Could you do the Asda Just Essentials challenge again? It would be interesting to see the difference from last time given price increases over the past year. Just keep rising guys ✌🏻

[@1-point-of-veiw-among-many93]

I would love to see how and what you make with this food for the week for you all so 7 breakfasts, dinners, teas and as an extra maybe suppers and snacks if you can love the show .

[@laurenthomas2869]

I second this! X

[@fattybum5986]

Was going to comment this but i dnt think ive ever seen a weekly meal plan or videos on any budget weekly shop of the meals🤷 such a shame really

[@mxfolkard]

Farmfoods does some great deals and some new and interesting things what you wouldn’t always see in a “everyday” supermarkets. Seems like you got a lot of good stuff for the budget, also love how you set all the foods out at the end of these videos, seems very aesthetically pleasing 💚 #freegang #livebutnotlive #justkeeprising

[@avacadman2155]

We shop at Farmfoods but only for selected items as they do sell a lot of Name brands. Toilet paper is cheap. Cheese is good, butter also.They do not all have the same items. Remember you get money off at the till using their vouchers too, we download them onto our phones. 👍

[@EmmaWilkinson1]

Hello Family Freedom ❤ I LOVE Farmfoods as it is so inexpensive and their promotions are great. X

[@SuperMissblueeyes]

I really like the Green Quisine stuff. Highly recommend.

[@catherineclark2949]

Great haul ,and you bought a lot for the money. A real variety of foods really enjoyed this xx

Hey FreeGang from America 🇺🇸, Love ur family and videos ❤

[@FamilyFreedom]

Thank you! 😊

[@RaptureReady-p8f]

Hi Katie. Just realized you bought green beans and wanted to give you a great recipe: steam the beans in fry pan with chopped onion, when done, drain water and sauté with a touch of oil to crisp slightly, add garlic for a bit, then finish with stirred in bottled chili sauce and mix….delish. I do a mix of corn, peppers, and zucchini and onions the same way. Happy cooking….

[@RaptureReady-p8f]

Recipe should be SWEET chili sauce!!!! above

[@FamilyFreedom]

That sounds like a delicious recipe! Thank you very much, I can't wait to try it 🙏

[@ChloeSinclair-jt5kj]

Glad to see you post a video hope your all doing well.😊

[@sharonellis8776]

Hi Katie & Bob. You did really well with this challenge. xx

[@FamilyFreedom]

Thanks Sharon

[@Rosie-iy2bv]

it's been proven there's nothing wrong with msg, just like there's nothing wrong with sugar (in reasonable amounts) it is simply a flavour enhancer that is naturally occuring in many many foods. If you look into this msg not being safe is rooted in racism and stems from where one man claimed he had stomach ache due to asian food and the msg in it. As somebody who lives in Asia please research offensive assumptions❤

[@FamilyFreedom]

Hey Rosie, thanks for sharing this, it's interesting to read and we'll look into more for sure 👍

[@tonycasey3183]

After you did your last Farmfoods video, I went to my local one in Castleford. There was no vegan stuff, just a Linda McCartney veggie sausage. There weren't even any cans of pulses/beans apart from baked beans, or any plant milks. It is very much a carnivore store. I think they must stock their shops according to the are as mine was totally different to the one you visited.

[@lparky4409]

Probably just stock according to most purchased items. We have 2, small one in town centre and one on outskirts with other discount shops. The bigger one has more variety but still a lot of ready made processed stuff.

[@RaptureReady-p8f]

Morning Family Freedom from Canada. Very hot here on the west coast. Did you know that if you want to check if a pineapple is ripe you can try to pull out one of the prickles on the top. If it pulls out easily it is ripe. If hard to pull out, leave a bit longer to ripen. Tip of the Day! ❤😮

[@FamilyFreedom]

Thanks so much that's an awesome tip!! 👍🍍

[@AlbertPalmer-w9k]

Always do most of my shopping at farm foods very good quality and cheep prices especially on there multi packs of soft drinks

[@lanamitchell6592]

Hi family freedom hope you are well and having a good day! Another great video! Can't leave the pot noodles there! I just got back from the lavender fields u recommended it! You guys will love it there! Especially Katie! Take care Just keep rising 💚🌿🌻

[@FamilyFreedom]

Hey Lana! Thanks for watching and commenting 😊 We're glad you had a nice time at the lavender fields 👍 We hope you have a great evening. Just keep rising 💚🌿🌻

[@yukigigi2857]

This is the biggest farmfoods I've seen! You found some great bargains. I would love another katie cooks video 🙏🙏🙏😂 especially if you want to show us how you make your chickpea bean burgers and what seasoning you use.

[@FamilyFreedom]

We've got some more cooking videos coming up soon

[@joanfreestone1707]

I can never get over the variety of food choices you have in England. It's getting harder and harder here in Perth to find what I want in the shops. I love Linda McCartney foods and they seem to be disappearing from our supermarkets. Your shopping would have come to double that here. The government has started looking into supermarkets overcharging for everything.

[@FamilyFreedom]

Hey Joan, thanks for your comment. It's good to know that they're looking into the prices, hopefully something good comes of it

[@janetrossiter134]

Great shopping haul 😊

[@AlbertPalmer-w9k]

She's a very good shopper

[@paulcole4902]

Looked like you both picked up some bargains up 👍

[@dancaddick5679]

Green beans are the one!

[@WilliamB161]

Hi Family Freedom how are you all feeling today ❤

[@FamilyFreedom]

We're doing great thanks William. How are you today? 😊

[@alishawilliams4194]

Love the green beans and, in fact, made some for dinner tonight. But I swapped them out for a salad with fresh greens that were out of date today, lol. The beauty is, though, that I can now just reheat them for tomorrow's dinner and it's one less thing I have to do then, lol. But yeah, love the green beans. Have a great week, guys!

[@lynnedelacy2841]

Oooo that’s my local FarmFoods ! For veggies and fruits of course go to the market stall in the centre of the town And as a complete aside for bargains go to the Cancer Research charity shop next to Iceland in the town where everything is £1

[@kimharvey80]

Hope you are all ok. Sending hugs to you all xx

[@FamilyFreedom]

We're all very good thanks Kim

[@historybarf]

My husband is a Brit and I had to learn to make mashed Swede (rutabaga) and carrots. It’s delicious.

Hi family freedom, great video as always, Wow brilliant shop, I miss Farmfoods so much and icelands. I’m now copying Katie’s phrase, I can’t leave it there for that 💷🪙 . Xx❤

[@wHiPpEdFoRJeOnJuNgKoOk]

Love Farmfoods, its very affordable for frozen food

[@FamilyFreedom]

We love Farmfoods too 😊

[@davidthescottishvegan]

Another awesome shopping challenge video Katie & Bob. MSG is a flavour enhancer and it basically increases your appetite which means you will eat more of the product so best being avoided. Lots of yummy 😋 vegan food, 😍 green beans and love 🥰 the video. Love 💕 Family Freedom live not live from Scotland.

[@dianebaker5243]

Thank for sharing

[@gordon767]

I see you went on Monday 1st July. As all those numbers on the price tickets and the freezer lids were from the stocktake the night before.

[@Lydskenney83]

Would love to see some of the receipes for meals u mentio.

[@wendywilson858]

I bought the pigs in blankets gravy reduced in tesco. I think it's the best one. We haven't got a big enough freezer to go there. Xx

[@louiseheald9480]

hi freegang love your vlog to day of going to farm foods i love that place you get so much for your money and you can come out with a trolly full well i love to see more videos on shopping haul and just keep rising

[@FamilyFreedom]

Thanks so much Louise. There will be more shopping videos coming up on this channel for sure 👍

[@joelle3135]

Hi guys, i have been watching quite a few ‘frugal living’ videos trying to get ideas for saving money. I was thinking this is something you guys could do some more videos on in connection with the budget shopping videos. I know you have covered things like this in the past. Things like how to meal plan and shop on a limited budget, ideas for meals, days out on a budget etc.

[@billiepetrie4199]

Do you guys live near an Asda? I’d love to see a £30 challenge of their just essential range ❤️

[@FamilyFreedom]

Hey Billie, that's a great idea. We plan to do that sometime this year 👍

[@CharlyJill]

When I would lug my farm food bags home in the 90s my daughter would get second hand embarrassment 😂 normal now back then it was mortifying for the teens shopping with their maws😂

[@fedupbin]

Aldi flaxseed very nice £1.29 ish

[@RuthT90]

Hey guys, I don't know if you'll see this but I wanted to tell you about my daughter. She just turned 9 and she absolutely loves you. She's watched every video you've made and we've even done some food challenges ourselves now. She got 2 of your tops and a tote bag for her birthday and hasn't stopped wearing them since. Her name is Jana Taylor (pronounced Yana) and it would be amazing if you could give her a shout out in one of your videos. I know it would make her day/year! We're also a vegan family (me and her little brother too) and I love that she can watch another family with the same morals as us ❤ thanks Katie, Bob and Jojo xx

[@Mama4d8]

Never heard of swede. Had to look that one up. We have turnips and rutabagas which I don't think I've ever had either. I don't like spicy veggies like cauliflower. Great haul once again!

[@colettebishop2173]

Swede is rutabaga

[@EK.entertainment]

I do love Farmfoods.. I bought a Makeup Revolution eyeshadow palette in there for £1.99 - which is Vegan and cruelty free. It was so random to see it!

[@FamilyFreedom]

That's great!

[@TheNameIsTeddi]

Farmfoods is amazing and I have an empty freezer. Should really take a trip there haha! Would love some ice lolly's as my wisdom teeth are currently coming in 🤕

[@lisbrealey1343]

I’m not a green bean fan the are called squeaky beans in our house as the squeak when you eat them 😂

Excellent video keep up the good work

[@FamilyFreedom]

Thanks for your kindness 😊

[@christiesmith978]

Family Freedom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FreeGang! Yay!!! Commenting to you #LIVEbutNOTLIVE from South Carolina, USA (East Coast). That was a lot of groceries! Can I request a NO-budget grocery haul from the cheapest grocery store/outlet where each of you get to walk the store ONE time and grab whatever you want the most from each side of the aisle and at the end see who spent the most/least on their guilty pleasures. The hitch is that it is a forward progressive shop... once you pass the item on the side you are choosing from at the time you can not go back for that item... plus once you choose an item from whichever side you are looking at at the time and then further down the aisle you something you want more, you can NOT exchange ... once you have picked from that side you must move onto the next side and then the next aisle and so on and so forth. I hope that I made sense. LOL, did in my brain just don't know if it translated to paper. #JKR

[@FamilyFreedom]

Hey Christie! Thank you so much for your comment and for sharing this AWESOME idea!!! 🙏😃

[@avacadman2155]

This is why we shop at Farmfoods. Just stay away from those name brands. I made my own frozen veggie when the main stores were doing the offer on veg, everything was 30p in bags. So I made my own stew packs and separate veggies too.

[@judynabors8681]

Well now you have our Curiosity up ! Be sure and tell everyone how the pot noodles were that you guys got and how they tasted !!

why is it in England you have so many multibuys where's in Australia frozen fruits are $8 each and that's for 500g if you want pre made vegan food your looking at anywhere between $7-14 for things like vegie sausages or vegan sausage rolls pies etc...

[@FamilyFreedom]

Hey, that's a good question, and it's interesting to hear of the contrast in Australia too 🇦🇺 The multi-buys are more common in stores like Farm Foods and Iceland, and in some cases are better value but not always 😊

Nearly all of it will get eaten, but if we feel it won't or perhaps we have too much of one particular product, we'll give to a food bank

[@johnpasifull564]

What's the prices for farm foods likes of burgers bacon eggs chickens susages fish chips joints of various meats and similar items fizzy drinks crisps biscuits hot chocolate coffees tea bags ect please and where's nearest farm goods to camden London area as having one closer would be a great help as my partner is unfortunately terminally ill and on benefits we don't have massive amounts of money and London taxis ain't cheap fact .

Hey John, thanks for your comment. The prices are generally quite cheap - especially if getting a multi-buy deal. For your nearest store, check out their website and they should have a list, or even a search function 👍
