Food prices have gone up everywhere in the world. We don't have price differences because the majority of supermarkets are kosher here in Israel. Kosher, however does not necessarily mean healthy. Today, there are unfortunately a lot of processed foods although the Ministry of Health requires stickers on products with high sugar, trans fat or high salt. I avoid the chemicals by making my own croutons from left over bread, olive oil and salt. Marinades and salad dressings are easy to make in a blender and are fine in the fridge. I also cook tomato sauce, soup and stews in bulk and freeze. Rarely buy veg and fruit in the supermarkets. We are lucky that we have lots of shuks (markets) and greengrocers with fresher and generally cheaper produce.

Walmart about $1.00 - 4 kosher sausages, hotdog size are $13.99 - Cholev Israel milk $5.50 half gallon - Cholev Israel cream cheese $5.50, Yogurt about $2.00 - Two, yes two beef ribs are $17-$20 - Whole chicken costs $12-18.00 - Stew meat $15.00 - 21.00lb This is before sale prices. No Walmarts, in the US, sell Kosher meat or Cholev Israel. Maybe in a huge community, but if you are in a huge Community, you will shop at a Kosher store. I have never seen a Kosher Walmart. Not saying they don’t exist. Around holiday time things get cheaper. Chicken is the cheapest, but not as cheap as non kosher by a mile.

I love a good bargain! None of the Walmart stores in our area (central Florida) carry kosher meat. I think there's a couple of grocery stores that do. Also, the produce that I find in Walmart is usually not good quality. We do have a store here, Publix, that carries amazing produce. The fruits and veggies last a bit longer than the same from Walmart so, even though it's a little more expensive, it's so worth it. In addition to keeping kosher, due to some health issues, I'm also vegan, gluten-free and I try to do sugar-free and low-carb (but the sugar is hard to give up). My groceries always cost more than my non-kosher friends 🤷♀️ but, what can anyone do? We all have to eat, of course, and we have to be healthy, so I just spend more each year . Although, we're looking to buy a house this year and will have a garden which should lower our food costs. My son-in-law will build my kitchen to be wheelchair-friendly so I can get back to making my food from scratch which is usually quite a bit cheaper. Oh, you talked about different ingredients in the same product from different countries. I did know that but, what really surprised me a couple of days ago, was that in US products, they use so much high fructose corn syrup but other countries will use cane sugar. I wish they would ban the high-fructose corn syrup here. Take care, Sara Malka, and be well. See you soon!

I am also delighted to find kosher certified products from Mexico. I am Mexican on my mom's side. Which is where I get my Sephardic ancestry. I didn't know about my Jewish ancestry till a few years ago. So it's nice that I didn't have to give up some of the Mexican things I grew up with just becauseIdecidedtobecomeobservant. I love seeing Mexican kosher marks. I have joked that my new Jewish hobby is collecting Mexican Hechshers. By the way. The Tajin Mexican snack seasoning sold here in the US is OU certified. It's delicious on fruits and veggies. Melons, mango, and oranges with Tajin are fantastic. If kosher Tajin is available in Canada, I highly recommend it.

Thank you Sara, I save a lot of money when I follow your example. I was surprised by the ingredients in some of the items, like soy sauce, you really have to read labels when you shop & I do enjoy a bargain.

Yes, eggs have gotten very expensive but the specials on eggs have gotten better in the past couple months. I glad to see you check the eggs, i thought i was the only one. I never see people turning over the eggs in the supermarket to check.

"I love a good bargain". Great video, Sara. We are seeing an explosion of "bioengineered food products" in our California grocery stores on all sorts of products that were not previously GMO. Now I try to buy organic as much as possible. Are you seeing the same thing in Canada?

Baby carrots may be convenient, but they don't keep for long and their flavor is terrible compared to regular carrots. Regular carrots stay fresh in my crisper for 4-6 weeks, taste amazing and are SO much cheaper!

I love a good bargain. My grandfather grew up on a farm. He taught us to buy our meat at a Jewish market (we're not Jewish) telling us that Jews were the only ones who knew how to butcher meat correctly any more. He was especially adamant that chicken had to be Kosher. Hot dogs, too! They have to be "Hebrew National". G-d bless you and yours, Sara.

I love a good bargain Hi Sara, thanks again for a fantastic video. It's comforting to see in Canada as in US groceries are expensive not good but we're all in this together. Great tips, and I wanted to mention the kitchen knives you recommended in a previous video I bought a few and my husband and I absolutely love them. Thank you so much! Good bless and stay safe

People that don't have any restrictions will still buy kosher items, we're not making sure that we're not picking out kosker (or halal) items. Single packed noodles are always more expensive than the bigger packs, especially when they come with spices and sauces and such. I get 2 kinds of instant noodles, one of them costs 0,89 euros and the other kind costs around 3 euros for one pack. No idea if either one of them are kosher, since I don't need to pay attention to such things.

These were helpful tips on picking produce. I’m trying to make more vegetable soups and the like. Thank you for showing how to read a label as well. I have food allergies and I am trying to eat kosher more as well.

Hi Sara: I love a good bargain. Naomi is such a wonderful helper. 🙂After you shared about the tuna fish, I jumped up to grab one that I recently bought at Costco. Happily, I can report that there weren't any "fillers" in their Wild Planet and Ahi Tunas. I live in North Carolina, USA, and am astounded at the rate of price increase in food. Thank you for sharing your life with us...yours is my absolute fav channel. 💙🤍

Hello, Sara Malka! I love a good bargain! I just read an article today about Target and Walmart possibly doing away with self checkout! I feel the same way about it that you do! Grrr! Apparently, there is a big problem with theft at self checkout. I'm sorry that the stores lose money from it but glad that it might mean the end of self checkout. Here's hoping! I love that you and your daughters shop together. I used to help my mom shop when I was their age too. I learned a lot from her. She taught me many of the same things about shopping that you talked about in your video today. Thank you for sharing your blessed life with us. I'm so grateful for you. Love from the midwest U.S., M. Kelley McGinley ♥️♥️♥️

I can't even believe it's gone up by 40% in two years....wow, wow, wow! And yet, I'm sure you still save so much by cooking and not eating out! You are amazing, Sarah Malka, thank you for your videos!

It’s so interesting that a lot of the product brands that are kosher, or ones that I prefer, although I am not Jewish. I definitely see a difference in the quality for example in store brand, mayonnaise and comparison to Hellmann’s. And the price of groceries. Oh my goodness, I have to deal with that bit of fear in my gut every time I walk into the store living on a very limited pension.

I shop much like you, quality and ingredient content matter to me. But you mentioned a couple I didn’t know about. Yes, I have seen ingredient differences between countries, but also same product simply sold in other parts of the USA, or even between stores within the community. That was fun to see the comparison from a year or two ago. Thank you for sharing another great video.

I was not aware of the whole ketchup recipe this. Went to check the recipe sold in Portugal and it has tomatoes, alcohol vinegar, sugar, salt, spices and aromatic herbs extracts...

My grandmother always taught us to never buy dented cans. You are not alone. I shop a little differently. I hit the center non refrigerated items first , then produce, frozen, meat & dairy last.

I Love a good bargain!! Great video Sara. The price comparisons were interesting especially as so many kosher products were actually cheaper. I think I will start looking for kosher products where I shop, although I don’t think there will be very many. I couldn’t believe the price of the eggs you were buying. Where I live (UK) they haven’t gone up that much, but apples and pears are far more expensive than 2 years ago and olive oil is almost prohibitively expensive now, well for me at any rate. Hope you and your family have a good week. 💜🙏💜

Wow, I was shocked by the Tuna. I live in the United Kingdom and on most of our tins, especially the ones that I buy the only ingredients are Tuna and Spring Water. No added preservatives or sulphites.

It’s great to see you! It’s great to have a doctor comment on the additives in the food. This is becoming a huge issue and people are taking more interest in considering it!❤
@JenniferMassey714776 ай бұрын
I actually work at a Walmart in Wisconsin and it’s pretty interesting how the Canadian store you’re shopping in is pretty similar to my store. Although I am Christian I also find myself occasionally looking for Kosher symbols on food because of watching your videos and I love a good bargain myself . I hope you and your family have a wonderful week.
