Russian Supermarket. "Real Russia" ep.61

[@ammolitegemstone]

This supermarket is cleaner and better organized than the supermarkets in my Canadian city.

[@SpigotsMcGee]

I only counted like five customers…

[@Honey360Bee]

I rather enjoyed watching this. I always love to learn about other countries and the people.

[@realrussiablog]

Thanks a lot! Very pleasant to hear! Don't forget to subscribe and watch more of our videos!

[@lizardking5237]

The security boxes in the front of the store is a pretty good idea, they should have them here in the US !!

[@Allamut2909]

+Chad O This is not made to prevent someone stealing from you, it is to prevent you to steal something from shop in your bag. You put your bags in this security boxes and then take it back after paid for goods.

[@archibaldhadock5811]

We have in Spain too.

[@WachdByBigBrother]

+beavis simpson In the U.S., most people leave the stuff from the previous store in the trunk of their car. You can put the cold stuff in a cooler with ice in the trunk if necessary also. Do cars get robbed a lot or people ride buses more in Russia, Germany, and Spain where they have these lockers?

[@lizardking5237]

WachdByBigBrother yup, i do think you have a point there :) and besides, who would want o put their stuff in some nasty old locker anyway !!!

[@santiagoarestegui]

lizard king it is the same right here in Peru. There are safe boxes in the shopping markets.

[@happydorkgirl]

I've wanted to find a channel like this for YEARS. Wonderful tour! I am American and was quite young when the USSR dissolved. I remember feeling like there was suddenly a big mystery world to discover and I've been fascinated by Russia and Russian culture ever since. This is the sort of topic I'm most curious about. Thank you so much for letting me see Russia as it is. I'm going to subscribe right now.

[@amc3]

I like this cool Russian guy with very good English as well.

[@user-vf4pb9dt1r]

He did seem like a very cool guy.

[@pianocrisante90]

I am very surprised because not many people in Russia speak English.

[@elviraelk2030]

@Cricfusion Maybe not "most", but many Russians do speak English. Do many people in your country speak Russian? Nope! Why? 🙃

[@elviraelk2030]

@Cricfusion Да?! Это очень приятно! И я тоже надеюсь, что таких людей, как Вы, изучающих русский, будет всё больше. Всего Вам доброго и успехов в русском!

[@elviraelk2030]

@Cricfusion И Вам спасибо! Приятно было общаться.

[@danno698299]

Oh how I miss Mother Russia...what a place! My visit seems like a dream to me now. Such beautiful people, food, drink, nature. I hope that someday I can grasp the spirit of Russia and her people!

[@danno698299]

Oklahoma :)

[@danno698299]

Yes, I am from America! Right in the middle of the country. We do not see the Russians as enemies...not for many, many years, at least! Where are you from in Russia? :)

[@danno698299]

I'm sorry you feel that way...but please don't judge all of us by the actions of our government, comments on the internet, or the media. To answer your question, I have heard of Tula (funny because the city that I live in Oklahoma is Tulsa)...the closest I have been to you in Russia was Tver. :)

[@danno698299]

Yes! I love pryaniks I did not know what that was called!

[@danno698299]

I also want you to know that despite everything you have said, I will never consider Russians to be my mortal enemies. :)

[@gammondog]

I see that you traded in the old ghetto cruiser for a nice new car. Congratulations! Thanks to the Matrix for allowing the tour and the mentioning of prices.

[@judyholiday653]

This was the first video I watched of Real Russia at the time I was checking out different countries grocery prices and then I became hooked on Real Russia no fake no bullshit!!

[@kickpublishing]

I like how you say Sausages - that's my new ring tone

[@nrrork]

That's so similar to stores here in Michigan that it reaches Uncanny Valley territory. Because it's really close, but just a little different, and that's unsettling. ^_^ Even the prices are about what I'd expect to pay down at the Meijer a few blocks away. Except the good vodka was a lot cheaper. The fresh BREAD and produce was cheaper, too. Especially the bread, you can GET good, fresh bread here, but it costs way more.

[@ValisFan3]

Thanks for making this, I like seeing videos of everyday life in other countries. The prices are low, but not as low as I expect them to be. A few of the items seem to cost more than US items like the Jack Daniels. I always thought vodka would be a lot cheaper than it is in the US, but its really not that cheap in Russia.

[@АлександрГригорьевич-и9н]

Russian government is struggling with alcoholism and therefore the price of vodka is high and it is right

[@Constructor11]

There is a minimum allowed price for vodka in Russia. It was about 200 roubles = 6$ not so long ago, but now it is 180 roubles = less than 3$ for today.

[@carolesmith4864]

Gotta love the internet.

[@strangersound]

+Carole Smith Amen. :)

[@evid59]

Sergei, if you want to open some "Western Eyes" to the foods of Russia then take your camera to the Markets, especially in the Krasnodar region. I spent the equivalent of $10 Australian and bought enough food for my fiancee and I for 3 days. The food was delicious and the marketeers would allow you to taste test - They were very friendly.

[@paulanderson6434]

Great video. I'm always interested in everyday things in other cultures as compared to mine. You are commended for simply ignoring the ignorant remarks of others. Every culture/county has its idiots. Very Interesting.

[@insolentjackal716]

Remains me of Borat

[@gkk2001]

Thanks for letting us see what your life is like. And your English is excellent. There seem to be many more similarities than differences. Food selection is excellent.

[@espido]

everything is turquoise and orange ? bad color correction i guess

[@grantquinones]

[@i4004]

or SECAM color system wrong conversion?

[@katiekawaii]

I could watch you point out foods and convert the cost into American dollars for hours. It's strangely fascinating.

[@justintahair9119]

that is but if i was traveling there i would like to have russian currency so i have the correct exchange rate

[@lognomelchorambas5364]

katie kawaii he is a mathematician

[@LizKS48]

This was really interesting. I'm looking forward to watching more from you. I have always wondered what it's like in Russia, day to day living, shopping etc. I love the price of bread! 80 cents?! We just paid $4.99 for a loaf! :) It hasn't always been this way has it?

[@josephmauriello8436]

Excellent, very sincere. Brings me back to my time in Russia with my girlfriend and her family. I am 100% American but after spending much time with her in Russia I have developed a deep appreciation of the people. I wish that my inept president would understand that Russians may actually be one of our true allies.Wish you the best, keep up the good work. Spaciba...paca.

[@jeffreynerhood1096]

Couldn't agree with you! :-)

[@ekamana2414]

sorry, its u ar mistaken deeply, Russia can never be a friend of anyone.

[@ElAsaltaCulos2]

The job of our President and the government at large is to antagonize other countries and have an ever present boogeyman. That is how they consolidate power and economic power. People are so afraid they are willing to send their kids to the meat grinder, and pay the government to do so

[@davidrobinson2034]

Lol why is everything red, white, and greenish blue

[@Moowing]

A bad video filter is applied

[@aleksandrgar]

David Robinson that's due to color correction, isn't really filter, camera sensors don't recognize colors, if they color corrected the video according to their liking that's the end result

[@Kareszkoma]

I would say it's because of the captured content. I tried to film in a supermarket before and everything was ugly yellowish, and every surface was mirroring and overall it was kind of bad. I guess this is how they repaired it.

[@kara95tv8]

He used some program on this video production that's all

[@wanrazul]

Cause you're colorblind?

[@KristofferTrolle]

Russia have greater economical freedom than america and europa now, pretty funny right :) Btw awesome channel, love your work! Keep it up!

Do you have any proof of this? Can you give us some examples please?

[@tjs200]

[@solvingpolitics3172]

Real Russia I LOVED your video. It is very obvious to me the amount of work & enthusiasm you put into your show! I will be doing my own show in the near future. One of the concepts I believe in to build a better world is to start children at the youngest of ages from different countries doing videos for each other to help solve their unique problems. That way they grow up virtual: friends, brothers, something substantive together. What do you think?

[@likethepear]

In Soviet Russia shopping cart pushes YOU!

[@ElCid48]

You mean vodka pushes the shopping cart that pushes you! LOL!

[@kingdomcome1617]

FernestHall After editing his video, he realized the green velvet suite did not look as well on camera lol. Kiinda has a parody feel, but I enjoyed watching the video. Funny thing, the first person I met that moved to the US from Russia (and USSR) was named Sergey. Good man.

+FernestHall It makes the whole thing look like the 'There's gotta be a better way' shot from an infomercial

[@meercreate]

I quite like the look

[@Duckzilla123]

Minimum wage in Russia is $2 per hour - so taking that into consideration I can say it's actually expensive...

[@privatear2001]

Thanks for the video, my friend. I used to help run a hostel here in the USA and we used to get a lot of Russian students here for the summer. I became fascinated with the culture and them. Still have many of them as friends to this day. Always wondered about stuff like the everyday lives of Russians. And this gives me a good glimpse into it. Always wanted to know this very stuff. Shows me that it isn't so different over there at all. You're doing your part in promoting peace because a lot of people seem to have wrong views of what people in other countries besides the good ol USA are like. I try to tell them that they have families, jobs, drive cars, worry about bills, etc, just like we do here. Great video!!!!

[@adamsangie1]

Just found your channel. I love it! Thank you so much for sharing all the places especially your Russian supermarkets. I saw a youtube video awhile back that showed a run down no food market in Russia. I felt bad for Russia and thought it was a place I would not want to go. It was scary! So far everything you have shown only proves Russia is a fine place to live. I love the culture there. This supermarket is bigger than most in my hometown. Greetings from Atlanta Georgia :)

[@sammcdee]

[@definitelycortez3408]

Very interesting and enjoyable to watch. Of course, here in USA we are not shown many good things about Russia, so I am so happy to find your channel. I love learning about other countries and cultures and have loved visiting other countries. Of course now with rising prices, rising taxes and NOT rising wages I can no longer afford vacations let alone travel to other countries so I travel via internet(but cannot meet the people, see the museums or try the food this way lol. I did find the packaging colors rather strange. I noticed most are either greenish/blue, orange or white. Are these packaged by state run companies? Product packaging here has wild and crazy, chaotic colors by comparison. I am looking forward to watching your other videos.

[@ЕленаМаксимова-з7з]

Red color draws attention to the product. Cold colors (white, blue, green) are associated with freshness. Perhaps that is why these colors are used for packaging.

[@Victor_CoverMusic]

Какой-же это Супермаркет??? На здании же крупными буквами написано ГИПЕРМАРКЕТ!!! =)))

Thank you for sharing. Nice Super Market. Here in America, one of our largest chains is called "Kroger".....headquarterd in Cincinnati, Ohio. Looks very much the same. Your prices are better, things are expensive here. Thank you again. Stephen, Ohio U.S.A.

[@ldoyle6424]

This video is a huge eye opener. I, for one, have always imagined grocery shopping in Russia as much smaller with a lot less selection. In fact it appears bigger than the Atlantic Superstore where I shop. Is it open 24 hours a day 7 days a week?

[@computerscientist5953]

Stanly Tailor yes, we call it big supermarkets

[@nivlick]

I have been to Russia on two occasions and both times I was amazed. The first when I was very young shopping was very interesting. You go to the counter say bread you pick what you want then you get a ticket then in the centre of the shop you pay and get a receipt then go back and pick up your bread and so on. And no bag no paper to wrap up in nothing you where just handed it. The second trip was a time of transition but still I was amazed at how it had changed very different and much the same as here in Australia.

[@xrqkradio]

We are being lied to about Russia, here in the USA; and for a long time. Good to see the truth!

[@LawmanIL]

Looks like any other grocery store...

[@francopellegrin4437]

They have the same thing just under a different name for example if you go to Aldi to buy something the non Aldi brand will be more expensive but you can always Nearly the same thing will be cheaper because it's the home brand. it works the same way as this.

[@katiekawaii]

+Agnar Agfayet (Rustam) Exactly. In the US, we call it "generic" or "store brand." Cheaper versions of the most common products produced by the store itself (or at least branded by the store; sometimes their products are actually made by the major brand on behalf of the store and then packaged under the store brand).

[@katiekawaii]

+opl500 Neither were the ones in the video.

[@Daristia86]

I am from Indiana ,USA. I'd say that supermarket seems very similar to North American markets. I have never seen a store with lockers for your things so that no one can accuse you of stealing, that is a good idea. I like how your basic foods are a lower that way a family could still eat. I don't know much about Russia maybe the minimum wage could be lower? Most bottles of liquor are $15 to $20 where I live. The cheapest loaf of bread is $1.50. Milk is almost $4.00 a gallon (I drink almond milk its better for you and cheaper). Bananas are 50 cents a pound. It is almost $4.00 for a bag of salad spinach. I don't eat meat but if I recall correctly it can cost about $4.00 a pound.

[@zuhairsazari2062]

Well.. This kinda breaks all the stereotypes on Russia.. Haha this is pretty much the same thing in my country.

[@ronwilliams357]

See Russia, we told you capitalism would work.

[@largol33t1]

+Ron Williams And a RUSSIAN economics professor once visited my university to give a speech about the link between economics and politics. One question the audience kept asking her was: does a capitalist society seem doomed to failure no matter how well it works in Russia and will it survive? Interestingly, she suggested that it would survive mostly because people would be exposed to things they had never even seen before and would embrace them more out of curiosity. I had some doubts (this was in 1995) about this but am a little bit surprised that it worked out far better than I ever expected. Note that I did not say it would fail. I thought it would survive but not particularly well as some hard-liners would reject it but the majority will embrace it. PS: Russians in my university LOVED to party. They were also the most laid-back personalities I've ever come across. But they make good friends if you get to know them. Sadly, times change. They have to move away when graduation comes. Maybe one day, I'll make a trip to Ulyanovsk to see one or two of them.

[@mr.baldpity7743]

Ron Williams ita not the Russian people's fault for communism. It was the jews

[@SuperSerge111]

+Ron Williams, we in Russia are not theorists. We really tasted both socialism and capitalism. I think, I will not be wrong if I'll say that vast majority of Russians hate capitalism as well as its bringers - Gorbachev and Eltzin. They are considerd by Russians as traitors and thiefs. And if will be at least a small chance to return socialism we will do it.

[@shortimer52]

I was about to say the same thing.

[@anastasiaalen5328]

It's just a bad video filter.

[@YOCARAJO100]

0:30 Not clean his car even for a TV show. 5:21 What do you have against James Bond? $90 dollars for a Martini bottle???!!! 6:25 Chicken is very cheap in Peru only 20% of that price mentioned, also the fish. Conclusion: A nice market, plenty of food, nice people and no one single nigga at sight...good job Mr. Putin.

[@terriwest9435]

Thank you. I enjoy watching everyday life or things in different countries.It's amazing how similar our experiences are

[@joshuagenes]

Nice store, nice prices by American standards.

[@realrussiablog]

Joshua Smith Thanks for comment!

[@crnjo9575]

***** How are the prices now with Russia banning all those food imports?

[@randoman1337]

are your prices really that high? i would pay less for everything he showed.

[@joshuagenes]

yannick van niel Prices are higher but earning are also much higher in America. The high prices stems from the high cost of labor and any tax burdens. Russians have a flat tax which makes things simpler and the taxes less burdensome. In addition Putin has a difficult time collecting taxes bringing the prices down further with respect to people wages. This is a high end grocery and prices are going to be higher than haggling on the street but also more convenient.

[@randoman1337]

Joshua Smith in my country most normal Jobs Will pay better than in the usa. The prices Are much lower too . Maybe thats why my country is n1 in food according to oxvam novib . :)

[@rossinumero1]

Very interesting!! Supermarket in Russia are very similar to our supermarket in Italy!! I don't know but I though russian don't have shops like this.. but wow! U have everything u want!! :)

[@prlygrlonline]

This was great! I loved seeing a lot of American brands on your shelves! I love going to a local food grocery here in Los Angeles called Kings Market that carries many Russian food products and treats! Kvass is a great beverage! : ) But you didn't cover the roe...the caviar which is something I thought was common in Russia. Not sure! Any how it was great! Alles Gute! : )

[@andy._.garsia]

Prlygrl Moran I wouldn't say the caviar is a common and popular food in Russia. It's just one more stereotype. In fact, you can easily buy the caviar in russian stores, but it's pretty pricey. Isn't it the same for any place in Europe or the USA?

[@Valentin_I]

Please, remove the filter that looks like 2-strip Technicolor also some contrast and show the real colors.

[@Valentin_I]

***** Okay

[@shirleyshirley9182]

Very interesting. Thanks for sharing. Great video, I enjoy watching your videos. I'd love to visit Russia.

[@laetrille]

I love the Russian people, but you all have to admit that capitalism made Russia better.

[@cyberspaceout]

They admit it I love russians I live around alot of them and when hilliary said that shit we were laughing so hard Iknow of many people that vote for trump just becuse of hilliary bs comming out of her mouth.

[@agoogleuser6902]

Do they HAVE to admit it? *rolls eyes

[@ltschriscrucker]

Not really. It turned the country into a disaster in the 90s, but luckily Putin fixed up some of the mess. That's why the West hates him so much now. Anyway, even today, Russia is far away from what it used to be during Soviet times...

[@sebastianstevens8988]

Great success

[@alexden7714]

Richer, but not better

[@madhatter2646]

Why does it look so gray and gloomy? Are all eastern european countries like that?

[@mafelkins]

These supermarkets backed by the good old USA! I remember when most store shelfs were mostly empty!

[@relaxationstation7374]

Unpleasant misunderstanding with security = An All Expenses Paid Trip To The Gulag!

[@jimajams7080]

Greetings From South Australia.. Wow that is an amzing insight into life and shopping in Russia.. I never knew til now what it is like and so interesting, the only negative I have is, why is the products nearly all monochrome...Blueish green and black labels? Weird.. I should send you a video of our shops.. We call a basket, a trolley here too...

[@Semiosphere]

Greetings from Finland. I just found your channel a couple of days ago and I absolutely love your reality show. Keep up the the good work! :)

[@malibu64]

I loved this video! This supermarket looks way cooler than any of the local supermarkets near me. It's really exciting to see what everyday life is like on the other side of the world. Subscribed!

[@DBSpy1]

I would have no ideal at all what to do much less get around in Russia,none. And that does not even count staying away from American haters,none :>( California

[@justinblake8521]

Why do all the packaged food products look like the hygiene products? Every items looks the same.

[@SubidubidubiDu1]

Haha we too say Matritsa for Matrix, Domaca Kuhinja Home Cooking (or Home Kitchen) Riba Fish, Chay Tea, Voda Water, Pivo Beer Myaso Meat but Sergey where are the clerks? I don't see anyone standing behind the shelves/pults haha ideal for shoplifting. I hope there are no security cameras watching over. The products seem a bit expensive, imagine the stuff you could buy in a supermarket in Serbia for 7 dollars. You see prices are cool, but it's all in vain when you don't get your income you can't buy anything. And I laughed hard when you ran up to that woman to grab the milk on 3:20 she was probably like Bratva is coming to get me lol.
