No 🤢 🤮

[@irinap7389]

You can try horse meat/sausages in Kazakhstan plus in tatarstan within Russia )

[@truthinthefaceoftyranny]

you asked if we would be "game enough to try horsemeat"... unequivocally NO. However, where my family comes from, they eat cod tongues salted, dipped in flour and pan fried until golden. Even this I say NO.

[@joemc111]

Russell great show.

[@dustyacd]

Absolutely yes to horse meat

[@RussianTravels]

It’s really cool to see a supermarket from Uzbekistan. Thanks for showing us. 👍

[@TravellingwithRussell]

My pleasure! I was only there for 3 days, I really enjoyed my short time there.

[@user-bt2hu9ue5k]

Ого вы и туда добрались, привет Узбекистану, Самарканд где я родилась и мое детство прошло. ❤❤❤

[@TravellingwithRussell]

Вау, так приятно. В следующий раз я хочу вернуться и исследовать больше мест за пределами Ташкента. Спасибо за просмотр. )) Люди, которых я встретил в городе, были очень дружелюбны и гостеприимны.

[@user-wg2fs7qs1b]

Здравствуйте Луиза как здоровье вы аткуда сычас 😊?

[@jumpweed]

Russell, it is EAST! You HAVE to visit the farmer's market. The eastern tradition is to buy meats and produce at the market.

[@TravellingwithRussell]

I am going to have a video of the Bizaar very soon on the channel. IT was mind blowing the amount of food they had for sale inside.

[@jumpweed]

​@@TravellingwithRussell EAT some good there- they say it's incredible.

[@Summer-3]

Meats they killed?

[@genrymorgan9141]

Thanks Ken.

[@user-dz6yh3en3u]

We liked the video,✨👍✨ and we are waiting for the video with Uzbekistan bazaar 🤗👌

[@TravellingwithRussell]

Soon. ))) Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@ytr8989]

In Uzbekistan they have tea shops were you can buy various teas. Uzbekistan supermarkets are similar to the U.S., crowded and noisy 😂 In Russia the shoppers were fairly quiet.

[@VladislavJavadov]

Yes! The first thing I noticed when I started watching is noise.

[@jimbotron70]

South is south everywhere 😂

[@andreanagy4801]

Very impressed. Spacious,clean plenty of choices according to me. Buscuits by weight is really smart. We dont have ot here, Thanks Russell.🥰🙏

[@TravellingwithRussell]

I love the idea of biscuits by weight also. Plus, they work out cheaper than branded packaged biscuits also.

[@raywasabi2900]

Omg.. I can't wait for the next video from the bazaar!😋😛

[@TravellingwithRussell]

Coming soon!

[@MegaMusikMan]

okay im jealous now, i really wanna go to Uzbekistan, i have made Plov two times, and i really wanna try it in Uzbekistan at some point.

[@TravellingwithRussell]

I posted a couple of pictures on my Telegram of the restaurant I went to, to eat Plov. It was so interesting to see the huge cauldrons they were making it in. t.me/travellingwithrussell/2275

In the 3 days I was there, people were amazing.

[@Stas-Garin]

Местные, наверное, впервые увидели снимающего человека)))

[@TravellingwithRussell]

Возможно, ко мне подходило много людей, интересующихся тем, что я снимаю. Хотя местные жители очень добрые и дружелюбные. Они так приветствовали кого-то из другой страны, приехавшего к ним в гости.

[@jumpweed]

Ой, нет- это же Ташкент! На ютюбе много видео оттуда.

[@BGtravels]

I doubt.

[@monkrock8762]

Magnum is a supermarket chain from Kazakhstan. Two years ago this network entered the Uzbekistan market

[@bigrod1745]

Here in the st Louis area we have plastic shopping carts also they are trying new plastic shopping carts where you can check out from the shopping cart it's something new they are starting in a few grocery stores here,the new carts allows you too shop then pay at your cart with your debt/credit card does any one else have that The local market is called schnucks

[@Macc504]

It’s even better than Swedish markets where i live in now. I have lived in Uzbekistan than in Moscow and used to go to supermarkets and buy some tasty and fresh cooked healthy meals. But in Sweden not you can buy only frozen food 😢and burgeers or ham salami and snacks 😢😂

[@user-ik5cz8ie7p]

[@niks966]

Awesome

[@TravellingwithRussell]

Thank you. ))

[@alienfrommarss]

I never knew the frozen food section was so different than ours in Canada, its neat to see that all those markets always have cheap fresh bread too! Horse meat a bit of culture shock 😮😂❤

[@TravellingwithRussell]

All of the fresh bread is all made right in the store, so it's much easier to create lower prices that way.

[@Maria-ej4gt]

Была летом в Узбекистане. Их национальный хлеб невероятно вкусный, много где продается.

[@TomTom-bh2wf]

The first time I was in Canada I had culture shock from seeing that you guys sell milk in bags. BTW, my favorite Canadian store is the giant tiger.

[@terrylynn9984]

Greetings from quite warm Canada, we saw robins yesterday and people wearing shorts.....another great video Russell, love your channel ❤

[@johnslanicky]

Thanks for the walkabout, good video. 👍 I’m impressed with the cleanliness and spaciousness of the store.

[@larrygdwl]

Салому Алейкум Рассел. G"Day mate. You are doing a great job. Good luck Havea good day , mate

[@susan4916]

Florida Cookies??? No way! I would like order some shipped to me here in Florida. We do NOT have Florida Cookies in the good old USA. In fact, it does not even come up on a Google search as a brand. That's hilarious. They look good too.

[@TheRus13]

В России тоже продают печенье по весу. Я лично видел в Ашане. В крупных торговых сетях гипермаркетах это норма а в маленьких это не выгодно так как печенье крошится и от этого большие потери в продажах.

[@TravellingwithRussell]

Я думаю ваше право, в Ашане они тоже есть. Особенно в крупных магазинах с высокой оборачиваемостью.

[@PULATOVKHUSAN]

Welcome to Uzbekistan 🇺🇿❤️

[@ytr8989]

Uzbekistan 🇺🇿 You’re a supermarket expert. Uzbekistan shoppers seem to be a lot more interactive and happier than they were in Russia.

[@lilipop6990]

[@TravellingwithRussell]

@ytr8989 I met and chatted to so many friendly locals.

[@Maria-ej4gt]

Настоящий дух Америки в Узбекистане. Теперь покажите Узбекский супермаркет.

[@TravellingwithRussell]

Очень скоро у меня будет экскурсия по знаменитому продовольственному базару. Если говорить об американцах в Узбекистане, то у них там есть завод по производству автомобилей «Шевроле», и буквально около 80% машин на дорогах - «Шевроле».

[@jumpweed]

Russell PLOV is a must for you to try at the BAZAR!

[@TravellingwithRussell]

I went to the National Plov Centre and tried it there. It was amazing. I had the sweet one, I wasn't game for the spicy version.

[@jumpweed]

​@@TravellingwithRussellno,just BAZAR!))

[@ltsgoyanks]

Amazing how clean this store is...

[@VladislavJavadov]

According to typical customer behavior in all ex-Soviet countries located on the south , supermarkets are for rich people and foreigners. Locals buy food on the bazaars, because most of food are local, fresh and have good quality, even selling without pretty packaging. They use supermarkets only for industrial products, such as washing powders and personal care items, that's reflected on the shelves. I also noticed on Russian titles on all signs, under the Uzbek ones, even though Russian is not official language in Uzbekistan.

[@yorik4897]

Да, мне тоже показалось, что Магнум скорее для иностранцев. На полках в основном импорт, который по местным меркам дороговат. По поводу русского языка - русский как раз официальный язык в Узбекистане (язык межнационального общения), его обязаны знать чиновники и полицейские.

[@user-hg8qv7zn1q]

You must visit Dushanbe Tajikistan as well! I guarantee you won't regret!

[@krisleehyatt]

Been hoping for a St Petersburg vid from you!

[@TomTom-bh2wf]

I love these videos. It truly shows that no matter where you go in the world, there may be differences, but we are all the same. People still buy candy, catfood, cleaning supplies, vegetables etc... and how many of those shoppers in the store have the same worries we all share?

[@Rx_VV]

The supermarket seems super clean, elegant and cool ,Good job really, Nice video Russell 🙏✌👍

[@TravellingwithRussell]

It really was a nice store. I had to make a video once I saw this place in the mall.

[@Airfun101]

I think this seems stocked like the typical grocery stores where I live (interior British Columbia, city of about 100,000). A big difference is that this store has laundry powder! And Persil, which I have read is good for hard water. Hard to find any laundry detergent that is unscented, and they are always liquid. Thanks for the tour!

[@dragonrider404]

Thanks for the video Russell. We say shopping trolley 🛒

[@TravellingwithRussell]

Right, the same in Australia.

[@Irina-xj2gu]

Oh! Tashkent, were I was born and grew up!!! Now I live in Moscow 😊. Great tour , Russel! But, when visiting Asia, it is better to visit farmers'' markets.

[@erikjohnson960]

Back in the 80s a Midwest (USA) grocery chain had a bulk food section that included biscuits(cookies) and crackers sold by weight. It was a good idea but the bins weren't air tight and the baked goods were often stale.

[@Air-wt3gf]

Hi Russell! What are you doing in Uzbekistan?😂 This is my second homeland, or rather first. I was burn in Uzbekistan and know living in Moscow. It's a great you are there😊. Yes, Pepsi is a national drink there 😅. Its often advertised on TV and washed down with many meals. I often fly to Tashkent to visit my parents. And I know how to get around sanctions.😂 First of all I drink many Pepsi and Coca-Cola😅. Tashkent is very nice in summer, spring and autumn. Be sure to try real Uzbek plov (pilaf). Great visit 👍.

[@bahtiyar1986.]

Amazing,how you visited Uzbekistan??? You need to try Uzbekistan's cousin !!!

Japanese Kitkat are the best 🎉

[@barrycoppock]

Nothing like a good KitKat! Were some of the shelves less full due to the time of day?

[@TravellingwithRussell]

I am not really sure. Maybe, a lot depends on the delivery schedule of the trucks.

[@alm2057]

actually this supermarket Magnum is a well known Kazakhstan chain of supermarkets, they seem to have very recently entered Uzbekistan market which might explain the small number of visitors, limited variety of goods and yet not that familiar to the locals, I see quite many KZ products on the shelves

[@TomTom-bh2wf]

Hey Russell i would love to see some videos about everday typical Russian life. Nothing dramatic or special, but kind of like the everday daily grind. For example, do Russians get up for church on Sunday mornings and go out for breakfast after church? Stuff like that...

[@timothyshort_shortvideos]

Russell, you made me laugh when you said the soy sauce looked like engine oil 😁👍

[@lockbert99]

"What's in the boxes?" - Russian border agent "Kit Kats" Looked like a lot of tea to me. I have seen a few cookies sold bulk, particularly in a defunct American supermarket that had a lot of bulk items. Walmart has some bakery sweet items that are bulk and I think they have a few cookies choices.

[@jumpweed]

Here in Pennsylvania they have replaced metal shopping carts so they are 90% plastic. Unfortunately, Walmart still holds metal ones.

[@TravellingwithRussell]

Back in Australia one of the supermarket chains has swapped over to them also. I am not sure there any cheaper or better quality though.

[@jumpweed]

​@TravellingwithRussell cheaper and easier to clean. Also, they don't get rusty. Don't understand why Walmart is behind.

[@RamilY]

Magnum is little known even for citizens! It would be much more useful to check and compare with the local retail chains like Korzinka or Makro

[@TravellingwithRussell]

I didn't have time to get to a Korzinka store. I will have a Corsu Bizaar video coming up soon though.

[@ytr8989]

Never heard of the brand Florida Cookies 🍪

[@TravellingwithRussell]

Me too, until I saw them.

[@galinavorobieva1443]

you may want to check Yandex Market or Ozon - lot's of Kitkats

[@TravellingwithRussell]

I can get them from Food City in Moscow as well. But it's a bit of journey out there for a bar of chocolate. My wife is the online shopping expert, i will have to get her to take a look for me.

[@jumpweed]

😂

[@Alexey-Komarov]

It seems to me it would be interesting to compare printed prices on the shelves with the same prices on the receipt received from the cashier after payment. Let's buy 3-5 items in a Russian supermarket and compare final prices and total amount. I mean that in Russian stores we can see final amounts to pay whout value added tax or other additional taxes which a cashier must add in many other countries. It makes possible to compare prices correct between countrys.

[@Maria-ej4gt]

are you wearing Tuckers jacket!

[@TravellingwithRussell]

I bought this back in November, when I went home to Australia. It's the first time i wore it there in Tashkent, due to the slightly warmer weather.

[@witteblich6062]

As for KitKat, I think it was never too popular in Russia. It has always been considered cheap, worse-than-your-average-candy-bar confectionary. Partly because it has wafers which make it light. Oh, that reminds me. "Mars" once had an ad for its Milky Way bars. They put the bars into milk and said that the bars were so light they could float in milk! But in Russia, everyone knows what floats well: it's shit. There's an old saying, "shit doesn't drown". So Milky Way was not too popular either...
