Supermarkets of Argentina VS Supermarkets in the United States

[@el_Contra]

don't go to supermarkets!!!!! go to local shops, want meat go to the local butcher, want veggies, go to the local veggie shop, want deli go to your local deli, fresh bread go to your local bakery... in Argentina you will find them within block or two... support your local merchants rather than multinational chains... nice of you to mention them

[@JonGrossGringo]

YES! I love the small shops! Especially the small bread shops. There's nothing better!

[@zddxddyddw]

But Coto isn't a multinational company, it's Argentinian.

[@el_Contra]

@@zddxddyddw yes it is...

[@mpdemi]

Hey! Wine is cheaper in Argentina and Chile than in Ecuador because the first two are really good and big wine producers. You’ll see the opposite happens with coffee 😉

[@bigua1428]

You can drink water directly from bobbin in Argentina.

[@ismaelvasquez-vk3it]

soy chileno tus videos de chile de el año 2020 me gustaron jon

[@JonGrossGringo]

A mi también! tengo ganas a volver hacer más videos como de este año :)

[@Remi.M45]

Wonderful content !

[@JonGrossGringo]

Thank you!

[@jorgealberto7621]

Hello, in Argentina traditionally mate can also be drunk with milk or honey. But if you are diabetic you can also use dietary sweeteners. It's comfortable!

[@patriciamendez8865]

Amargo.

[@JonGrossGringo]

Oh yes!!! with milk or honey?! NICE! I've never done that but I've also heard that in some parts of Argentina they drink it with orange soda?

[@ditacastro-cq3nj]

Ese es el terere !

[@robertf.8080]

On no! The chips/salty snacks row was missed! 😢

[@JonGrossGringo]

that's true! I miss the ramitas but in Chile so I would have just been disappointed not to see them in Argentina :)

[@robertf.8080]

@@JonGrossGringo Apparently the Argentina brand is called Pep. Not to be confused with the milk chocolate peppermint patty. 😂 So you would have found ramitas in Argentina.

Cool to see the facts of the place and the environment. "Mr. Chao pescao"

[@JonGrossGringo]

:) It's fun to share these experiences!!!

[@mgk284]

You missed the cold cuts and cheese parts.( fiambre y quesos).

[@JonGrossGringo]

Shoot!! some of my favorite things... You're right!

Vas a encontrar mejor carne en carnicerias de barrio o de los frigorificos directamente.

[@12azsfinest]

Are you still there? I will be there in December 2024 in a couple months Andy suggestions on anything?

[@JonGrossGringo]

I wish I were there! I might be back next month but I haven't been there since January or February of this year.

[@Maverick0749]

Hola 👋 muyy buenos tus videos! Con relación a comprás te diría que en mi casó y pienso cómo muchos otros compramos carné en el lugar que conviene más! En éstos días compro en un frigorífico productor y cuando hay ofertas buenas en supermercado, compró en el supermercado! Hacé años ya que no compro en carnicerias de barrio, porque en general es un poco más caro. Yo siendo de clase media, prefiero el frigorífico y alternó con el supermercado, ni siquiera pienso en ir a una carnicería (tengo una o dos a picas cuadras!) Y con relación al pan, estoy en la búsqueda permanente de el oan nas sabroso. La calidad de las panaderías bajo bastante por la situación económica!

[@halconar]

Interesante el video. Dear, the Argentinean is taller, whiter, etc., not only because of the contribution of Italian immigration. Which, by the way, was not people from the north of Italy, but Mediterranean people, such as Sicilians and Neapolitans, for the most part. The Spaniards who contributed to the Argentine identity, from the wave of the end of the 19th century and during the 20th century, were from the north of Spain, many Galicians, Basques, Asturians, etc. To a lesser extent, Castilians, who, paradoxically, initiated the discovery of America... Also Germans, Slavs, French, Armenians, Arabs and European Jews, among others. That and the smaller proportion of other races for various reasons, such as the Afro and the original. As you will see, it is not so easy to talk about Argentines in any sense ;) Ah! Chilean "dulce de leche", which is not imported from Argentina, does not taste like the one from here. It is different. Nor is it the same as "dulce de cajeta" (made with goat's milk), which tastes more like the consistency of a dessert. Or the "manjar blanco". Buy a water filter. It's cheaper; healthier; more ecological, than buying plastic bottles with stagnant water inside. Greetings.

[@AlfredoCappelli]

The product is called "yerba" after you infuse it with hot water you can call it "mate"

[@JonGrossGringo]

YES!!!! that makes so much sense and no one has ever explained it to me in that way. Thank you!!!

[@alvaromartinez3055]

PERO EL PRECIO DEL VINO, MUCHO DEPENDE DE SU CALIDAD..

[@eliotcassin4272]

Claro, tienes vino anuales, muy baratos, y vinos de alta gama más caros. Y tienes los vinos premium más caros aún. Pero ninguno supera los 100 dólares. El más barato, generalmente un vino anual, para consumo dentro del año, cuesta desde 2 dólares en adelante.

[@lulimoreno]

Coto is last name's owner.

[@1978hugogaston]

Alfredo COTO

[@bostermanboster]

El dueño comenzó con una carnicería, eso creo jaja

[@lulimoreno]

@@bostermanboster sí, al comienzo era sólo carnicería. Con el paso de los años se convirtió en los supers que hoy conocemos.

[@JonGrossGringo]

really?!!! I've learned so much from this video... thank you so much for sharing!

[@arielabril1981]

What part of Argentina is this from

[@claudiopiazza3793]

Buenos Aires

[@merfymac]

23 pounds in Europe you say but i thought that was British currency no other European country

[@Kitiwake]

Ya..i noticed that too... over the years the fact that the Euro is the world's second reserve currency is a strange concept in the world of international finance. The pound....😂

[@lovesongs4mebombom292]

Coto is a normal italian surname 😊

[@JonGrossGringo]

Oh really?!!! My goodness I'm learning so much from your comments today!

[@arielabril1981]

Coto is named for its founder,Alfredo Coto,an ex butcher.

[@JonGrossGringo]

Siiii!!! Ya aprendí eso de otro comentario! Increíble! Yo no sabia!

[@JonGrossGringo]

I'm sorry... It's true... If you live off of the Argentian peso it's horrible right now. I'm hoping things get better for you

[@boink800]

Life is still very difficult in Argentina with that very high inflation. This video was made five months ago and you can see just how much the prices have changed in these five months.

[@ismaelvasquez-vk3it]

el mate es lo mas rico jon

[@JonGrossGringo]

SIIIII!!! Ya estoy tomando mate ahora mismo! que rico!

[@tenorly]

Plus these days - *thanks to that Chucky doll Milei* - the fact that so few Argentines can afford to shop in them anymore. Thanks for the great tour, and All the Best!

You keep comparing Argentina's food to Chile's, I think they are so different...

[@JonGrossGringo]

Very different but very similar... Mate, love of bread, love of meat. It's very similar but very different for sure.
