    I went to take a look at a supermarket in Shenzhen, China and this is what I found. From fruits to snacks, from ice-creams to potato chips.
    Location: Carrefour Houhai, Nanshan district, Shenzhen, China

    I am so glad you show the supermarket in China because that is what I don't know what to expect when I living in China. I am surprised that you don't know much about Chinese foods and ingredients. How can sweet potato looks like grapes, red beans looks like chocolate and green beans looks like lime? Yes, Chinese like sweet potatoes because that is healthy for you. In compare with American supermarket, the Chinese supermarket has so much more varieties. The variety is the key.

    OMG! Estaba esperando con ansias sobre esto! 😅
    He visto que muchos UA-camrs latinos cuando van a los supermercados de allá, terminan comprando muchas cosas que aquí no suelen verse y parecen un tanto extrañas para probarlas. Me llamo la atencion todos esos helados jaja.
    Y con respecto al chiste de que traduces para no terminar llevandote algo que contenga "Perro", si es mas mito que otra cosa?

    • @RafaGoesAround
      @RafaGoesAround  4 роки тому +3

      Muchas gracias Luis! Si, se encuentran cosas raras aquí. Aunque no tanto como para encontrar perro. No es un mito, hay ciudades donde si se consume, aunque con todo el tema del COVID, al menos en Shenzhen la carne de perro y gato está prohibida, y ya otras ciudades en China están haciendo lo propio. Es una buena noticia! Gracias por el comentario y saludos!

    Is there much cultural diversity in China in the bigger cities, or is it typically culturally homogeneous ?
    I live in NYC and would love to move to China, but I’m afraid that I might miss the tremendous mix of cultures like we have here ... events, food, languages, etc. But, I do have a strong pull towards China and am presently learning Mandarin. ☮️💚🌻✨💪🏼🙏
