They don't really have vegetables in Polish cuisine haha they do. Most of the traditional, home cooked dinners that you get at an average Polish household consist of some protein (mostly meat), potatoes and a salad (surówka or sałatka). Moreover, Poles love soups and a lot of vegetables go into those, too. So yeah, I kind of disagree :D

Żabka is emergency shop - many people in Poland this shop a shop of the last need. You go there just because you forgot something and any other shop is closed. In Biedronka you have put loose stuff on scale, but in lidl scales are build into the cash registers, even those self-service. Cereals in Europe generally are less sweety than in USA cause of legal regulations that banned certain ingredients.

Each self-service cash register in all of Biedronkas I've been to has scale built in, basically u either scan code or weight on a scale and pick what u've weighted. The part that u put already weighted or scan products also has a controlling scale which causes notorious problems with buns and breads that in reality are usually heavier than their system expects. Please don't spread misinformation about Biedronkas here ;).

Just a heads up - the bread in all these supermarkets is made from frozen dough and uses preservatives. It's not good. If you want to try some real, fresh, tasty Polish bread, go to a bakery (Grzybki, Galeria Wypieków, etc.). The difference is substantial. There's nothing better than a fresh, warm slice of bread.

Tak tylko powiem, bo jestem ze wsi i w życiu nie kupiłbym warzyw czy owoców od "lokalnych, świeżych dostawców" (chyba, że bym ich zweryfikował). W sklepie przynajmniej są jakieś regulacje i koleś może sobie narobić kłopotów sprzedając przeładowane chemią jedzenie, a prawda jest taka, że nagminne w szczególności wśród mniejszych rolników (przynajmniej skąd ja pochodzę) jest nadużywanie chemii. W mojej wsi sam znam kilku takich, którzy pryskają ogórki godzinę przed zrywaniem, 5-krotną dawką, to samo z ziemniakami i innymi warzywami. A potem jeżdzą i reklamują się, że sprzedają "od prawdziwego, lokalnego rolnika".

6:11 supermarket bread is not the best quality and does not even come close to proper polish bread from a bakery. In supermarkets, they get frozen pre-baked bread (with artificial add-ons and preservatives), which they finish off in the ovens in store, hence the scent of freshly made bread (that makes you hungry and want to buy more), but as you say, if you don't eat it the same day, it goes stale quickly. If you go to a real bakery, they bake the bread usually at night or very early in the morning from natural ingredients. This would last a week but don't keep it wrapped in plastic bag.

Foir hot/ boiler vegetable addition this is colifower, broccoli, carrot, beetroot ,yellow beans. Also for sandwiches made at home there is almost always some vegetable used ( tomato, polish pickle )

As @OmniSzron and others said earlier - bread in supermarkets isn't that good. It's fine, but if you really want THE bread go to the bakery or find a free stand with local products and ask for "chleb na zakwasie". Those are usually priced by weight not by piece, and with the first bite you will understand why. Those are really really dense and satiating units, with much longer shelf life. Try those and you will consider reheated frozen dough an edible sponge. One two "kanapka" with butter and sliced fresh tomato for breakfast and you're ready for some action. Same story with meat - you're into cooking (like me) so definitely go to the butcher for a better quality. I can only speak for me and my friends but there's a pattern to do most of groceries in supermarkets because of pricing but meat, veggies people tend to prefer those local shops/stands. Go to the bazar and spend some money there, you won't regret it.

If you wanna buy really really fresh meat or fish come to Makro or Sellgros. These are market where restaurants and shops make their shopping and usually you need a special retail client card but you can get this also for a private use just ask at the customer service desk before starting shoppig. Anyway they have the widest selection of products (these makrets can be very huge) of all different cusines. You maight be able to find all "fancy" products like duck, rabbit, boar meat. When I want to make sushi I use fresh salmon or tuna only from them cause they really always have the most fresh products. Problam may be that this markets are usually on the far suburbs of the city. You wont find them in the center.

If you are still in Krakow try to find Bacówka! One is in Galeria Krakowska, ham is there so awesome, like this supermarket ham you got will get goes after eating ham from Bacówka😂 the price per kg will be quite the same, off course you can get more pricier ham there but oh the taste! Try the beef ham it’s delicious! Other much better option than the packed ham from biedronka is the ham from the meat counter in carrefour. Another good place to shop food is Stary Kleparz, it’s behind plac Matejki, next to the academy of fine arts. You can find a lot of local made foods there like cheese and kiełbasa. We leave two streets from there and shop not as much as we should do there😅 ah and bread! Next to start Kleparz you can find the bakery Piec, try the bread on the sour base it tastes like the bread our grandmothers made! Biedronka is fine but that will make you just crave bread! Try it with butter and a little bit of salt, this is how our mothers and grandmothers ate it, it’s perfect. Have fun!😊

I buy almost all needed products (especially vegetables and fruits) on the bazaar. The quality is much better than in supermarkets. I buy bread in little bakeries and meat in local, trusty (and tested) places. So basically, I try not to buy food in the supermarkets. Maybe it's cheaper there but the quality is lower. Unfortunately, the supermatkets are taking over the market and the local businesses are being closed all the time. I try to support the latter ones but it seems to be futile...

This is not a farmer's market. 9 out of 10 times, It is a regular shop that is sourcing all veggies and fruits from a local wholeseller market. It is not bad but it is a common miscoception that you support the farmers if you buy from a fruit/veggie kiosk instead of a shop. For most of the time, you aren't. It is possible, though, to see people selling fresh vegetable stright from a truck or a simple stand stall, but that usually happens in smaller cities, maybe outskirts of bigger ones

one tip, don't buy whole chicken in biedronka, it often is poorly sealed due to its shape and spoils even before reaching your house or even cart, biedronka leaves it out like it's no problem. I'm talking from my own experience.

I remember tge 80's Once we got meat on the market. No cooling. Not packet. Flies laying eggs on the meat. Also you got the chicken with all the feathers. Yes I know how to pull chicken feather out and that you can burn the rest of the feathers with fire. I have only been in Poland for vacation during my childhood, so those stores feel very wierd for me.

Buy unprocessed products in local shops, they are of much better quality (usually). In Poland we also have local markets or market halls, where you will find all local products in one place. Something you won't find in the supermarket is, among others, home-made sauerkraut or low-salt cucumbers.

Hey hey, thank you for your video, friend :) It's the first one of yours I saw and I'm gonna watch more, because I like how accurate you are. From my perspective, as a born Polish, I can easily live on the same weekly budget as you, even spending a little less, and for two people, not just one. The thing is to cook polish food, using fresh products that are available here - potatoes, flour, cabbage and many, many more. They are not expensive. Anyway, wish you all the best, take care!

If you like tea, try specialty shops like Five o'clock (there's one in Galeria Krakowska and one in the M1 mall, maybe there are some other locations, too). You'll get a great selection of leafed teas from different regions, much better stuff than in supermarkets.

With the bread is the opposite what you think. Polish bread is very good as are breads in most of Europe. It is the USA that's famous for **not** knowing how to make a plain bread (and cheese for that matter). You make great meat stuff (honey ribs I had in Kirkland, WA were the beast meat I've eaten in my life) but have no clue about bread and cheese.

I didn't realize they're ok with you putting multiple different veggies/fruit in the same plastic bag, if you put all the price stickers on it. But it's irrelevant, since the better way to save plastic is to bring your own reusable bags (usually mesh bags, so they don't weigh too much).

If you buy bread in some local bakery, it will be much better than supermarket one and usually will be good to eat for whole week. Supermarket bread is much more processed, and usually deep frozen before they sell it. Local bakery is a bit more expensive, but less processed, especially sourdough. And regarding to Auchan and weighting products. It is much easier than in other shops, as price tags have little number in bottom right corner, it is the same number of the article that you can also find on scale, so you do not need to search through pictures, you ust find correct number. In Kaufland they put products in alphabetical order, but in polish of course.

This bread that you buy from discount markets is processed before (prebaked and frozen and baked again in the shop), that's why it is cheap and it is not so good for you, believe me. When it's fresh, it's crunchy and tasty, but one day later it's dry and uneatable. Real polish bread needs the sourdough to make it and would cost about 10-15 zlotys per loaf, but it can last for about a week and still be quite good. It will be still quite humid. All this ready to eat food in these markets should be considered as a junkfood. If you want to stay healthy just avoid. Of course it can be tasty, but you should consider it as an last on option to choose, just in case emergency, last available food etc. If you want a good quality bread, just go to the local bakery, there is still plenty of them, and they offer a big variety.

Nie mam takich problemów z pieczywem z Kauflanda czy Lidla. Parę dni temu kupiłam pieknie wyglądające, staropolskie bułki w pewnej niezbyt taniej piekarni i na drugi dzień były jak guma, totalnie niejadalne. Wszyscy strasznie demonizują pieczywo z odpieku, ale ono wcale nie jest aż takie złe. Na pewno lepsze niż pieczywo przemysłowe sprzedawane w mniejszych, lokalnych sklepach, w szczególności te krojone chleby w plastikowych opakowaniach.
