    As I have watched past videos, I have often thought your grocery bill should be about $400-500 (USA) each week. So, it was a pleasant surprise to see it cost less. It’s also a blessing that you don’t have picky eaters. FYI: My favorite part of your videos is the way you keep your children’s privacy-smart mom!

    I’m a Christian in the Southern US who grew up farming. We’ve always cooked at home. I was pleasantly surprised more at the fact that the Canadian prices were comparable to prices in the US. If you do the math your grocery costs equal around $10/meal (US $). And your home-cooked meals are so much healthier than processed meals plus you can control the ingredients. This was a fascinating video! ❤

    In Germany, celery roots are commonly used for soups and often sold together with carrots and leek as a "soup kit". I was really excited to see Kohlrabi in your grocery store 😂 Did you know you can eat it raw as a snack? If not, I suggest you try it, maybe with some hummus or other dip. It's crunchy and just really different and I quite like the taste! ❤

      Celery root, (we know it as Celeriac here in the UK) is very versatile. I see recipes for soups, added to roasted vegetables, and when I can get it, I also loved adding it with potatoes for mashing, or as part of Corned Beef Hash.
      I find that if I add things like Celeriac, Sweet Potato, Carrots etc in with mashed potatoes, it's an easy way to get more vegetables in a meal.

    This was a really interesting video. I always figured kosher food was more expensive just because of the extra steps it needed to make sure it was, I guess, processed properly. It's nice to know for families who aren't as well off that it isn't breaking the break for them to be able to continue to eat kosher and practice their faith.

    At 14: I assume your costs for Kosher meals would be about average to what it costs for feeding a family of five. Definite advantage is less processed food. I would think the costs at a Kosher grocery might be slightly higher, because it is a smaller business. But not having to search for acceptable foods would most likely be worth it. Thank you for sharing your life with us. I pray for peace and love to strengthen your family.

    I think it comes down to meal planning more than anything. You do a lot more planning to keep kosher, and in the end that probably SAVES money - we eat takeout far too much or run out to buy ingredients that we forgot. Buying it all at once and not impulse buying (you're right - GREAT LIFE SKILL!) saves money in the end.

I am with you when it comes to “buggy broccoli” - I’ve given up growing it because it’s a bug magnet. I do grow several leaf vegetables (lettuces, spinach, chard) and I end up always soaking the leaves for ten minutes in a sink of cold water because the bugs feed and dwell on such are nearly invisible- I do such with purchased leafy greens during the winter for the same reason.

    So much to be thankful for! I still struggle with being able to taste much (it's improving steadily), one thing I LOVE is poached salmon!
    I am Jewish and keep KOSHER, but with the cost of health care in the states, I must choose often between my many RX'S and food...so no salmon for now!
    I often explain to people that keeping a kosher diet is SOOOO much healthier, many times they thought it was only a religious thing! When they learn the facts it opens up avenues of beautiful conversation and even friendship!
    Of course, my few chats with others do not hold a candle to all you do! You inspire thousands and I am blessed to have found your channel!❤❤❤
    YOU also are loved and are perfect exactly as you are! Thank you for sharing your life, your beautiful kiddos and wisdom, you truly are living your life as HASHEM commands of us: "BE A LIGHT TO THE NATIONS!"

    When you mentioned the total, I was genuinely amazed on how affordable it is! I love that. I would love to see how you meal plan, and organize things for your recipes and all that fun stuff for your family! I enjoy seeing your girls full of connection and happiness from the skipping and holding hands, and even helping you during checking out.

    I love shopping. It is amazing how expensive food has become, kosher, non kosher, etc. and as you said, planning your meals ahead of time and shopping for these meals is a big step forward to help control the cost. Those impulse purchases add up.

    I love shopping (and I still love bug-free food too)! I must confess I had no clue as to whether kosher food would be more expensive or not, but it makes sense it is if you are buying fresh and doing the preparation yourself rather than lots of pre-processed foods. I must confess I was suspecting it might take longer based on my own experience, but perhaps this is something that gets faster and easier over time. Unrelated to this video, based on one of your other recent uploads, I've recently purchased a two-handled cup which I keep by my kitchen sink and have been ritualistically washing my hands and saying the blessing both first thing in the morning and at other appropriate times (I'm being polite for RUclips, but I am sure everyone can guess what I mean). We've got some restructuring on the horizon at work, and I've been really surprised how something as simple as netilat yadaim has helped me feel more stable through this uncertainty.

      You are correct about how quickly you will learn prep of fresh produce. Cooking is easy. Steaming or roasting are very easy. I do not like processed foods anymore.

    Thanks for sharing this information! One bad habit my hubby and I got into through Covid is ordering out for food. We're spending SO much on fast food deliveries, and aren't healthy at all. Watching this reminded me how much my husband enjoys my cooking, and how much I love preparing good food that makes both of us happy, and I need to do more of that! And also, will be so much cheaper than ordering out all the time. Thanks again!

    Happy Weekend to my wonderful Frummie family! Many MANY hugs to you all!
    I pray that you are all well, you are happy, and that any trials and tribulations you face are quickly resolved.
    The last day of June and the 1st 2 days in July are very big days for my little family, involving our anniversary, our "houseversary" (when we signed on our home), and our cat's birthday. (She's 2 today! She nearly didn't survive - and wouldn't have if, at 2 WEEKS OLD, she hadn't managed to get partner's attention, crying and starving and soooo sick with a severe URI... the vet was VERY surprised and happy she pulled through... thus her name, Caden - little fighter. Lol).
    So, lots of celebrating and lots to celebrate!
    For those adding to prayer lists, I'd like to keep Ernest on it - he lost his father to the big C and exactly 31 days later, he lost his mom as well (official cause was a clot thrown to her heart, but Ernest swears its was because her heart was broken).
    He's very... lost right now and struggling. He's drowning in sorrow. While we are doing what we can to be there and help him through this pain, I know he would appreciate a bit of extra love and support from you all through the Almighty. Thank you everyone... much love to you all... you are all AMAZING. ❤

    Thank you for another informative, educational video, Sara!
    It makes sense that planning and prepping ahead of time would result in a cheaper grocery haul, but even if that's not a strong point (see: me), the fact that you buy more fresh produce than pre-processed foods works in your favor economically as well. Unless you do most of your shopping at a specialty grocery store, produce at most supermarkets is pretty cheap. Even when we were economically worse off than we are now, we always ate well thanks to a lifetime of knowing how to cook good food for cheap and having access to fresh, cheap produce at the store as well as our home garden (something not all impoverished communities in the USA are fortunate to have). I did honestly think kosher food would be more expensive, given the extra steps required of it. Maybe do a video where you compare shopping hauls from the kosher store and a regular store to see how much more expensive (or not) kosher foods really are.
    Also, even though I am not Jewish and do not keep kosher, I'm always diligent about washing my produce-especially greens. Even if the label says pre-washed, I wash it anyway. Greens by their very nature attract a lot of dirt and bugs. Whether they're homegrown or store bought, I have yet to encounter greens that weren't dirty.
    Take care and be blessed!

We live in NYC now where there is a large Jewish Syrian community. It is nice to know that regular Syrian people (not government) liked and miss us there. Thank you for telling us.

    Hello Sara! I’m new to your channel and enjoy it very much. I’ve binge watched most all of your videos. My question is probably strange but… I live in Florida and deal with natural disasters probably more than the average person but I was wondering what would you do if you were faced with an emergency that caused you to have no resources for kosher foods? Hurricanes have left our town without power, grocery stores, etc for weeks at a time. We can prepare for a bit of time but eventually have to take what’s available.

    • @frumitup
      @frumitup  10 месяцев назад +5

      it is a great question
      Before I answer your questions first and foremost, I pray that you and your family will always stay safe throughout these disasters and even further I hope that they never touch you.
      That being said we do have thank G.od a reserve of food, mostly canned food and dry food to be able to sustain our self for a while, but like anything Judaism is very aware that in case of emergencies we could break our kosher diet, but it would not just be on the whim it would be a serious event that would force us to eat Non Kosher to survive I hope it never comes to that G.od willing. I hope that answers your questions much kisses and hugs coming your way.

    I love to watch the videos where you are out and about with your daughters. You always have such joy, and I thank you for sharing it. I expected the total to be around three hundred U.S. dollars, so I was a little off. I love shopping, but I don’t always love the prices. At our Walmart, you can buy a dozen eggs for just under a dollar. That’s a nice change from four dollars a dozen. For awhile, I could only get organic, cage free eggs, which were seven dollars for two dozen. I really don’t understand the pricing at some stores!
