Before I came to Germany, I recorded lots of groceries and the prices at a grocery store named Ralphs. Now I’m in the grocery store in Germany and I am comparing those two videos, America and Germany and try to find out in which country has the cheapest groceries prices.

I am mostly German born in Chicago. I am older now with more time so I (in the suburbs now) routinely go through the big garbage bins and pull out as many plastic bottles to put into the recycle container. I usually pull out about 3 regular garbage cans FULL of plastic bottles of every type every week. It makes me feel good to watch when the truck picks up all those recyclable plastics up. Even all those large laundry detergent bottles which I call high value. I also roam the condo complex grounds routinely to pick up garbage that many people just throw to the ground. Being neat, clean and organized must be a German thing. I'm just doing my part to make America Beautiful as much as possible.

Groceries are in general, at least 20 percent less in Europe as opposed to U.S. There are some things less in the U.S., but on average considerably less in Europe. A loaf of wheat (factory) bread is $4.00 here in the U.S. I could get a freshly baked wheat bread of 600 grams from the grocery store in Europe for $1.75.
