AFRICAN AMERICAN LIVING IN EGYPT GOES GROCERY SHOPPING

[@toniadams945]

In my day, milk was bottled in glass and delivered by the milkman. 😊 In America we eat garbage, I didn’t realize that until in the ‘80’s I travelled to France. Now I read the ingredients of everything I buy. In America profits are more valued than people.

This is so beneficial! We are planning go to Egypt to study Arabic and try it out. So figuring out the living cost of rent, food, transportation and so on is a little bit of a hassle, but this reaaaaally helps allot!! Keep up the good work🙌🏽

This is quite an expensive store in Egypt, you can get much cheaper prices on many items.

[@geniuspharmacist]

It's likely one of the most expensive grocery stores in Egypt. It caters to rich folks, expats, etc.

[@geniuspharmacist]

A great deal of the products sold at this store is imported food. Imported food, especially fresh foods tend to be costly anywhere you go.

I thought the prices are cheap compared to my grocery store

Hi Eddie That was actually Apple Butter Not apple sauce. I love apple butter. It tastes delicious on toast. When I was a young girl we used to have a jar of apple butter on the breakfast table along with regular margarine and jelly and raisin bread which my grandma always toasted.

Your beard looks like a bow tie cute. Enjoy your travels thank you for the channel. My first time seeing you. I traveled a lot in my youth and look forward to doing so again. I grew up military brat so it's in my blood and in my twenties did a lot by myself and with friends staying in hostels church members households as a single female. I love venturing and being with locals not so much a hotel 5 Star type traveler. I'd advise everyone go abroad even if for a week or so here and there then a few months. Work will alwsys be here but time youth gets away. We live in this world not one city so enjoy the world. Make friends abroad keep up with people experience every type of food clothing language of course be safe head on swivel but I have alwsys found people love sharing their life and culture and every place I've been folks are more laid back not alwsys striving to be rich just enjoying their wages enough for food shelter and usually what we do for free or little money is the most fun. Museums walks in parks nature hiking just people watching talking about current events politics religion although one has to listen sometimes more than give opinions be open to learning. For now I live vicariously through people like yourself brother and I thank you for that I'm 58 recently lost my 91 year-old mother who felt guilty for being I'll and 'holding me back" I never felt that wah and loved every moment with her. But now I have no one but myself and look forward to exploring the world before it changes forever as we see that day approaching. Kudos to you for having the courage to explore. It's a big deal so many people are afraid to leave what they know. I admire you abd hope others are motivated by watching. Thanks so much for sharing

[@asajohnson4125]

The prices are actually pretty comparable to American prices for some items and in several cases actually MUCH LESS expensive! Math was off on a few of these items. For instance, the Bisquick 60 pancake mix that was 255 egp would equal about $5.23 USD not "almost 10.00." That same Bisquick with a net weight of 40 oz would be $4.82 @ walmart today and $6.29 @ target. The pasta that you mentioned would be 3 for 100 egp would end up being about $0.66 USD per unit. At Target and walmart that pasta would cost $0.99 and $0.98 for 16 oz respectively. 500 grams is about 17 oz give or take. As for the syrup: the first small Organic Maple Joe Syrup you point out is actually around $10.87 USD for 250 ml, the second would be about $7.48 USD(it's not organic), and the third would be $5.47 USD. Those same items if bought in the US would be sold at about $7.99, $6.79 and the third product is not sold per unit in the US. In contrast, in the US 8 oz of Trader Joes Maple Syrup is currently at $14.82, while the walmart brand Great Value is $5.48. Other brands are somewhere within that range as well. The pampers you showed--52 pieces for 320 egp--would be about $6.40 USD. If one were to go to walmart today you would get (pampers) 52 pieces for $28.22, or roughly $0.54 per diaper. So at roughly $.12 per diaper, the cost in Egypt is approximately 67% less for the same product in American markets. The honey you show @70 egp would actually be about $1.42. Walmart honey would be $5.43 and upwards. The cheese was about $5.40 lb USD. The teas were also much less expensive than in American Markets.

[@nleddie]

The math is 100% correct look at the date of the video. When I first got here the egp to dollar was 15 to 1 now it is 49 to 1
