How Cheap Is Meal Prepping in Thailand?

[@richgirl7479]

Vegetarian here for 15 years. Take up Muay Thai visiting Chiang Mia soon will be doing some Muay Thai

[@ben_dovers]

Nice!! I’m at the Pattaya muscle factory and love it. Huge and lots of equipment I also walk there everyday

[@077SMOOTH]

Are you a retired veteran?

[@Auntpat]

I am thai local, I buy meat at the Betagro mini supermarket,CP freshmart because of its quality and the ingredients like herb, soy source ,catchup etc. lotus supermarket brand-it cheaper and good quality,thoses places you can get membership discount and buy vegetables, fruits at local fresh market because it cheaper and negotiable😄

[@grooveyguru154]

Try makro Supermarket, you will get grass fed beef and lamb from Australia and New Zealand. Meal prep is the way to go, it costs more, but ready made food is full of sugar and msg, that's why it tastes so good 😊

[@robertf57]

In Las Vegas, those groceries would cost roughly two times what you paid there. I'm wondering if it would make some sense to take Thai cooking classes to make better use of Thailands native foods. Please a good way to socialize.

[@WadmanP]

@4:21, I like how she's making the effort to select ripe mangoes for you to eat.

[@solo741]

I’ll be there at the end of the month, staying for 3. That shop was almost exactly the same as mine down to the Franks, but I like to have hb eggs on hand throughout the week. Lucky that you have an oven. I’ll probably end up buying an air fryer off Lazada.

[@katekrongchon5137]

In the US, all of that would be at least $90 easily

It’s inspiring to see how you can enjoy healthy, budget-friendly food while living in such a beautiful country. Thanks for the great tips! 🍽✨

wooow, so fresh and clean food and for that price. Coming to BKK 16 dec, I got my own apartment with kitchen and everything, will definetly be doing some meal prep aswell so I dont lose the gains 😎💪

Everyone is fit at muscle factory because they are on gear. No judgement. However, that gym is famously known for being the steroid bros gym.

[@toddsellars4694]

Great video. I'm here now and have been going to Thailand since 2004. Big C Supercenters have good options and choices for food prep also. Any troll can do their own research about this.

[@BO-mb8rr]

Can you please give examples and prices of food prep they have?

[@jishani1]

US here, not a huge city so groceries tend to be cheaper here than most places. The chicken was cheaper, the vegetables it was surprising how similar the prices are though. Normally less than a 30 cent difference on what it would cost for the same vegetables here.

[@mykalhenry]

I know how to shop cheap here in the US I prolly could come in around $35 here in the US for that haul (here in Brooklyn NY) for example I can get a large "bag" purdue legs and thighs (not cut, I cut the legs from the thighs later) for .89 per pound in 10 pound bags for $8.90, that's tough to beat, the cheapest way to go in Bangkok and Patts IMO is the street food and 7 11 ezgo meals. I fkg live off that sht when I am there (granted not the most healthy).

[@icanseaclearnow]

Same that haul I could probably get for around $45-$50 dollars depending on what vegetables were on sale in my area. I may have to visit two different stores, but doable. Actually the hot sauce may be the most expensive thing here in the states if you shop right.

[@RealSerie26]

Meal prep is the way to go. Short minded people only think of the monetary cost. Your health is more important. Eating out every once in a while is fine, but everyday is detrimental to your health.

[@practice4089]

Your chicken drums are $1 per pound vs. $4.50 at a supermarket in central FL. I actually expected it to be cheaper for you. Are Lotus' prices higher than other stores/markets?

[@kohtime]

@@practice4089 On the whole Lotus tends to be one of the cheapest but I often get better deals on meat from the big Makro stores. Meat on the bone here is also priced quite highly compared to breast meat for example. In the Uk breast is 3x the price of drums but here they are pretty comparable 🙏

[@JamesLee-hy9bx]

Bro I'm from Trinidad in the Caribbean the chicken alone is 42usd what you have there is like 100usd in stuff or more. That's nuts

[@someguyonyt2831]

Yo. That's f**king crazy 😮

[@takkun11]

As a Trini living in NY it’s even worse here the chicken alone would have been $70 depending on the grocery store and if you wanted “organic”. I don’t even want to think about the rest.

Great job and looks delicious. How do you reheat? Chicken and veg are at different times in a microwave. How do you do it because I want to do the same.

[@infini.tesimo]

In Texas with HEB, all that chicken would have easily floated that total up to $80-100. It's ridiculous.

[@welovedji1116]

I live in Norway... Those 3 beautiful mangoes would cost around 18$, and we can only get that that sweet between june-august. That chicken alone would cost around 28-30$ 18$ 6 protein shakes 20-22 $ for all those greens, veggies is skyrocking in price here. Specially mushrooms 8$ hot sauce 2$ sour cream 4$ did i see bacon? Precooked rice is not a thing here. around 102$ haha. We are 2 adulst and 3 childrens aged 1,6,8. Our monthly food budget now is 1400$/month + 300$ for eating out twice/month. Literally that what we can afford, eating out just twice/month, in thailand ppl can eat out everyday...

[@AdriDuran]

omg tysm for posting this!! My bodybuilding hubby and I are moving over there in 10 months and this was so helpful considering all we eat is chicken and rice 😩😅 How much does a tub of protein powder cost? We heard it is spendy in Thailand 👀

[@theisaiahashleyshow4251]

I forgot the exact cost of protein powder but yes it is a little pricier than the states

@@AdriDuran if you budget for about 2k baht per kilo of protein powder your looking at the middle of the road… can go a little cheaper and obviously there are people willing to take your money if you want to pay more 🙏

If you are in the UK, chicken wings and drumsticks are honestly around the same price as shown in this video!

[@kohtime]

To be honest mate that’s true! What’s little known though is that because the bone in meat is more sought after here, chicken breast is cheap. I’m getting chicken breast at the moment for about 75thb (£1.71) a kilo at Makro in Hua Hin. Same amount of chicken in asda today is £6.49 , so almost 4 times the price in the uk 🙏

[@jetthepanda]

@@kohtime yes, the deboned skinless packs of chicken breast or thigh are much more expensive. A big pack of wings similar amount to shown in video is £1.99 from Sainsbury's, cheaper in Aldi or Lidl. Unpopular opinion, but I think the breast is the worst part of the chicken anyway 😂🙈

[@kohtime]

@ I absolutely agree that chicken breast is the driest and least flavourful, but for some reason seems most popular in the Uk. I lived in Manchester most of my life and chicken breast was always the go to! Either that or roast the whole bird ☺️

Hi Isaiah, this is my first time watching you . I am in Bangkok currently visiting until November 13 and just curious where that grocery market was ? I’d like to go shop there. I just went grocery shopping for my Airbnb yesterday and it cost me ฿4000 which was like $117 USD I didn’t even buy meat only sandwich meat ?.

[@theisaiahashleyshow4251]

That was lotus

[@kohtime]

@@sandymorado4430 Hi Sandy 🙂 to be honest, Thailand can be as cheap or as expensive as you make it. Convenience food, sauces in jars, preserved meats etc are massively inflated and really should be avoided if you want to keep the costs a little lower. Fresh fruit and veg, fresh meat etc are much more affordable excluding veg that struggles to grow here like broccoli for example which in my opinion is almost extortionate. If you find recipes using more local ingredients you will be much better off cost wise. I’ve found that almost any western style dish can be adapted to be much more affordable with a few little changes here in Thailand 🙏

The food is rotten in Thailand, the better of the food goes to restaurants. Food that is imported is very expensive. Your body will adjust to the bacteria over time. There is no way I could come to Thailand for a week. I would have to stay a minimum of 3-6 months. I stayed for almost a year, going all over and still got bubble guts. It's harsh to say the least.
