    Yes, we all know that Portugal is in Europe. Thing is, they speak Portuguese in Brazil and share a lot of their culture and cuisine. It's like how you wouldn't be surprised to find Spanish stuff at a Mexican supermarket.

    • @Rabidanti
      @Rabidanti 6 лет назад +7

      lednerg Following your logic, is the USA in Europe coz they share culture and cuisine with European countries?
      It's totally unacceptable that she says that Portugal is a South American country

    • @lednerg
      @lednerg 6 лет назад +6

      But she doesn't say that Portugal is in South America. Look, the supermarket serves a ton of Brazilian families. If you went to a supermarket in Brazil, they'd have these same things from Portugal. So they're just trying to keep things familiar for them. That's all there is to it.

    • @Rabidanti
      @Rabidanti 6 лет назад +6

      lednerg Brazilian people go to this supermarket maybe coz it's the closest thing to their culture they have there.
      But she says 'Shopping at a South American Supermarket'..
      And the supermarket is portuguese. All those sweets that she presented are 100% portuguese (I'm Portuguese so I know).
      The meat was mostly typically portuguese too. (not brazilian)
      The codfish is typically portuguese too (this isn't even part of brazilian culture either).
      Stop acting like South America and Portugal have the same culture lol

      "Seabra Foods feature products from Portugal, Brazil, Ecuador, Peru, Mexico, Spain and more." - from their website
      It just so happens that the store she's in is in one of the largest Brazilian neighborhoods in the country. The Brazilians I knew when I lived in that area all shopped there rather than the American shops.

    Brazilian here! Grew up pretty much my entire life in New Jersey and shopping at Seabras all the time. First with my mom and then on my own as an adult. Sadly I always took it for granted that I could find all of these amazing things at my fingertips. Now I live in North Carolina and have to have my sister send me a care package every couple of months!!!! There's seriously nothing better than slices of brined Minas cheese paired with sliced of guava paste, a hot Portuguese roll slathered in butter, and a fresh "Galão" with is a double shot of espresso with very hot steamed milk and sugar served in an Irish coffee glass. Perfect Sunday morning breakfast!!!

    Seabra Foods sells mainly products from Portugal. Even though products from Spain, Central and South America are also available at this market, the main culture represented is definitely Portuguese. I wouldn't call Seabra Foods a South American Market. It's a Portuguese market. And if you look at a map, you can see that Portugal in not located in South America.

    For future videos please find a better way to try the food. Do it in such a way that it’s distinct from just casually walking down the aisle and grabbing and tasting. While it’s obvious that you have permission from he owners to do that, it’s not good behavior to exhibit. Many Americans do that without permission and it’s not good. A better way to try this is to say set up a table that your return to and set down your goods and try while speaking to the owners or an employee about the product.
