EATING ONLY HEMA FOR 24 HOURS (a hema food tour)

In this episode, Michelle and Alex are trying Dutch food again! This time, they'll be eating all three of their meals (and some in between) at HEMA, a popular (and beloved) chain of stores that serve everything from clothing to sausages. This HEMA food tour will no doubt leave you hungry for hot dogs, tompouce, and stamppot, yearning to start a new life in Holland.

WHO IS BUNCHARTED?
We're Michelle and Alex, a travel-obsessed American couple living abroad in the Netherlands.
In 2020, we quit our jobs to travel the world, and... yeah, that didn't happen. So in 2022, we decided to make an even BIGGER change, packing up our lives (and our cats 🐈), moving from Austin, Texas, to Rotterdam, in the Netherlands. Subscribe for new videos like this every week!

HEMA stands for "Hollandse Eenheidsprijzen Maatschappij Amsterdam" (Dutch Unitary Pricing Company Amsterdam). It apparently was the first retailer that had the same price for their products all over the country. It is famous for its Rookworst (smoked sausage). HEMA is also popular in France.

[@jumpingpiggie422]

Rookworst zonder R is ook worst! Fun fact, Jumbo verkoopt ook een aantal worsten die gemaakt worden wat vroeger altijd "de Hema worst" was. Probeer die verse knakworsten maar eens, komt goed in de buurt van zo'n vette halve die je op zaterdag haalde tijdens je markt bezoeken... En daarna even onpasselijk voelde omdat het toch wel een erg vette bek was :)

[@stephanvanlunenburg4930]

not quite. HEMA was founded as a stunt shop based on the American example of the woolworths stores that had a 5ct and 10ct store. in the Hema everything used to be for sale for 25ct and 50ct. later this was expanded with 75ct and 1 guilder.

[@JM-fg3et]

HEMA is established since November 4th 1926: approx. 96 years ago....

[@JM-fg3et]

HEMA is also currently selling (R)OOKWORST, with veggies in it. I love it.

[@dukejohn2898]

hema staat voor, Hier Eet Men Afval.

[@DennisLongstream]

If, as a foreigner, you have tried the HEMA smoked sausage and the HEMA tompouce and you like them so much, then your integration has been a complete success! 🇳🇱♥

[@MarcelVolker]

It's interesting that you refer to the cakes as "dessert" selection. In the Netherlands, people eat those cakes with coffee (morning, afternoon, or evening), not for dessert. Maybe that's why you were a little surprised?

[@erikmulder2574]

That is the first thing I noticed as well. Cakes we eat with afternoon tea, evening coffee or celebrations, not as a desert.

[@bearclaire]

Maybe they mean desert as in it's a sweet treat

[@nicoanker1343]

I just love the enthusiasm from Michelle.

[@frankgeurts3912]

HEMA is very ‘no-nonsense’, so very Dutch. And their Rookworst is the best!

[@noabakker3848]

Putting chips on a sandwich is very American. Looks awesome, i'm definitely going to try that.😋

​@@buddy1155 I rather have a crunchy pizza to begin with, no soggy pizza's for me!

[@nyoko2926]

Hi! I enjoyed your video a lot. I'm Dutch and worked at the Hema 22 years ago at the meat section, including rookworsten. You made me feel nostalgic!

[@jordyvanstuivenberg855]

Hell yeah ! , keep them videos coming :D

[@jordicouperus4657]

Great video guys. Hema is such a Dutch Institute so im happy you finally got to experience it. Still cant believe i got to see you shoot this vid and give some local insights❤

[@buncharted]

so good to meet you, jordi!!!

[@basvanderwerff2725]

raw endive works really well also in a stampot

[@ialrakis5173]

Great video with so many topics. I use the same technique for eating my tompouce 🙂 Filet americain as a base for a sandwich is always a good idea, plenty of combinations are possible. And rookworst is also great in a thick peasoup during the colder seasons.

[@ilonkagootjes858]

Filet Amercain is not a carpaccio, since that's a cutting technic. (Very thin sliced) It's proced minced raw beef, with ketchup mayo etc. 😊

[@TheJolanda01]

Hema rookworst is the best,love love love it

[@bertschalk1798]

As far as I know, the available microwaves in various stores are provided as a courtesy to warm up milk or food etc. for babies but I'm pretty sure nobody would mind if you use it to heat up the pancakes instead. Great video again btw....really enjoy your view(S !) on The Netherlands 🙂

[@claraoswald_121]

Your videos are very additctive 😊 Years ago, Hema had a 1 euro breakfast with coffee, a croissant and a harder sandwich with an omelette. it was awesome

[@buncharted]

we talked about how awesome that was in the video but i had to cut it 😂 can you imagine a deal like that today???

[@claraoswald_121]

😅😅 yeah, those where the times 😂

[@nout1972]

IKEA had this as well

[@annat.s.3600]

I went once every week back then to have a breakfast date with my toddler.❤

[@MartijnPennings]

The 1 euro breakfast was basically meant to get people to the store to get them to buy more stuff, which I guess worked pretty well. If you're at Hema anyway, might as well pick up a few items. Plus it was very good advertising.

[@pel666]

You figured it out...this is how I eat my Tompouce...but I use a knife or fork to split top and bottom and have equal Bakkersroom on both sides. The filling has a story of it's own...traditional Bakkersroom is made with corn starch (Maizena) and you really have to cook it, most places use ready made powder and add milk/water to it. And I cannot keep from posting a comment on the Stampot...Raw Andijvie with spekjes and a Gravy from Meatballs, and the meatball ofcourse, is just classic. As is the Hutspot (carrot/onion) with Meatballs or Klapstuk, Spinache (so fluffy and delicious) with again the Meatball and a boiled egg, and Hete Bliksem (with dutch Apples) with slow cooked beef (draadjesvlees). I love to have Rookworst with my stampot...but missing out on the gravy is why I go with the Dutch Meatball or slow cooked beef.

[@rmyikzelf5604]

Yep.

[@jokevv1]

When kale is out of season endive is a good alternative for stamppot (make sure to throw some bacon bits in as well).

[@buncharted]

haha michelle texted me from the store and was like “endive or spinach?” i guess i went with the wrong option 😅

[@deetgeluid]

Raw endive!

[@AnnaMaria-uo5mu]

Spinach in stamppot is not very common

[@DennisLongstream]

@@AnnaMaria-uo5mu Spinach stew not common? Do you live in a different Netherlands than I do? 😅

[@bearclaire]

Or frozen Kale if you really want kale

[@FrankHouwelingBoskoop]

I love the tompouce eating technique. Some real innovation happening here!

[@buncharted]

THANK YOU! 😂

[@davidc.w.2908]

That corner at the Hema takes me back to when I used to come there. You never experienced the V&D that used to be at the other corner. It used to be a department store where I shopped from a young age, starting in Utrecht and later in Rotterdam. Times have changed. I hope Hema will stay around because it wasn’t looking good a couple years ago. American filet goes very well with boiled eggs!

[@jws6181]

you needed "Jus" on your stampot and rookworst...thats a must !!

[@petesiwel837]

You should try the Hema soft ice. Comes in a cone

[@rico3580]

Indeed the kale variant of stamppot "boerenkool" is out of season this is a real winter dish, while you can make stamppot with lots of vegetables and spinach is certainly possible, its not real common to do so the Netherlands in the combination with the "Hema rookworst" the more obvious choice would have been the the stamppot with carrots/union "hutspot" or sauerkraut"zuurkool". you should also try the stamppot with raw andijvie in combination with meatballs and gravy or the one with leeks "prei" in combination with salmon they all are real comfort foods.

[@Dennisboetes]

My best friend from UK is addicted to Hema stuff. I send her a 'survival pack' about 4 times a year. She really loves the Jip en Janneke stuff...

[@buncharted]

i wish we had been able to try their rookworst chips (ahem, crisps) before they closed in the UK!

[@Dennisboetes]

@@buncharted yeah. That really bummed her out as well. Good thing she has a dutch dealer 😏

[@BrazenNL]

@@buncharted CHIPS. It's the reason we booted them out of the EU, real talk.

[@ExxoToxin]

For the filet american also use some pepper and salt ,and yes you can also add rucola or lettuce and egg

[@ExxoToxin]

And yes if kale is out off season use raw andive (I like raw andive better then kale xD) and do add some bacon and don't forget the stampot jus (gravy) you can buy those packets in store but add Less water so the gravy stays alittle thicker.

[@nathanyellll]

“this is not a flattering angle”😭😭 off topic but thank you guys for the videos. I really appreciate it them, I am returning to The Netherlands this fall and love learning more. 🫶🥳

[@DenUitvreter]

I lived above a Hema for over ten years so I used it as my grocery store a lot. When it comes to bread and meats and chease to put on it, better and certainly better value for money than the AH. Quite good a typical Dutch microwave meals too, erwtensoep, nasi goreng. The rookworst is the best industrial one, because it's actually smoked instead of using smoke aroma. Great at

[@evelinedieleman]

In Belgium we sometimes put some mustard on the filet amercain sandwich. We also have a sandwich called "martino", a hard baguette with filet americain (preparé), diced raw onions, slices of pickles and a marino sauce (spicy ketchupy sauce). And with the stamppot and saucage we use some mustard to.

[@bertoverweel6588]

I always have lunch in this HEMA when I am in Rotterdam.

[@Bduh2]

I remember very well how my Dad and I took the bus to the center of Den Helder and first we stopped at De Hema for some rookworst followed by a Saucijze broodje, then we walked to the nearby market and that's where for me the real fun began: 2 Haring with onion of course, unlimited mossels then another long walk going by the stalls and ending up eating 2 kroketjes and a patatje met. (frite sause)

[@rickweijers500]

Its not mayonaisse, but honey-mustard sauce (normally at least). Love it :D

[@frisos3944]

O Michelle your so brave trying licorice over and over again 😂

[@beechnut8256]

Idd, riculah,en salt and pepper the filet, delicious !

[@basvandiepen2772]

15:02 looks like a lot of potato. comes in deferent flavers, boerekool: kale; andijfie: endive; wortel en ui (hutspot): carrot and onion;

[@Tinmar_AA]

try zwart witjes ;) sweet on the outside and a nice suprise in the middle

[@floreswoestenburg9367]

Try the spicy rookworst!!

[@hcjkruse]

The microwave is for baby milk bottles. Yes you can microwave your pancakes at home ;) . Based on the tangy flavour mentioned he jam is probably not jam but pannenkoekenstroop, a sugar beet treacle with a hint of apple. You can get pure pear or apple treacle in AH but they are more expensive. Sadly HEMA restaurants will be rebranded La Place. We had a few experiences with food poisoning with La Place and avoid them ever since. Nice tom poes technique, you really did use the feedback, did your homework! As mentioned elsewhere ALDI does have trader joe stuff but some Dutch only items.

[@buncharted]

we didn’t know about pannenkoekenstroop - that’s really good to know! that also explains why she had fresh “jam” and i had the packaged strawberry jam 🤔

[@hcjkruse]

@@buncharted the more fluid pannenkoekenstroop in a plastic squeeze bottle is often used were Americans use Maple leaf Syrup. it is more traditional on Dutch pancakes. Maple Leaf Syrup used to be expensive in NL.. I use it in some recipes that require caster sugar or when making sushi rice. Much quicker.

[@RAWDernison1]

Time to find a kapsalon, Alex. And I don't mean the one with fries ...

[@knol1969]

Hema food is good, cheap and the restaurants are clean. I love eating at Hema. 🤤

[@Savescreen]

Super fun watch!! My first job ever (10+ years ago!) was at HEMA. We always wanted our first break before 10 so we could get the cheap breakfast (which used to be 1 euro normally but 75 cents for employees!). Quite an insane price hike nowadays but still cheap compared to a lot of places currently.

[@MartijnPennings]

I remember i once had to buy 4 very different things, like underwear, envelopes, a towel and bicycle lights, and all of that is sold at Hema. Plus, rookworst.

[@dahemper]

Yes thats how I eat a tompouce also. The only not messy way.

[@BrazenNL]

For me, the thing with HEMA is that it's quick and cheap. That's it. Except for the rookworst. I don't care if your butcher's version takes you to artisanal heaven, HEMA rookworst is *it*. Oh, and my favorite vegetable to put in stamppot is "andijvie". That and "spekkies" (small, crunchy pieces of pork belly) is amazing.

[@buncharted]

hema definitely has a high taste to value ratio, plus it’s super convenient! #notsponsored

[@bomhof2002]

Their tompouce and saucage is mjummie 😋

[@lowie267]

And very nice and sweet video and nice chandelier s 👍

[@nielsabbas7166]

About the apple pie... . Since you are living in Rotterdam you have to eat apple pie at Dudok. Just order a coffee, fresh (warm) apple pie with whipped cream on top (and put a little spoon with cream on your coffee). After this you'll never eat a Jumbo or Hema apple pie again... .

[@buncharted]

oh yes, we haven’t found better than dudok in rotterdam. but it would be unfair to expect dudok quality from hema 😂

[@Jaimedevos]

Flip the tompouce on it's side. Then you can dig in with your fork much easier.😊

[@buncharted]

🤯

[@BrazenNL]

@@buncharted No, you did it almost correctly. Separate the top part, put it down glazing up, put the rest on top. Now you can either cut it and the filling won't spill out, or you can pick it up with your hand. This is the way.™

[@queercastlimburg]

Hema is owned by Jumbo Supermarket, the pastry is from La Place.

[@whitevader007]

You'll have to go to the shop Little Italy in Rotterdam, Lombardkade 51-a. It's a small shop with imported Italian food. Of course they have pizza's but they are made and baked for you. They have also have sandwiches. But that is only a small part of the shop. They have a variety of meat, cheese, wine, olives, antipasta's, minisoda's for cocktails. Just ask about what they have and they love to explain the hams, cheeses or what ever. They even help you when you want to make Tiramisu!

[@buncharted]

we’ve been meaning to stop here for a while - it sounds amazing!

[@kevartje1295]

I was like "wow you gonna eat rookworst all day?" but you guys got one of those fancy city hema's with a whole sandwich bar.... Next, trie to survive in a village hema XD I also like the way Michelle uses her fork and knife, Cutting and then switching them to eat, I do that too! I actually think the microwave is for baby food but I've never seen a microwave in a store before so don't listen to me.

[@RikFTK]

Ha, that HEMA is like 50 meters from where I work. Have you tried the erwtensoep yet? So good.

[@idiewiej]

It's funny how you say there is a ton of 'desserts'. When I was younger, Hema would be the place to get some pie and lemonade. We didn't go there for lunch and dessert 😅

[@stephanvanlunenburg4930]

how do you eat the tompouce: tilt the tompouce on the side. you can then easily cut through the bottom and top and eat the tompouce with a knife and fork

[@SXMaarten01]

If you can't find fresh boerenkool, you might try fresh green endives.

I always put the "American" pancakes from AH in the microwave on the 30 second auto setting, imo the texture doesnt differ.

[@TheMarkvanes]

[@guidodenbroeder935]

You can also eat stamppot with cheese instead of worst.

[@jakobzwama6688]

Great experience! Put a littlehard fried bacon with bacon grease on your stamp...much better!

[@jumpingpiggie422]

Another stampot recipe: 1 Kilo of Stampot Aardappelen, about 1,70 400 grams of raw andijvie, about 1,80 sachet of Verstegen Anijdvie Stampotmix spices, 1,48 335 gram Gelderse Rookworst, Albert Heijn housebrand is good 300 grams of Gerookte Spekjes, trays or bags will do. Trays are more expensive Dash of vinegar ----------------------------------------- Cook potatoes for 20 minutes along with the inner packaged rookworst, use the last 10 mins to bake the bacon. Drain potatoes after cooking time, add spice mix, add the raw andijvie and let it welter for some minutes. Add vinegar and bacon and serve with rookworst with a lick of good mustard (i prefer Dyon of Grove, wholeseed) cut in half. It will cut the fat a bit. (rest of the stampot mixture you can store cold, put it cold of lightly microwaved on a boterham next day for lunch for instance) A good cheap hearty meal, especially in winter! Enjoy!

[@marcelrombouts8607]

Did you know: you can get Trader Joe's brownies at the Aldi? Not entirely strange because the Aldi stores in Holland are Aldi North; the same company that runs Trader Joe's. Maybe they carry other Trader Joe's stuff as well, but I wouldn't know because I prefer Lidl if I want the German discountsuper experience.

[@marthe4787]

That is exactly how you eat your tompouce!! Except most of the time we eat it with a little fork

[@aislingbooks]

IMO Michelle DOES eat her tompoes the best way, which really should be done with a fork because using hands to eat things is considered impolite. I've also noticed a preference to eat the bottom part first and then alternate between top and bottom, bottom and top. I learnt Dutch back when it was obligatory for immigrants to do so, and we followed a course using the 'Nieuwe Buren' textbook/audio/computer exercises that featured an Amsterdam mom & pop shop called 'Winkel van Sinkel'. The wife of the shop later worked p.t. at what I believe was some consulting bureau. My favourite episode was when she interviewed job candidates while serving them coffee and tompoes. This episode reminded me of some kind of American slapstick - like watching 'I Love Lucy' - as the interviewees struggled with varying ways of tackling this pastry while trying to make a good impression on mw Sinkel.

[@buncharted]

that’s hilarious! i wish we could transport tompouce back to the US with us whenever we go home so we could test our friends 😂

[@urbandiscount]

For a long long time, HEMA was the only mainstream store where you could buy kosher wine outside of the one kosher supermarket we have in NL. Same for their matza, which you could buy around pesach, not just easter. HEMA has a huge jewish history in NL, like Bijenkorf has.
