Cost of groceries in Seoul, Korea 🇰🇷 pt 2

[@damarjatipanuluh2511]

​@@shahadmerani3116no it's not. Because korea is focused more on industry besides the agricultural... I worked here and yeah vegetables prices are getting out of hands... They imported vegetables mostly from other countries so the distribution probably make the things pricey

@@damarjatipanuluh2511 It's the markup for convenience

Don’t be fooled by the number of items. Once you start going into the fruit section, a regular size watermelon costs around $20 and over $10 for a dozen imported bananas. The milk you just saw is in a 1L container meaning for a gallon of milk you are paying $8. Fresh unprocessed foods and ingredients tend to run cheaper than the states but once you start going into the processed food region or food service sector the price skyrockets easily surpassing any US suburbs and close to NYC or Tokyo - while the average income of Koreans is about 60-70% of that American.

Wow, it's almost $6 a bottle of soju where I live 😢 Plum soju sounds amazing too...

Its A$12 a bottle here.

I spent almost $400 for groceries the other night and only came home with a few bags!! Had I not purchased organic, I could have come home with 10 times the amount of food, but I choose quality over quantity.

Bro if you got organic eggs you got scammed because then what are the non organic ones

[@coiffureclips8148]

organic is a scam and more times than not contaminated by conventional products… save your money

[@neytash1716]

@@trumpsrabbit2873 chickens that produce “non-organic” eggs are pumped with hormones and antibiotics and fed cheap foods with chemical additives. i buy local because they’re cheaper than the organic ones but at least you know what the chickens are being fed

Holy crap! You can't get even half of that in Canada. East coast provinces are paying $8.00-$10.00 for milk alone

[@isabellahollis2358]

$40 Aud gets you about 4 items in a grocery shops considering our Greek yogurt is roughly $10, chips $6, beef is the same price and tofu $10

E-Ink price tags are truly everywhere, they seem to be very cost effective

About the same in Ireland, Bulgaria and Spain (latter 2 probs get you even more products)

I really like the garlic squeezy pack. No more garlic smelling fingers!

[@leilameow9582]

Waste of money, get whole cloves for 1/3 of the price and blend them with some water and store in a jar. Fresher, homemade, and much cheaper and tastier.

bruh i wish we can shop like this in America. This would easily be $100+

[@veraps.5176]

Koreans really love Greek yogurt, and I can't blame em. As a Greek, I can't live without Greek yogurt, honey, salad, souvlaki... 😂 Most Greek food is so delicious and healthy. If I could change anything, it would have been the high prices lately..

[@o6ina]

I live in Japan and I really like the Bulgarian Plain yoghurt here. Greek yogurt is just the strained protein, and for that reason has less probiotics. It has less flavor, too. Maybe it depends on the brand, but I've tried three diffrent types of Greek yoghurt and it is just not it.

Remember salaries are a lot less in Korea, for example a software engineer makes, on average, $50k usd a year, a dentist $112k usd, a lawyer $54k usd, so it makes sense that groceries are cheaper.

[@amairabaig8233]

Uh think grocery is cheaper? Maybe ur area is very expensive... Everything' in this video was hella expensive

[@LodgeLouise014]

Wdum cheaper ????!!!! There wayyy more exspensive. I live in the uk tho but with £40 you could get a whole 2weeks shop, not just for two days 💀😭😭 Most fresh vegetables (bags of them)here are less than £1.50, which is about 1.8$

[@CC-uq7cv]

You are jumping to conclusions from a very short video. Groceries are not exactly cheap there. Fruit can be very expensive

Wow for me £40 food last me 2 weeks Maybe because I crush ginger and garlic myself And make my own sauces and put them in the fridge And I buy organic local market vegetables I buy noodles or beans in bulk They can last like 2 months Most of the cost goes to seafood or meat I have a very tight budget and I’m strict with it Oh and I only drink once in two weeks 😂😂 so that helps

[@Lavenderpsyche]

£40 for two weeks? Where do you shop? Even the cheapest supermarkets like Aldi and Lidl, aren’t that cheap anymore. Definitely not that cheap to only spend £40 for two weeks.

[@Sarah_Grant]

It's not just the prices but the amount as well. The potatoes for instance....in the States we buy them in 3 or 5 Pound bags usually. What you bought seemed like 1 pound. (a reason why we are all huge here...lol)

[@BLINKONCEifyoureMIDZY]

In Canada that would be at least 90$ probably like 120$

[@alohatvj]

The price would be much more in California for sure.
