I couldn't get over how clean the baskets in the store were, totally new and spotless. Here they are quite dirty but I never paid attention to that but now will. I think someone must really clean up those carrying baskets there and the store was super clean looking with food items wrapped.

Here as well in London. At times i am trying to choose which one is the cleanest. I am very fussy when it comes to this and during the covid times i will take some paper towel to put it on top of the basket or trolley or if ever i see some alcohol wipes in the shop i will clean it first. LOL. 😷 🤭😏

Over here in Germany the baskets are usually quite dirty. No maintenance. Yikes. Sometimes I qm afraid to touch it. During Covid they used to have personnel who disinfected the baskets after each customer. Because of the handle form, the handles started to mold. This didn't feel well either 😅 In your videos everything looks so clean and new. In the shops also. :)

@9:25 when you were chopping your garlic, I wanted to give you some info about the antioxidant benefit of garlic, Allicin.💖 When I went through breast cancer in 2016, I would visit a center for people dealing with cancer where you can take various classes for free. I took a cooking class where they teach you some healthy cooking recipes. One of things they taught us was that garlic was a good antoixidant called Allicin. However, for the antioxidant to become active, first you do what you want with your garlic (mince, dice, grate etc). Then after you do this, you leave it on the side for 10 minutes. Then you can use it for your cooking. They said, you have to cut the garlic however you want, let it sit for 10 minutes (which is important) and this will activate the Allicin. If you for example, crush your garlic and add it to your recipe right away. You will not get the benefit of Allicin at all. Just a thought I wanted to share with you from my breast cancer journey.💖

One serving of almond milk is the equivalent of about three almonds. See if you can make your own by blending a few almonds with water and a pinch of salt, and sugar if you like. You can strain out the flesh if you don't want it, but the fiber is good. Oat milk is easy to make too, by soaking instant oats till soft then blending, then straining out the solids. It's very good for you and delicious!

[@theplantslover51]

This is a good advice because if you check those super market almond and oat milds you will realize they are only containing a very low percentage of almonds and oats !!!

​@@NGeo-ci3qjэто изначально нелогичное, нелепое, глупое и просто ошибочное мышление: "лучше ..., чем как / что / с чем / с кем попало". Да, лучше вообще не рождаться, чем родиться в какой попало семье - то есть, лучше вообще не попробовать жить, чем жить как попало... Нет! Избавься от этого инфантильного и максималисткого синдрома жертвы и попробуй улучшить свою жизнь! Человек это биосоциальное животное, которое не может быть одиноким. Если рассуждать объективно, то нам придется обратиться к царице всех наук математике, к точной науке, а конкретнее к статистике - где нам становится ясно, что среди одиноких людей в процентном соотношении несоразмеримо больше страдающих ментально людей, чем среди людей, у которых есть отношения. Среди одиноких людей гораздо больше наркоманов и суицидников, людей, которые запустили себя. Все начинается с оправдания "это лучше, чем с кем попало" и заканчивается известно чем. Когда у человека есть вторая половинка, ему есть ради кого стараться в свое же благо, ради кого расти личностно, а не опускать руки, потому что ты наедине с собой и можно позволить себе все вредные привычки, ведь никто не осудит, как и не поддержит твои хорошие начинания. Это нескончаемый лабиринт по поиску смысла жизни. Если бы все люди придерживались такого мышления, то нас бы не было, ведь это "лучше", чем «какие попало дети» от «кого попало».

​@@mistyvioletconservative.3889 Все люди живущие в цивилизации полагаются друг на друга ибо так устроено человеческое общество. Каждый человек эгоист, но только самый большой эгоист (и к тому же глупый) это будет отрицать. Невозможно полагаться только на свои силы и только дурак учится на своих ошибках, тогда как умный на чужих. Поэтому и люди сначала объединились в племена, а потом племена объединились в нации. Чем больше людей - тем больше решений возникающих проблем, тем быстрее люди развиваются и тем проще выжить. Нас спас коллективный разум. В противном случае человечество бы вымерло ибо нас истребили бы другие виды, которые не полагаются только на самих себя. По одиночке мы никто, а вместе сила. Это правило работает со всеми видами, но особенно с людьми, у которых нет других преимуществ кроме интеллектуального объединения и совместного развития.

Watching from California, I am amazed by the prices. Although I'm fortunate that the selection is wide and the cost is low relative to the rest of my country due to growing so much food in our own state, it's still SO much higher than your prices that I'm starstruck! When I visited Japan we noticed low prices of food compared with home, but we thought it was mostly due to being a time of the exchange rate in our favor. And we could not cook while in hotels, of course, so we only saw prepared food prices and didn't notice ingredient cost. Thank you for showing this shopping! Your channel is really lovely!

[@deanronson6331]

I live in Texas, and I too was surprised by the low grocery prices in Japan but for a different reason - not because they are lower than here but by the fact that they are almost comparable to American food prices. When I was younger, I remember reading about exorbitant food prices in Japan, so either the Japanese government is doing something right to bring them down, or American food industry mafia have been jacking up our prices because they can, using COVID as an excuse. Everything seems to be much more expensive in California because of the taxes your government has imposed on all sectors of economy to pay for their state's pet projects.

[@NGeo-ci3qj]

Do not forget prices per kg!

[@kementari]

@@NGeo-ci3qj I feel silly. You're absolutely right. Accounting for exchange rate and kg vs lb, these are pretty much exactly the same prices I pay (our sprouts are still a little more expensive, for some reason - probably just a less common ingredient here). Thanks for solving that one for me!

The individually wrapped carrot is just too cute 😂

[@deanronson6331]

It's a way of charging you more for it.

[@TinaDostal]

I was shocked 👀

[@flauschie8281]

I don't think, that's cute, I think about the much more waste 🙈. Here you can also buy single carrots ( or other vegetable or fruit) without any wrapping.

Over usage of plastic

I love 💗 it! So so adorable! And they’re all same size!!!!! All It needs are 🥕 bows around it LOL 😂❤Unbelievable!😮

[@loubock3238]

Excellent job Lou, such well made videos. I'm sure you have had lab work done regarding your dizziness. Low iron was my culprit, now I take iron medication. Look forward to you sharing your life with us. Be well and all the best to you.

[@laurelarmstrong4535]

Very. Interesting. I like seeing how other countries live. I’m in the middle of the USA. I appreciate your cooking healthy food and taking care of yourself.

I hope japanese supermarkets will start one day to use less plastic :( not every carrot needs to be extra wrapped

[@triarb5790]

It is utterly ridiculous!!

[@birdchoyce4332]

I love the way everything is wrapped separately for cleanliness and safety. I know it's not good for the environment, but if the plastic can be repurposed that would help, imo!

[@boxheadplastics8716]

I totally agree, everything is in plastic no wonder our world is dying

[@beverlyledbetter4906]

I love the way she lays the groceries in the cart. I always stand mine up. America!😄

[@famprima]

I agree. Everything is plastic wrapped, every cookie per piece.. wow.

[@InterruptingCow]

Hello! I want to thank you for this video. This is the first video I’ve come across from your channel, and I’m loving it. I have some anxiety and sadness issues I’ve been experiencing lately, and watching this video was incredibly soothing to me. I’m definitely going to check out your other videos. Sending hugs from the suburbs northwest of the Metropolitan Washington, DC area.

Great prices! Here everything costs at least double, something even more. So much plastic! Everything is packed. Plastic and aluminum in the kitchen.

Little tip with frozen prawns just run them under cold water to defrost,( they will be washed and remove the ice),microwave can make them tough.

[@Tobazhniazhi]

Omg everything is so tiny, clean, and well organized in Japan I love it

[@pnna.b.seimont9640]

Я бы воду после варки шпината не выливала и варила бы в ней рис 😉 Спасибо за видео . Я проголодалась 🤗вкусно выглядит

[@joannabeltran2643]

Everything is packaged 😮

[@Eissara]

Best wishes for your stay with lots of nice memories. As for the pot and spinach, you can if you like cut up the spinach before blanching it.

[@donnalorenzo3752]

I found you last week by accident. I look for videos about Japan and Japanese recipes. I love how you fill your day with activities that promote a fulfilling life. I too live alone. I will be 63 this coming weekend. I am Puerto Rican and I make Puerto Rican food most nights. I love how you prepare your meals. I enjoy the trips to the supermarket. I have one question. How big is your apartment? As an American (Puerto Ricans are US citizens) we have huge kitchens with big appliances. I admire how you always get the job done efficiently. I hope to see more videos. Also, why did you go to Japan to work? Have a bless day. Keep the videos coming. I adore them.

[@elizabethnilsson1815]

I love your cooking and learn from you despite I am old and live in Europe. Send my love to you from the UK

[@lawsin4761]

I just came across your videos today and I just want to say you are an inspiration. You are a kind and sweet soul and it wants my heart to know you give back because you knew hardships growing up. Keep up the wonderful work and life! Bless you from Canada!
