Indian, Russian, Ethiopian, and I even saw an Indonesian grocery store. We even have some British specialty shops.
@@victorialopez9717 And some of our American stores in the DC area have aisles devoted to cuisine that isn't common in America. I've even seen Irish sections.
@@benllewellyn297 That's true. I haven't been in a typical grocery store in a long time so I had forgotten about that. We do our grocery shopping at Aldi, Sams and then some of the various ethnic grocery stores.
In NYC (including boros) you have markets dedicated to international foods. We don't have Walmart (unless you go to Long Island or upstate) but by where I live there are supermarkets every few blocks. I need to shop around cuz my loaf of bread is $7.99 lol
Every time I watch one of your videos, I just want to take you under my wings and show you America!
Right!! And they say Americans are lacking in knowledge & worldly things. I find a lot of Brits.. who have direct access to all of Europe.. very naive in other cultures.
Their son is so respectful to them & so adorable. They must be really good parents
He’s probably so overwhelmed?? And Hungry!??
@@courtneypepper5798what makes you think that? because his parents choose healthier foods?
@@makadoodle7 you realize humans are omnivores right? Like yea you won't die as a vegan but you'd be malnourished and weak. You should have a mix of both meat and veggies not just meat or not just veggies. I don't really care how you eat, couldn't care less actually this is literally just facts.
Americans love to buy in bulk because it’s usually more cost effective and that’s why stores like Costco and Sam’s club are thriving!
Everybody forgets that there is also a large home and garden section with things for the garden, mulch, salt for winter, plants for sale, and all kinds of tools and lawn mowers.
I definitely buy half my spring planting stuff there 😅
Walmart has two entrances. One side goes into the mercantile side and the other goes into the grocery side. They must have gone into the mercantile entrance.
Technically 3, don't forget the garden section
Mine has four, counting the automotive entrance on the side.
5, saw one with the mini clinic.
@@kurtsnyder4752 Our clinic is inside, but your sounds more convenient
Mercantile?!? I think you meant to say the “stuff” side 😂
One thing that nobody seems to mention is that the very large sizes at Walmart are where a lot of families shop so they are saving a lot of money by buying large sizes of items,
The bags of rice are small ones. Shop the restaurant supply stores or Costco and they have all the different types in 40 and 50 pound bags
The peas they bought said sweet peas because there are other kinds, like split peas, yellow peas, or spring peas. Corn also comes in different varieties, but sweet corn is the most common. Hummus is traditionally served with warm pita bread, which you tear off a piece and dip in it. Most Greek, Turkish, or other Middle Eastern restaurants serve it.
#1 They were lost in the beginning because they don't realize, Walmart has 2 entrances. One side is the grocery side or Food, the other is Home Goods like kitchen/bedroom/bathroom and the like.
When that woman said 80 tortillas was for one meal... Ma'am, our pantry food is packed with preservatives. That pack of tortillas will last a week or more! Watermelon, you cut it up, take what you want and stick the rest in Tupperware or food storage containers and chuck it in the fridge!
With the watermelon, you can also just put some clingwrap on the open end or turn it up on a plate if you only slice off rounds as you eat them, put that in the fridge and it'll keep for around a week.
Depending on the Walmart, it can actually have 3 entrances (the Mega stores), which this one likely had judging by where they started in the middle of the store.
The tortillas she was looking at were street tortillas for street tacos, with those you need two stacked tortillas per/serving, so 4 servings=8 tortillas=10 meals (otherwise the juices from the meat will soften the tortillas and it’ll rip in your hand). Also with that brand, if you refrigerate them, they can last for months before they go hard.
With the watermelon, you can also dice it up and then freeze it. They don’t defrost well, so they don’t make good eating like it would fresh, but they’re excellent in smoothies or used in place of ice cubes in your drinks. Grapes are also great frozen too, btw.
@@Dayanaria The tortillas split from being cold, not from the juices. Toast them in a pan or pop them in the microwave for a few seconds first and they hold up a _lot_ better. It's still 2 tortillas per serving, but by warming the tortillas first you only need 1 per taco.
@@GremlinSciences I always have them warm (cold tortillas are nasty), even when they’re fresh and home made from a street vendor they still rip if I don’t double up. Only times they never rip on me is when it’s a dry meat and beans street taco.
Maybe it’s a culinary difference where I live, but you always want lots of napkins with our street tacos. Here they’re almost like more of a soup, there’s so much juice in them lol
@@Dayanaria I think you can still fix that by toasting the tortilla a bit more as/after you add the meat, but I'm not really sure at what point that might become a tostada instead of a taco.
Dude, I don’t know where that stereotype came from, because we are literally the #1 *exporter* of agricultural commodities in the world (which means we have such an excess amount _OVER_ what’s used by the nation, that we sell/ship it elsewhere). 😂
We’re def not number one but we have great produce grown in the USA
That stereotype type comes from stupid young Americans who have never in their life been outside of the US and seen anything to compare the US to but feel the need to shit talk American about everything because it makes them feel like special little snowflakes to hate on the country they live in.

I think access to affordable fresh food is very much geographical because some towns and urban areas don't have a proper grocery store. Florida and California should definitely have access to the best produce due to the amount grown there and proximity to large sea ports.
non US just hate that americans get much better food then them so they make up stuff as copium. ive had many euros tell me that america has zero unique foods and that everything we have they have. it helps them feel like they arent missing out.
We do have corn, sweet corn, peas, & sweet peas. Depends on where you shop. Yes, they taste sweeter. We have many kinds of natural corn. White, yellow, black corn, & a multicolor corn that I don't recall what they're called. These are all natural & indigenous here & in South America.
In America, depending on where you live, you can drive country roads and stop by a roadside stand full of sweet corn. Excellence that is not canned nor frozen
The Native Americans made baked beans. Baked beans are 110% American. Boston Baked beans made with ham hock, and molasses or maple syrup. They are a specialty of Boston to the point where Boston is called Bean Town. Heinz is an American company. Mr. Heinz (born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) started selling his baked beans in England in the early 1900's and opened a Heinz factory in England after WW1. The USA shipped our baked beans to England during World War II to help with British food shortages and rationing.

Yeah, but I've heard they put a lot less sugar in the British version. I'd probably like it better. Americans are mostly sugarholics.

For those that dont know... The typical WalMart is 182,000 square feet. (Over 16900 square meters for those outside the US) The grocery section is only about 1/6th of the store
That one with the folks who said they could not find much fruit or veg were in one of the bigger cities that have a lot or small places that charge a high price. so less fresh stuff.
Taxes, they get odd. in the town I live in, most food does not get a tax, but some cooked food in the store is taxed. and anything that is not food is taxed.
Walmart uses the yellow price stickers for clearance items. When it’s on bread or other baked goods, it means it’s nearing its sell-by date
Former US Walmart worker, every Walmart's selection is different depending on consumer base. I don't know how many people came in and complained that we didn't have such and such product that the Walmart just a little ways over had.
And the Banana at the beginning is to encourage compulsion buying, that's why you have what you might view as random things in places you wouldn't expect, it's all psychology. And look up for navigation, there are signs and you can use the website with the location selected if you're definitely lost. It'll typically give you the aisle letter and number if they carry it in store.
Green and red was mango, btw. The tan next the it was cantaloupe. Also, Walmart is one of the worst places to get veggies. They sometimes freeze things which reduces shelf life (some times it's even accidental). Reduced price means shelf life printed on it is coming up. Or they're getting rid of the product from the store completely. The pink potatoes was just the color of the bag. Sauerkraut is typically by the hot dogs and sausage. A lot of great value items come from the same plants with different packaging. Especially milk.
Here near where I live we don't pay for bags. Texas also doesn't have food tax. Your list would get you a similar price here. Meat is expensive overall.
Also a former Walmart worker, and in our store (as well as most I have been to) there is a small display of bananas in the "stuff section" for those customers who don't wish to walk the the grocery section, which is usually on the opposite side of the store.
Yep , sales tax on food varies from state to state & if you’re in a state that does tax food, sometimes it’s just on certain types of groceries.
Water too, my plant has bottled everything from Great Value and Kirkland, to Office Depot and random gas station brands.
Ohio also doesn't tax food or non-alcoholic beverages. Indiana doesn't tax food but they DO tax drinks.
We have red potatoes, which are denser and less starchy than their white counter parts!!!
And this one episode shows why we say "Don't listen to that German girl". That girl went straight expensive and lied about several things.
Don’t listen to that German girl, she chooses the wrong stores.
Is that the Feli girl, or someone else?
Not true
The German girl that doesn't like our cheese and bread?
Exactly...we don't have handheld showerheads, either, apparently.
That is the Kissimmee Walmart in Orlando! It is particularly big because it’s in the main area for people vacationing to Disney and Universal Studios. You’ll notice when the walk in to the right a huge theme parks merch area lol. It’s also home to a lot of Puerto Ricans so during the holidays you may see a Paranda celebration inside. But mostly you get a lot of tourists and families at this location so a perfect stop for them!
My Dutch wife and I went to the grocery (small ones, only 23 aisles for America) and spent three hours going through what she recognizes and what she was curious about. It's worth it for visitors to see what a variety can be found here. Her best exclaimation? When we got to chips section she yelled "What is it with you and cheese here??"
We love cheese and putting cheese on everything!!!😊
Behold the power of cheese
It just comes out of the farms. We gotta put it somewhere!
The US government pushes dairy products because dairy products weren't selling good, so they pushed propaganda that dairy is super healthy for you. And they try to implement dairy as much as they can in your life. They even put posters in schools that say "got milk?"
At one point we had so much milk that the government made it into cheese and gave it away. Government cheese has a special place in some people’s hearts.
There are so many people who say that we don't have fresh fruit/veg or real bread and every time I laugh because of stuff like this and huge bakery sections SEPARATE from the sandwhich bread aisle😂
Sounds like Feli who also thinks we don't have movable shower heads
I've noticed that pattern and it strikes me the European doesn't realize the huge variety of everything and so we have different sections. There's a bakery but also a bread aisle. There will be tortillas there too but also some in the International foods section. Cheese is in the dell but also there's a cheese section. If none of that suits you you can find a specialty shop around the corner. The default thinking should be "they have everything, we just have to find it...maybe even ask."
@@piratetv1she rents in the most cheap places of Cincinnati then says we don’t have shower-heads on hoses. I was like, no you don’t because you’re renting from someone that gives the basic necessities to cutdown on costs. I told her stop being cheap and go buy one herself and put up they’re only $25 for a cheap one.
I think he saw comments on food islands here in the US and made the common error of applying that to the whole nation. Most places have access to stores like this, but we have a few areas where the very poor can’t reach such a store and rely on crappy corner markets.
Shop the perimeter 🎉
“Can’t leave it there for that..”. That right there is the spirit of Walmart 😅😂
Inner city stores have less veg than suburban stores due to the cost of building space. City stores have high rents per space available so they have fewer choices. In the suburbs or outside of cities there is lots of space so huge stores and grocery stores with lots of veg and all foods.
That cucumber they bought - we call that an English cucumber. They're longer and the skin is much thinner and more delicate than American cucumbers, so you don't have to peel them. That's why they're wrapped in plastic: to protect the skin from being ripped and shredded before they reach your table.
I don't even peel the American cucumbers. There is literally no need to for most recipes and you actually lose nearly ALL of the nutrient value by doing so. Most of the nutrients and vitamins in a cucumber are in the skin - by peeling, you're basically just consuming water. Just wash thoroughly to get the pesticides off and chop.
@@swedishshortsnout5610 You're perfectly correct. I peel off alternate stripes of skin - so it goes skin me, skin me not, skin me, skin me not, and so on - before slicing for salads, because we like just a tiny bit less bite.
I thought they grabbed a zucchini.
@@rclip213They look similar, but zucchini’s are shorter, thicker and deeper green compared to cucumbers, and they are very different between texture and taste.
Cucumbers have smooth slightly waxy skin, and a lightly sweet cool melon-like taste, with crispy, cool texture (this is where the phrase “cool as a cucumber” comes from). Whereas zucchini’s have a slightly bumpy and prickly skin and a woody stem still attached, they have a mild flavor with a grassy type taste, with a spongy texture.
Cucumbers are typically served raw in salads or as a snack, whereas zucchini’s are cooked in stir-fries and casseroles.
Biggest difference?
They’re both a type of gourd and are technically a fruit (although we treat them like a vegetable), but the zucchini is more closely related to pumpkins and squashes, while the cucumber is it’s own family but is more melon-like.
@Dayanaria Thank you. I know the difference between cucumbers and zucchini. I've never had an English cucumber, though. I was just saying it looked like a zucchini to me. I usually only buy traditional cucumbers. They're shorter, thicker, and aren't wrapped in plastic.
Hahahaha 😂😂 I was laughing so hard watching this video that I actually had tears in my eyes!! 🤣🤣 Only in America!! Hahahaha 😃 We take all of this for granted. We are SO spoiled here!! Actually, we are so BLESSED in America. 😃
Grapes are sold by the pound. You can get a loaf of sandwich bread for a dollar. Those tortillas were green because they’re made with spinach and our baked beans are a lot more sweet. If you want cheap, you can usually find pretty much anything in the stores brand, for example at Walmart it’s called great value.
Occasionally also Sam's choice, just depends on the product.
When going into a Walmart, the front of the store is where you find the main checkout registers. Groceries will be on either the left or right side of the store, and everything else (collectively called general merchandise, GM for short) will be on the other side and in the middle. The back middle of the store is typically where you find the electronics section (TVs, computers, tablets, gaming consoles, movies, etc). Produce and the bakery section is almost always located not just on the grocery side but toward the front of the store on the grocery side. So, once you enter, look left and right to see which side you entered on. Also, outside the entrance, the grocery side says grocery above the entrance for most Walmarts. That is not always the case as some Walmart are built in locations that have aesthetic requirements that prevent the use of such signage, or they are older and haven't had a recent enough remodel to add that.
6:19 - “What is this?” A mango. “What is that?” A honeydew melon. They are delicious.
I think it was cantaloupe 😊 honeydew is green. Definitely a fan of both! Melons are one of the best parts of summer!
Mango is a MUST TRY! Add tajin and lime and it’s out of this world!!!
I didn't know British people ate vegetables and fruit😮!
Dave's Killer Bread is expensive, but worth it. The company helps put former inmates back to work and pays them a reasonably good wage. I'll buy some on occasion.
I recently started buying it. It is more expensive and thinly sliced, and slices are kind of small, but so delicious and healthy. Didn't know about it's employees. Cool!
And then Dave killed and went to jail, right?
@@Julie-sz2zv they have thinly sliced and also regular sliced
Yeah I like buying Dave’s bread and Homeboy Industries because one is for ex- cons and the other helps get gang members out of gangs and trained into useful fields and might get them before they go to jail.
I didn't know that! I'll buy it now. 😢 Some repeat offender happen becs they can't find work. This solves problems!
Walmart is the only grocery store that displays bananas close to every entrance. No matter what state, the bananas are guaranteed to greet you at the door.
Only if you go into a store Walmart and use the grocery entrance.
Bro if they think all that is cheap I wouldn’t survive in the UK with home cooked meals 😂😂😂
nah, heb does that too.
Not mine…we have a 10 ft by 10 ft four tier pyramid display separating produce and bakery area.
Bananas are their top selling item.
Lard is animal fat rendered down then cooled off and then packaged its used to cook certain foods it adds loads of flavor
regular cow milk are generally in plastic gallon jugs, more specialty milks are in cartons
not always... some midwestern states also will sell milk in bags. I will say I haven't seen milk in bags at walmart though.

In USA the baked beans are a side dish with dinner. They are usually in a maple based sweet sauce or in a tomato sauce with bacon bits.
What some don't realize is that's not JUST a Walmart it's called a SUPER Walmart, There are Different sizes of Walmart depending on the area.
Insta Pot is a pressure cooker and it cuts cooking times by half..... AND it forces the flavor into the meat and potatoes and what not.
Taxes are different in each state. In California fresh food and uncooked foods are not taxed. Beer, wine alcohol, stuff like that or precooked food from the deli in the store are taxed.
In NY, pretty much the same. Anything prepared is taxed too; soda pop, TV dinners, etc. Juice is weird; if it is over 50% real juice it is not taxed.
In Arizona and Georgia everything has sales tax added to the bill and depending on what it is the tax rate is different. In New Hampshire they do not have a sales tax added at the end. Instead the state uses higher property tax and other taxes. To fund the state. These are the states I’ve lived in and I know there are Few other states that also don’t have sales tax.
Same in texas. Unprepared food is nontaxable.
In Ohio food is only taxed if it’s a restaurant that you’re actually going to sit down and eat in. Even take-out at a restaurant is not taxed.
Michigan doesn't tax fresh food. But not to be confused with fresh bread or stuff like that.

'Texas Toast' is actually a size cut for the bread slices... it's double or even triple the thickness of a regular slice of bread. usually wider and taller as well... THEN you can put garlic butter (and some times cheese) on it to make 'Texas toast' garlic bread (or cheese bread). this is NOT a desert but a side for a meal... like a slice of bread with dinner.
I bet it'd be liked in the UK, lol. They use toast for everything and they all seem to adore the concept of Texas too. 😅
To expand on this - TX toast is egg bread, not white bread. And you’re right! Brits love bread. Plain white bread with butter was served to me as an appetizer at a high end hotel in London. It was good!
A lot of restaurants use Texas Toast to make "french toast".
@@5stardave That explains why when I tried to make french toast, it was soggy: slices weren't as big as Texas toast!
Texas toast is just garlic bread
What is a very great shock to many British people is the Fact that their beloved "CHIPS" or Potatoes are not NATIVE to Great Britain or Ireland or Scotland or Wales or France or most of Europe really! They were brought back by the early explorers to the USA and Southern Americas and Parts of Russia after trading with various tribe of indians and it was found that you could cut one potato into 20 small chunks that under earth will become 20 more full size potatoes thus they became a farm food staple
Price per once is usually on the tag so its easy to spot what is a better deal.
Just so you know, for when you visit here, all food has both imperial and metric mesurements on it. If you don't know pounds/ounces, the grams/kilograms weight is in smaller print right next to it.
Yes, except the U.S. has never used Imperial. I remember seeing Imperial when I was a kid and we visited Canada, but we use the U.S. Customary System.
It's pretty much the same for weight, but volumetric measures are quite different even if they have the same names.
@@alanlight7740the U.S. DOES use Imperial. "Only the US as well as its former colonies Liberia and Myanmar (also known as Burma) still use the imperial system almost entirely. The UK (plus its overseas territories) and Canada use both systems in parallel. Most items show both scales, one for the imperial system, one for the metric system."
@@Yeetin_Peas - I don't know what your source is, but it is incorrect.
Both the U.S. customary system and the British Imperial system were developed from traditional English measures. As a result units of weight and length are virtually the same in both systems, but units of volume are significantly different as the U.S. based its measurements off the wine gallon and the Imperial system used a different gallon.
Also, Myanmar/Burma was never an American colony.
Both unit are on all packages. We only half care what the rest of the world uses. The American attitude.
Walmart did not originally carry groceries. It was always a “stuff” store. Eventually they added a huge grocery section to certain stores. Over time, more and more stores became “Super Walmarts” which are the ones that carry groceries.
I thought all Walmarts carry produce?
@NikkoOnRoblox prior to the early 2000s walmarts were only regular walmarts and didn't not have a grocery side. They transitioned to super markets and added the grocery side. Now I believe all walmarts are either supercenters or neighborhood markets(which is only a grocery store)
We have literally everything you could want. Our farmers are a huge part of the backbone of these stores. Greatest country to exist bar none - best parts of all cultures living togther.
Definitely not the best country ever.....
Not even close.
lol I want to see someone do a shop like this at Winco Foods. Walmart is my “order food when I don’t want to go shopping” back up. Winco is even cheaper (but Walmart is cheap too).
Refried beans are cooked twice; not really fried twice, but cooked twice. First, the beans are boiled, then they're mashed and "fried" (but really pan sauteed). They're popular in Mexican, Latin-American, and Tex-Mex cooking.
When I started my son on baby food my husband and FIL decided it was a great idea to let him try Blue Bell Ice Cream homemade vanilla. After that,he wouldn't touch baby food with a 10 ft pole. I had to find light,soft,things that he would eat. He practically lived off of refried beans with cheddar cheese melted in it. Lewis,I'm not sure if you've ever had Taco Bell.

I grew up assuming it was normal for everyone to have their phones on them while at Walmart in case anyone got lost. You could spend an hour walking the aisles trying to find someone, only to realize they gave up and went back to the car.
American here: Watching your reactions in amazing. There is a Walmart where I live that is not only that big, but then it's two full stories with an elevator, an escalator for people, and a separate escalator for your shopping cart. When I go there, it subs as my cardio day at the gym. Lol

Also in Orlando all the stores are like part Disney gift shop. You will find Disney stuff everywhere cheaper than the actual Disney gift shops.
4:05 what she said here is actually part of Walmart's business strategy. It's known as impulse buying. Basically, customers come in to get specific items but leave with more than what they were going to buy because they got distracted by all these nice items conveniently placed right in view.
Yes, and most of those impulse buy items are unhealthy. Sort of like alcohol once was for the colonists versus the natives, these impulse buys are something most Americans have built up a resistance to, but newcomers have not.
All stores are designed that way. It's about mental engineering.
No sales tax on food in Florida. Every state is different in that. I'm from Florida and moved to Nashville, TN like nine years ago and about died that there was not only sales tax on food but $.10 to the dollar. Absolutely crazy!
As heatherwilkerson8596 says, sales tax policies and rates vary by state and the rates can even vary slightly from county to county or between cities! Some states will have exemptions for groceries like Florida, or for clothing, or for medicine and medical supplies. Some higher additional taxes are applied to gasoline, tobacco, and alcohol (spirits, wine, and beer).
@@petseeker even on tobacco and sugar. Soda and tobacco in New York is absolutely insane because they put such a high tax on both. I'm not sure but I think New York has state tax at the end of the year also.
I live in SC but I'm only about 5 mins from the Georgia border. Georgia has a tax on food where as SC does not. I would shop at the Georgia Walmart more often if they didn't have the tax because it's slightly closer than the nearest SC Walmart.

Bananas come in lots of sizes depending on the season and where they're from, etc.
Most of those large size items are for families of 4 or more....or its for people who are doing their shopping for the whole month. We usually dont shop every other day or week. We do a masive grocery shopping trip once a month, and then a few small trips during the month for stuff we need (ie. Milk, bread, etc.) Or run out of.
There are signs everywhere telling you where the different sections are. All they need to do is look up.
Depends on the Wal-Mart's layout. While mine has signs, it has some weird short aisles in the center of the store that do weave like a maze. When you are in the middle of them, you can't really see anything. Similarly, there is a cleaning and home supply section in the back that doesn't line up perfectly with the other aisles and you can't see. I could see a tourist being confused. Those of us that are used to these mega store know to stand in the central walking aisle versus the actual aisles in order to figure out where a particular department is. I'm not sure how she missed the groceries as near me, all of the Wal-Marts have that completely to one side of the store (left or right) and it is labeled on the outside of the building in that way. They must have entered on the opposite side and just started walking, haha.
@@KatieBellinoguess I gotta go to my local Walmart cause I've never noticed the signs outdoors lol.
@KatieBellino you are correct. It's in BIG letters above the doors. Grocery on one side and home, auto, sporting goods and gardening on the other. The pharmacy is usually in the front center part along with makeup, clothing, clearance and jewelry. Once you figure out your store it's a breeze to shop. Until they decide to re-vamp the store! Mine did that a few years ago and I had to learn it all over.
@@chanmi1957 I hate it when the store rearranges to make it "easier."
I kept yelling that! Look for an isle sign. Lol
Every Walmart has two seperate entrances, one is at the grocery side, the other is the general store. If you come into the non-grocery entrance, you have to walk about halfway to get to the food part.
This is also why there are similar videos to this on YT where the family thinks they have gone EVERYWHERE in the store and say things like "Oh, I guess Walmart doesn't have deodorant or mouthwash." They are accidentally walking past or skipping going to the aisles to the right of the Pharmacy where you can get shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, mouthwash, makeup, hair accessories, etc.
One of the best things about many of our grocery stores is that there is PLENTY for people who are not into the health food thing.
If you've never had watermelon, you should. It tastes like water with just the slightest sweet taste. Very refreshing and hot weather because it's thirst quenching. Water with the tiniest sweet taste. Very thirsty quenching.
Baked beans originated with Native American tribes, particularly the Iroquois, Narragansett, Penobscot and other eastern tribes. Their method involved soaking the beans for several hours or even overnight. Mix them with bear fat (tallow) and maple syrup, then slow cook them in earthen, or deer-skin pots hung over a fire. Later baked beans were introduced in Europe, but they pre-date even the white settlers coming to the new land. It is because we generally cook them in pork fat (lard) that makes them not vegetarian. Of course we may add bacon, maple syrup, brown sugar or other flavorings to them. The vegetarian baked beans are cooked in tomato sauce, with whatever flavoring is desired. (Edited for spelling)

I live in the San Joaquin Valley in California and that valley is nothing but agricultural. They grow about 85% of the world’s almonds in central California. But we always have access to fresh everything because it’s pretty much grown down the street. I live next to a field that grows watermelon in summer and they harvest them from the field and take them down the road to the store.
Your reactions are priceless 😂. I live in the Midwest USA near a Walmart. The choices there are endless.
The loaf of bread that’s 6 dollars is a specialty bread. This bread is made with sprouted wheat and very healthy seeds and such. I sometimes buy this bread, because it is very nutritious and delicious. It is expensive, but worth it.

I loved the way they took their time and looked for the best values. A lot of these grocery shopping videos show these content creators getting lost in the store and not really taking the time to shop, then they declare the groceries are so expensive or America only carry massive items.
Yes, they did an awesome job. I'm guessing they are more conscious shoppers in general. Your average person isn't. Plus, I think some content creators love shock value, so they'll show you the mega pack and not point out that the really average sized pack is an option too. For example, the massive pack of torillas was next to many normal ones. Definitely a reason to buy those sometimes - large event (Wal-Mart/Sam's Club carry bulk packs partially for this purpose), tortillas freeze pretty well, so you can also get a good value and keep pulling what you need out of the freezer.
Seems pretty obvious they make value shopping and comparison videos.
Many of these European tourists buy the prepared food, mainly sweets, they can't buy in Europe, and then at a small size similar to European sizes. They are NOT buying the larger sizes with a better value most Americans do. They are buying food for a day or two, not a week or more...
Eating junk food can get pretty expensive fast. Fresh fruits and vegetables, especially the staples like potatoes, carrots, apples, etc. are pretty cheap, although inflation has been pretty bad the past few years.
😂 The green tortillas are made with spinach. You can put different ingredients into flour or corn tortillas. Different flavored tortillas are good for different fillers (meats, beans, rice) for burritos or tacos.
You can't leave it there for that 😂 she cracks me up.
