    But why are eggs not required to be refrigerated in the supermarket? In Germany, eggs sold end up on the shelf unwashed. This may not sound particularly appetizing, but it has a decisive advantage: the protective skin of the egg, the so-called cuticle, remains undamaged and protects it from invading germs. In the US, this protective layer is washed away, so these eggs need to be refrigerated.

      Usually you shouldn't keep eggs in the fridge...the egg holders are from the time as chicken got kept with a male to make them leg eggs & back in the day you often found baby chicken inside the eggs...thats why in those days we kept eggs in the fridge so they would grow to a baby-chicken
      But these days they get hormones & all kind of antibiotics & so on & female chicken lay eggs without need of a rooster...even if the eggs are kept outside of a fridge the chance of a baby growing inside is limited- it's basicly unfertilized eggs we eat today - don't know if that's a good thing

      I have laying hens, my eggs sit on the counter until ready to use. Leave the bloom and they can sit for months. And exactly like you said, wash means you have to refrigerate. Personally, I wouldn’t buy a hard boiled egg(I’d boil my own), nor would I buy one that is dyed, nor would I buy one that is non-refrigerated or non-pickled. That part doesn’t make sense.

      Japan and Canada also wash and refrigerate eggs. You can buy unwashed eggs in the U.S. just not commercially. There are a lot of people who sell eggs at roadside stands. U.S. poultry is not vaccinated for salmonella and this is why the U.S.D.A. requires them to be washed and refrigerated. Eggs can also be shipped across the country through various climates. A climate controlled enviroment(refrigeration)reduces food spoilage. The U.S. produces more eggs than any country in Europe. China, the U.S. and India produce the most eggs. Refrigerated eggs last longer in the fridge then unwashed eggs stored at room temperature.

      It always depends on the packaging. For example a sixpack of beer is sold only as a pack, but those bottles are also sold individually.

    German consumers are among the highest demanding in the world, there is a reason why in economics there is the saying „if you can make it in Germany you can make it anywhere“, sort of like with New York only that it‘s true. The German consumer demands high quality at the lowest possible price, which is why German companies are extremely efficient. We have streamlined trade and production to a really high level and provide subsidies on top of that.

      Ironischerweise (er)kennen viele Leute in Deutschland allerdings keine gute Qualität und verallgemeinern aufgrund oberflächlicher Erscheinung. In der Folge dann die Mentalität.... Warum das teure kaufen, das billige wäre doch genauso gut. Es fehlt das Interesse sich tiefer mit Dingen zu beschäftigen, der Preis regiert die Mentalität der meisten Leute. Ganz besonders auch eben bei Lebensmitteln. Wir haben mittlerweile einen Teufelskreis geschaffen, wodurch ein großer Teil der Bevölkerung aufgrund geringer Gehälter, insbesondere als Allein lebende, auf maximal billige Lebensmittel angewiesen sind , was wiederum nur durch maximale Ausbeutung ermöglicht werden kann. Die Qualität und Nachhaltigkeit bleibt auf der Strecke, wie auch die Gesundheit.

In Czech one, there are less employees to save money (so every of them are more busy). In Czech one store, there is only 30% amount of wages of the German one. In Czech one, products are about 20% more expensive. Most of products are made in same factory, very same building in Germany, but there is producing quality for Übermensch and underhuman.

    To be fair, the selection of Aldi when it come to sausages (and overall stuff) is pretty small compared to proper supermarkets here. This is the way the keep prices low. Just a few items of each type, but sell them in huge numbers (better contracts with the producers, easier logistics, smaller shops etc. etc.). I think where it is the most obvious is the drinks. Every proper supermarket has probably like 50 kinds of water from different brands, in glas, plastic, crates what ever, Aldi got like... 1 brand with gas or without.
    Also kinda sad to see how expensive beer became. Just a few years ago when I was a student and money was a topic we would often choose the cheap stuff and the cheapest was for years 29 Cent for half a liter (thanks to competition literally every shop had a beer at that price point). Not the best beer, but drinkable. 55 Cent means like +90% in just a few years...

Mostly popular among older people, but it is a hell of a lot cheaper buying by the pack.

      Tobacco is taxed significantly less than cigarettes in Germany. 200 Marlboro cigarettes cost 84€, while the equivalent 140g tobacco is sold for 19€. So with filters and paper you are below 25€ for 200 rolled cigarettes. If you want to smoke really cheap, you can buy dried tobacco leafs and ferment them yourself. You then pay 20€ for a full kilogram, enough for around 1400 cigarettes.

    So German Aldi is exactly like American Aldi. She lives in a rich area. All grocery stores in America charge rich people more money for the same products. If you shop in a poor neighborhood, the prices for many things are lower.
    Tons of people roll their own cigarettes in America. My tobacco is $19 per pound which is $41.80 /kg. This is about 30 packs of cigarettes which would cost $450
    Tobacco tax has been rising quickly for 20+ years. It's cheaper to make cigarettes than to vape so the percentage of smokers who roll cigarettes has been rising (considering vaping as non-smokers).
    So she shops in the rich neighborhoods and she only knows rich people 😂

      @@cacao82 In America, price is adjusted by the location. It's dictated by demand without concern for supply and great amounts of research are used to determine the maximum price possible in area A, area C and area C respectively. If you compare larger chain stores such as Aldi, Target, Walgreens etc. You'll see that prices which aren't advertised as a sale may be different at each location.
      Food prices also vary by demographic. Foods of different ethnic groups may be considered rare or common based on the demographic of the area.
      I live in Chicago and I have mostly lived in or near Latino areas. I have even noticed at Aldi, prices for ethnic food will vary. If I go to a Latino market, the prices for "American" or European food is slightly higher.
      The staple foods are the easiest to compare. Rice vs pasta. Tortillas vs bread. Rice is slightly cheaper in the Asian and Latino areas, but the pasta may be slightly more expensive.
      Pickles, ketchup and mustard will be more expensive in the Latino market.
      When I worked at Walgreens they explained that these prices for staple foods must be kept lower even though the demand is higer because it attracts more customers who will purchase more than 1 item.
      I imagine for an economics student, American capitalism would be the most complicated structure to study.
      One way that research is done to determine the prices is through Customer Loyalty programs. These stores track the spending of every customer and orgize it by home location as well as store location. The loyalty program is usually set up with a card. A credit card or discount card which can also be linked to a phone number.
      This way stores in certain areas can reflect the pricing of other areas. If a customer from area A works in area B and passes through area C, they might shop in 3 different stores from the same company. Advertising will be based on A,B and C but pricing for unadvertised products will be slightly different, depending on the area as well as the people from different areas who also shop there because of the location convenience.
      Overall, prices are determined by the amount of money people are willing to spend, not how much the product costs to make and transport. This is the biggest problem for clothing cost increases.
      On the plus side, the expansion of Aldi stores in America has lead to decreased sales of other stores. Dominic's is one grocery store that went out of business, even in wealthy areas because people chose to go to Aldi instead. So the price of Aldi will be cheaper for most products but you may find some prices are equal to the more expensive retailers in areas where people are willing to spend more money overall.
      The price of food is something people are more concerned with since food is required every day.

    I wasn't aware that tobacco products were on public display in German stores. In Ireland they're locked away in a cabinet where they can't be seen, and you have to ask for them. Strangely, even though tobacco was banned from all workplaces in 2004, you can still buy cigarettes from vending machines in licensed bars/clubs, although that's die to be banned next year.

    Reminds me of an old joke! Ein Mantafahrer hält neben einem Türken; "Hey, wo geht's n' nach Aldi?" - "Zu Aldi!", verbessert ihn der Türke. "Ach Scheiße, hat schon zu!" antwortet der Mantafahrer.
    Für die Jüngeren: Der Opel Manta war der bezahlbare Porsche und Sportwagen für die Unterschicht, neudeutsch das Prekariat und er schleppte, anders als der Ford Capri oder VW Schirokko in seiner direkten Konkurenz, sehr viele Stereotype oder neudeutsch Memes mit sich herum. Man kann sagen, dass die 'Dei Mudder' Witze oder Chuck Norris Facts in den Mantawitzen ihren legitimen Vorläufer hatten.

      To be fair, you can find both in Germany. Often they have already separated bottles on the other side off the isle.
      The easiest way to know if the bottles are supposed to be sold as pack or independently is to look at the price sign. If it includes the price for single bottles, go ahead and grab one.

    If the eggs are refrigerated in the store and you then take them home in a shopping bag, condensation will occur due to the temperature difference. And after that, they have a shorter shelf life.
