so who’s going to tell her that those are styrofoam and not cardboard
omg i was like but those are styrofoam how the hell does one confused them
The containers were squeeking too. No cardboard boxes do that.
Clearly you don't need a very broad knowledge of much to work there 😂
IKR!!!
@TC Fenstermaker it's not like she couldn't correct it either physically or through editting
imagine a video where someone showed you how to shop at albertsons or safeway and starting opening up boxes of cereal and eating them in the aisles or drinking bbq sauce and spooning relish while listening to it.... seems a bit weird
Do it.
An Asian person needs to get on this.
I think you are trying to make a point about the problem of exoticizing the everyday experiences of others, but would nonetheless like to see someone make a video about shopping at an Albertsons or Walmart.
She obviously got permission from the store to promote them 🤣
@@Groovingforwardatx They are huge. They do not need promotion. That's like saying Walmart needs more publicity. Either way, why call it a how to? Please, people, do not do this. It's just a supermarket like anything else. And honestly it's only like the fourth best in Las Vegas. Used to be third until they got rid of the vegan bahn mi shop... Granted it's cause they got so popular they outgrew it but still... Takes it down a notch.
When she went into the ramen isle, I was just waiting for her to tear open one of the packages and just eat the raw noodles...
violinplayer101 omg same
There actually are (dried) ramen noodles meant for snacking, so why not?
i'd like to think there was someone with a shopping cart behind the camera where they put all the stuff they opened to pay for later
Otherwise it should really be called “how not to shop at...”.
Did you read my mind and paste it into a comment
I was really hoping that it was the case.
I was expecting tips on what to buy....what to look out for...special tips...something...but just another lacking video....
adriana516 the tittle reveals it all..”Lost in the Supermarket”...
how to shop at an asian market
1. walk in
2. pick your items
3. pay
done!
array s I agree. It's great marketing to let people sample, but open cans and bags? Obviously this is exaggerated for the show.
array s well in the 99 ranch stores in america if you tried to try the food you'll get kicked out lol. Even if you ask they'll say no.
@array s only on weekends and costco do that too
How does one shop at an american market?
sarah y same with a mexican one
Imagine the opposite happening: A lady a with very strong Chinese accents walks into Whole food and tells you how to pick out almond butter. LOL!
LOLOL!!!!! I get tired of this white-people-know-all-no-matter-how-stupid-they-are bit you see way too much of.
Just casually sipping on a bottle of vinegar in the middle of the store...lol
why am i watching this i'm asian
Kim Nguyen Haha im asian too!!
same lmfao
Lol same!
Asian unite
hahahaha you made me cackle xD
I know that the store is probably aware and allowed them to do what they did in this video- tasting, opening whatever- but I really hope this doesn't spread an idea that you can do whatever in an asian supermarket like this. The only section of the store where that stuff is really tolerated is in the produce section... Without a disclaimer or anything, I'm worried that this would give some people- obviously those who have had no experience in stores like this, the target audience- incentive to act like she does in the video. I have the faith that most people have the common sense to understand that, but seeing the number of comments that don't even realise that this was filmed like that with permission...
I doubt anyone will now think you can randomly taste food in asian supermarkets...
Fishbowl74 children
array s. I seen stupid people before. And there are children too! Lol
Array s. I’m sorry... but I’ll disagree with you, but people are that stupid.
Most of the people in the US have no common sense.
The way she's touching the vegetables is making me really uncomfortable for some reason
+jasmine kayal
What do you think happens at supermarkets?
Get real.
Being Asian this also makes me cringe
jasmine kayal THATS WHAT I AM SAYING YES GIRL YESSSSSSSS THROW THEM HANDS LMAO
Omg, thank you. It's not just that she's touching them, there's just something real uncomfortable about the way she's doing it. Thanks for making me feel not-so-crazy about it. XD
i didn't see it right until you point it out, now i can't unsee it
0:07 Cardboard...or styrofoam?
nathanfay1988 i was gonna comment that too😂
She might be one of those sneaky non English people that can imitate language well.
Boxes... or containers?
Boxers...or briefs?
Yeah, was about to comment on this as well. Cringed at the moment she said cardboard and then when it started squeaking when she moved it... lol
The video starts with "how to" but then shows you what not to do unless you want to get the cops called on you.
The better title would be, how to be bizzare into asian supermarket?
Or, How To Get Arrested In An Asian Market!
I agree. Her behavior in the 99 Ranch is very disrespectful of the employees. They're the ones who have to handle the opened packages and clean up yher messes. I think she'd get kicked out of Lucky and Trader Joe's for her behavior.
When she eats food off the shelves I picture her leaving the tampered packaging and discarded half eaten foods on the shelves
why, people do it all the time, they just buy that opened package later
I've never seen that... I would feel so uncomfortable doing it. I always pay first, then go back and walk in the store with it. I even feel uncomfortable walking around with a drink I got from another store earlier in the day...
she gets permission ahead of time from the store when theyre filming.
Axel Rhoade I'm sure she does. I'd just still feel really wierd about it.
its her job though so i guess she gets used to it? I think from the way she holds things you can kinda tell that she's nervous about opening them still lmao... she kinda juggles them for a minute before deciding whether or not to open them
I feel really uneasy when she sips the sauce straight from the bottle..
That's not sauce... That's vinegar...
Nirmal Kirtisinghe yeah and you use vinegar on gyoza
For hardcore foodies only.
Yeah she could've dropped a bit on her palm instead and tasted from there. Just... never touch your mouth to a bottle of cooking condiment you know? Just ew.
I would buy that bottle of vinegar she drank from then put back on the shelf.
Eating in the store without paying is making me really uncomfortable.
She does pay for everything she opens, and she's filming with the store's permission. The owner might even be watching behind the camera, getting good publicity for his or her store.
She pays for everything she consumes and have the store's owner permission to do this for the video but...... the idea of eating whatever I want around the store for free doesn't make me uncomfortable at all, it actually makes me jealous cause that's my biggest dream lol
It's like heaven!!!
Jack, in a way you're unintentionally making the opposite point. There are cultural expectations that are different in Chinese vs western supermarkets, and Chinese markets absolutely *do not* want you to eat food before paying. It's western supermarkets that tolerate the practice. It's dangerous to apply your expectations for one culture onto another.
@@kim15982 this is about cultural misunderstanding of non-Chinese American vs Chinese American expectations. I'm not sure why you feel that your living in a different country will give you insight into this particular cultural idiosyncrasy.
@@kim15982 我老婆是台灣人。我們去過中國、香港、台灣、泰國、柬埔寨、越南、韓國和日本。我們住在洛杉磯帶了18年了: 有很多的中國人、越南人、泰國人。夠了嗎?
Note: Please don't start drinking out of bottles and opening packages and eating right there in the aisle. Chinese people generally aren't cool with that. In Western markets employees will give you the benefit of the doubt; in a Chinese market they'll more likely think you're stealing and/ or crazy lol.
Aresmic I'm sure they called ahead and spoke to the store to get permission before filming.
She's not doing it without permission!! And like, it's pretty obvious that she's not stealing
If a woman with a crew filming her doing this type of stuff in front of everyone without paying or having permission DEFINITELY would be noticed and stopped by someone of the supermarket's employees
I know, I know, I'm just saying for the sake of people who aren't going in there to film a show :)
Here in canada you can actually be brought to the manager. Imo it's stealing anyways. You didn't pay for it yet, don't open it yet. It is not yet yours.
I mean, isn't that completely normal that you can't open or eat anything while you didn't pay for it yet on the counter? Or do some countries not really punish it?
(Besides she obviously just promotes the shop and was allowed taste tests for that.)
Watching her eat the food in the aisles was REALLY bizarre to see lol
Why not just grab the one in the front? 2:42
BlakeTheCookie and then she just sets it on top of the rest...
It was such a satisfactory sound though...
It sounded like she was ruining the packaging.
I didnt even have to click the time to know exactly what you are talking about! That got to me too lol
YES! I had the same thought! Annoyed the crap outta me.
am i the only one who got irritated watching her eating the products without paying them first? like, i know they'll pay the food.. but it's just...didn't felt right for me. lol
i do that..... with like one thing sometimes. its not that big of a deal.
it's fine if it's just a bottled drinks are some bags of snacks since you can wrap it back again but when she opened a can and sip on a vinegar I cringed..
When a white woman tells you how to shop at an asian market but all she’s doing is just eating her lunch 🧐

yeah wtf
“You know that there’s a lot of food when the towers wobbling” YOU KNOW YOU HAVE ALOT OF FOOD WHEN YOU HAVE A TOWER OF FOOD
She’s a retail employees worst dream.
you mean nightmare.
you know you have vinegar drinking problem when you chug it straight from the bottle lol
3:03 "so we're gonna head over to noodletown now"
the exact words of my friends when they come to my house
Very informative. I had no idea fish have balls
Andrew Wilson Theyre just balls made from the flesh of the fish, same way meat balls are made from ground meat.
😂
Depending on what kind of asian or oriental market you go to... Make sure to get the fish with clear eyes. Red eye fish are less fresh. If the skin quality of a certain fish looks bad... Don't get it. Frozen solid fish? Ask to get it cleaned. Fins and scales... Everything. Only get the fish fried in the morning. The butchers might not change the oil... Ever... So the quality of the oil may be change during the day because oil is expensive boi. Don't be a noob and get fish around 7:00-9:00 PM. They be cleaning.
Edit: Damn... I wish I had the money for that much food.
kikopower Exactly. I personally never had any “seafood” besides fish sticks. But when I go grocery shopping I pick up fish for my father. I’ve learned to always go in the mornings either an hour or 2 after the store opened, and always ask for the fish to be cleaned then fried for sanitary purposes.
Imagine this woman during the Covid-19 pandemic...
They have permission from the shop owners to do the things they do.
RELAX !
Jin X I WAS NOT YELLING THIS IS JUST MY VOIICCEE
This is a paid segment, it's a naturalized advertisement for 99 ranch.
Jin X, it still annoys me...
Then put some warning in the videos. Come'on. There are some stupid people and young kids who won't understand a thing she is doing. Lol
Yes, they have permission to film-- that's not the point. The point is that the practice of sampling before paying is not acceptable in Chinese markets, and someone who has only been to western markets where this is tolerated might see this video and think the host's behavior is just an extension of this accepted practice in western markets. There's a difference of cultural expectations here that the video does not explain, and that someone could get into trouble for without understanding this.
Can we please have someone actually experienced for these types of videos 😩
Honestly I don’t know what I even mean by that lmao
Well, maybe at least a chef that describes food with words other than "delicious and "super delicious".
MusicalFool 909 point though. I maybe someone with experience with these stores.
@@dolphingoboop As an Asian, she is quite accurate to what I know. Her pronunciations are pretty alright, but maybe for a stranger it can be confusing.
My mom: I just need to get bean sprout and we'll go home
Me: ok
My mom two hours later with a cart full of 200 things*
Me: I thought u said one thing!!!
My mom: I just needed a few more things DO YOU WANT TO STARVE TO DEATH!!!
I find it amazing that what some people live off on a daily basis could be something super new and cool for someone else
great intel for any new people intimidated stepping into an asian market!
the fact that she called the string beans a flogging device.... very kinky, can never look at this vegetable the same ever again.
Wait... do you mean you were using them for cooking in the 1st place? Traditionally they were always meant to be used to flog the rice before serving ;p
Mars Sonnemans wait what. I feel stupid writing this but I can’t tell if ur joking or not😂
“I trust this guy with my noodles.” Lmao
I dont really get the "how" part of this video. She's just explaining different foods. It's informative but don't really get what the point is. Pretty sure anyone can navigate an asian market. its set up just like any other market.
ben shin
The video is telling us about different things we might not know are delicious
People are bored and don’t go outside anymore, so this is like entertainment
Being an asian myself....i personally dont recomend western people go to asian supermarket and eat food right out of the shelve....but at the same time if you promise to buy the things you eat we're cool with it...🤗
They asked permission beforehand
Obviously. It's clear that this was arranged beforehand with store management.
.. duh
TheHanspeter8 duh. But would had appreciate it if she opened up all the purchased items at the table. She is giving the wrong impression to stupid people and children. Lol
I love this woman! She tears into chip bags, drinks vinegar, listens to meat floss.. All in a classic monotone yet upspeak dulcet tones. I even love her jeans!
Katharine Kim : )
I like to imagine everything she opened and ate from she just put back on the shelf.
I'm baffled by everyone's comments about opening packages in the store. Of course she isn't promoting opening items, nor is she stealing, or putting open items back on the shelf. This is a show!! Specifically a show in a series, this one is to help people who are intimidated by the overwhelming grandeur and sheer mountain of choices in Asian markets. She's tasting things in the aisle so we don't have to sit through unnecessary cuts scenes of her tasting things at another location. I'm personally very glad she showing, tasting, and describing items. Not just as a way to encourage people to step outside their routine shopping experience, but also as an example to other channels on how to shot videos in groceries and show the products and services (i.e. get permission first, don't be annoying or sketchy in stores, and don't make a lot of cut scenes or voiceovers).
I'm very excited for this series! I love exploring new stores and gaining new appreciation for other cultures food. I'm also very happy with the format, I wish it was a longer video. Thank you, Epicurious!
And thank you other RUclips channels that demonstrate and encourage people to step out of the Walmart "Ethnic" sections.
She talks in questions like a teenage girl but looks 45. It weirds me out a little
Ugh, welcome to "uptalk"......and one word that's, like, ridiculously, like overused. Can you guess which?! :)
What do you expect from insane lady that is teaching people to go in stores and eat bits of the food without paying for it.
Yes. I find her "upspeak" rather annoying.
45 is a little steep. Maybe like 34
Super S Patrick right
I love getting lost in an asian supermarket.
i love this vedio too and I am a chinese
One of the things I miss most about Socal is the huge Chinese population. You guys have the best food!
But the asia market here is so small. I can’t relate 😢😢
Same
How do you get lost in them they are small.
Soooo they paid for all that right😂
Virginia Valentin hahaha I was thinking the same thing. She was like "oh we're on this lane, let's taste it".
No, you are watching her steal.
She doesn't take it. After tasting it, she puts it back on the shelf.
I thought she was putting them in a cart or something but realized that she couldn't
Probably they paid her. This is just a commercial for 99 Ranch.
Kinky green beans for flogging. I love this girl.
What time of day was this filmed? Because whenever I’ve shopped there the aisles are crammed with people. Crammed!
Randal Rand I know. Haha! Ours (Edmonds, WA) is always crowded. It’s like combat shopping 🤣
I awkwardly walked around 99 Ranch Market by myself for the first time yesterday. I wish I would have come across this video first.
Kimberly Mendoza hahaha did you come across this vid by searching 99 ranch
"Oh, hello'' lol as she slowly pop up from the styrofoam plates
Take this from a Chinese person. Ranch 99 isn’t the most authentic Chinese market.
1) it’s actually clean
2) it’s not overcrowded
3) shopping for food isn’t a battle to the death
4) the scent of death and fish isn’t strong enough in the seafood isle. But otherwise it’s pretty accurate
Hahahaha accuracy on point
I think it's weird the way she explains things.
I personally don't like way she opens things from the aisle.
Maybe she can pick up an item and explain while the scene changes to a close up of the opened item on a plate, ready to be served, kinda of like how Tasty has a close up shot of their finished dish. And then it can cut back to her and her going on to grab another item and then the close up/serving shot comes up again.
Just an example of what they can change for their future videos, it would at least let us know how you can serve it and how it can be cooked/prepared.
I just think it's bizarre the way she manhandles the produce, and then opens up bags in the aisles to munch on.
It comes across very rude.
u say 'u think' alot so nobody really cares its yo opinion
Wow, I grew up in a Chinatown in Brooklyn. This is my first time seeing a Chinese supermarket that isn't crowded, dirty and super loud.
That’s probably just because it’s New York haha
I honestly can't stand her opening up the packages of food and eating them its tacky. I know it's all paid for but just eat the stuff outside
She has to open stuff and eat it there for the camera.
That would make an awesome video. Watch her go shopping and then watch her awkwardly eat stuff in front of a grocery store.
"Act like this woman, and you'll immediately get slapped by all the asian grandmothers in the store"
I love how this is an 'Asian' supermarket but here at home it's just a supermarket. I would really love to see a supermarker deeply dedicated to 'Western' delicacies cause at our supermarkets there is only a section of it. I hope they also have dried fish and dried anchovies with chili in this market they visited. It is really tasty and any one who loves spicy food will definitely love it.
when I was young, my mom and I was buying food in an asian market, I got distracted by something and when I tried to find my mom, she wasn't there. it was scary as hell!
I don't like getting lost in an asian market :(
I’m Asian, I’m weird, my Asian friends are weird, my Asian parents are weird, Asians are weird in general, but we don’t go around in a Asian market opening things and just drinking right out of the sauce bottle.
The Lucky Asian it's all payed for, numb nuts
How can everyone criticize her for opening food packets when the intent of doing so in a video like this is exceedingly obvious? People who need assistance in an Asian food market are probably also the same kind of people who might need a little encouragement to try new things, and they might be afraid of some of the unfamiliar items in the store. She opened the pickled veg at the beginning to show that it's just another food item that you can buy and use like any other. Opening the interesting sounding snack at around 10:45 to demonstrate that unknown =/= bad. Beyond "having permission" the producers of the show obviously thought about their audience and made the choice with the shop owner about the best way to proceed, and I bet they both agreed that this was an excellent way to showcase how fresh and available all the items were. The intent of the video is to make the market less "exotic", "foreign", and scary, and present it as something that can be acessible for everyone. That's good for the market and the populations that rely on it, and it's good for the people who are trying new things.
Kylie Perry I can see the good intentions they have with everything she does and the friendly way she talks, but if the "new" things that people take from this video is how you can taste everything right in the aisle of an asian supermarket and did not show her taking it aside to pay for it later, it might become problematic.
At least show her putting aside the things she sampled, we usually have trolleys for that. Even if by the permission she wasn't required to buy the stuff she sampled, then pretend that she will buy it later, just for this video, or say straight up that she was allowed to do these things by the owner. Is this or is it not a How To video?
Kylie Perry. I can see the good intentions. But the way how the video is created might give children and stupid people the wrong impression. The title also ain't helping. I would had appreciate if she purchased her items and ate it at the table. There also should had been a warning for stupid people to understand WTF she is doing. Lol
Love this comment
when she keeps on saying balls. "Fish balls" i'm like this girl...
She walks...so, so strangely.
@1:37 I'm guessing she's bruised from 50 Shades of Epicurious.
@@Fishgutsoup h
I'm Zekk I feel like that too, she seems like she has to go to the bathroom.
Just found your channel. I LOVE the way you walk. At 6:32 I saw Spam on the left. Spam in an Asian market?!
People still eat spam.
Yes spam in China, they eat it all the time. Chinese people call it lunch meat. They eat it for breakfast and also in hot pot.
"Snacking in the aisles isn't my usual mo" she does this in every video I've seen
Guys stop with all the whining and complaining. Adina is lovely and effervescent.
Obnoxious. From her tone to all the opening and eating in the aisles it just comes off as mockery. It’s like she’s slightly amused at the existence of a store like this, but she’ll humor us by explaining it anyway. Even if they paid for everything after and her tone and delivery is just a by product of the trendy “up speak” style of talking, this whole video was disappointing. Missed an opportunity for a really good, respectful and informative video. Too bad.
IKR. I would appreciate if she put warnings in her videos. Children and stupid people would take it the wrong way making them curious if it's alright to try open goods without paying in the store.
ISS how can you think someone would think that?
Also, what makes her an “expert” at this?! What are her qualifications?
The idea of this video was good but it’s not useful. What’s useful is if she walked around saying what item she uses for what recipes. Without that, this is pointless.
@@cornonthecob ... as an Asian, who lives in Asia, and can speak and read Chinese, I can tell you she knows her stuff.
This isn’t really a video about how to shop at an Asian restaurant, rather what does this one store offer. This is the internet...not everyone has that store around the corner. Also if you’re going to try and promote Asian food, make sure to confirm how to pronounce everything.
array s there's nothing wrong with that sentence
array s I don't see anything wrong with the sentence. I was wondering about your comment "youre a dumb"?
6:37 that kawaii old guy is the real star of the show
Ive been waiting for this! I like seeing her in all the supermarkets doing her thing, she is extremely articulate, funny and knowledgeable.
Thanks for whitesplaining to me how to shop at an Asian market...
Oh shut up. It's good information.
Omg this is how I felt!
No way, whitesplaining is now a word 💀💀 no limits with you SJWs
I understand how it can be conceived as "whitesplaining", but she is the host of this series, and they have not just Asian markets in this series as well...
And I think it's nice that she's introducing things from my culture to a broad audience. Also, I have a lot of white/non-Asian friends that get intimidated or grossed out when I show them Asian food or products, and I think that this helps show them that Asian food can suite to a western palate as well.
I mean it's kind of obvious that this video is intended as an introduction for white people or people who are not Chinese/asian to the idea of an asian supermarket. It's a given that none of this will be new info to a Chinese/asian person who is already familiar. So your comment is kind of stupid.
Wish we had a supermarket like this near my home.
When I am in a Chinese supermarket I know what I am looking for. Some Chinese supermarkets you actually can get lost but if you know the market you can actually figure it out. The key is to know the prices. Some Asian markets are OK and some are very bad because of the selection. In this video she explains mushrooms, so what I do is look for dried mushrooms which have a very long life. Usually I will buy things off the street, which is a lot cheaper because they don't have to pay the over head.Some things are cheap and some things are very expensive, so I stay away.
What I really love from this video is about bringing back the culture of walk-in market and appreciating farm produces to counter the growing trend of online shopping. Like seriously, get out from your house, people. Treat yourself with the authentic experience of market, feeling, smelling, and tasting the fresh produces. The bright colors of vegetables, the sharp aroma of cheese, the fresh aroma of fish and meat, the zingy aroma of spice racks.
Fyi 99 Ranch just opened in Austin, Tx :)
1) You dont come into and asian market and eat the food
2) How is this a how to video
3) Im getting info from a western lady
4) Styrofoam and cardboard are 2 different things
5) Who would come prepared with chopsticks for the asian market
so....
PLEASE STOPPPPPP
Lol when she talks about the gigantic bags of rice is so true. She seems impressed by the quantity of one single bag when we have 5 of them in my household just because we know it's going down and fast and we're too lazy to go back to buy some more haha
imagine if she just goes to fresh fish section and then just starts eating a whole raw fish
99 Ranch is one of the greatest grocery stores of all time. Not sure what is better, Publix or 99 Ranch.
99 ranch is overpriced. 99 ranch is the gringo asian grocery store. Real asians shop at other markets.
T&T
@mo. not where I'm from. 99 Ranch is cheaper than grocery stores in Chinatown.
In Los Angeles it's overpriced.
Mo Sabri really? I go there a lot. I think it’s way cheaper than Korean or Japanese grocery.
Everything about this is making me uncomfortable. EVERYTHING
Dear Epicurious, perhaps send someone who actually understands the market they're in to do these videos. Great example is Maangchi, fantastic Korean cook on RUclips who did a Korean market intro for those of us actually trying to learn something.
Honestly Asian supermarkets are heaven
You guys are so freaking vile. She’s such a sweet heart who loves food. She doesn’t proclaim to be an expert, she’s just the average person who really enjoys lots of foods from different cultures. Obviously she got permission from the owners to film and try the food. Just chill out and enjoy her weird and fun personality. :)
Ethan Wilkins we need people with more sense like you (Y)
No
Ethan Wilkins booooooooo
epicurious also pays for everything and the stuff doesn't go to waste
Says the white person that doesn’t understand what it feels like to have their culture disrespected.
“Cardboard boxes”
Styrofoam. Those are Styrofoam.
I am totally going to start carrying chopsticks in my jeans front pocket.
Nice tour. It's getting better but I'm still intimidated when shopping at asian markets like this. Just need to keep educating myself. Thanks for posting this vid.
Love this gal! However she moves around like she has to go potty!

It gives me a weird feeling knowing that this exact store used to be a Pathmark supermarket where I went to as a kid.
+1 for the chopsticks in the pocket. Love the enthusiasm :)
Bruh she picked up the bad of rice and I'm like, "That's the small bag! The true Asians be buying rice at Costco 50 pounds for$25." Every penny counts!
it kinda made me uncomfortable when she sips literal vinegar out of a bottle
This is a cashiers worst nightmare
Asian here. Blech king mushrooms, it's like they took the best part (cap) and said NONE FOR YOU, and took the worst part (stem) and said ALL YOU!
Would have thought this would have been a good opportunity to have a presenter from Asian descent to present a video about shopping in Asian stores.
I hope she had no permission and did not pay for anything
As soon as the video ended, she and her mom jeans jumped right back into the 1990's to evade angry grocery store managers
David Dalmatian lmao
Stupid people and children will look at the video that way. Lol
She should at least purchased all the items. Then open them at the table. And at least put a warning in the videos.
ISS I was thinking the same thing. Touching items in a grocery store is gross enough. She bought food in "cardboard" containers and sat at a table. Why not with the foods she's about to taste?
Good Lord I need one of these stores where I live!!!!
In Philly I had a little Chinese market like 6 mins away. Lemongrass at grocery store $6 for a 3 inch slice. Market 4 stalks for $3. As an example
Shopping at an Asian supermarket conveys what we in the west have been missing.
Bro If i saw her touching these vegetables and fruits in the store and not buying em, yo girl gonna throw some hands. Girl, point at them. No touchy touchy.
ayyitskristen a but you have to touch vegetables and fruits when you buy them anyway?? How else are you gonna check them???
ayyitskristen a
That's why you wash your vegetables. People touch them. You didn't know that?
Uh, touching and smelling the vegetables you buy is the most normal thing next to breathing air.
Hey Adina, I think you're doing a great job. I always look forward to your episodes. Thanks for all you do!
Oh yay! Pig stomach with the ribs still attached! 😂
This is a new feature on Amazon Go. Just walk into a store a start eating off the shelf.
“After that whirlwind tour of the store, I’m running on fumes”
Ummmmm after chowing down in every other aisle???
nahhh here's the _real_ way to shop in an asian market, straight from yr friendly neighborhood filipina. when you're in the market you think:
- "is that a dinner food?"
- "is that a party food?" (and by extension, the next morning's leftover-breakfast-food)
- "that looks familiar. i'm obligated by nostalgia to eat it again" (even if you've never seen it before in your life)
and then you stock up on enough food for the next 5 months
my family eats deep fried fish, usually pomfret, topped with pork floss, and then soy sauce as a dipping sauce. cause it’s fried so crisp, we eat the tips of the fins and tail too
8:00 Regarding that pork, it's not a powder. I think a better description would be a fluffy, cottony, and shredded pork. If it was a powder, she wouldn't use a pair of chopsticks to taste it from that container.
why don t we have something like this here in germany argh
JPAnor in meiner Stadt gibt's so'n Laden
so groß und mit so einer vielfalt an sachen? Wenn ja, geil
in Amerika ist halt alles supersized. In meiner Heimatstadt gibt es bestimmt 10 verschiedene Asialäden, einer davon ziemlich groß(1/4 so groß wie 99Ranch hier) und alle sehen aus wie ein heruntergekommener Aldi aus den 2000ern.
Würd mir sowas auch wünschen, aber dafür sind die Läden hier meist Inhabergeführt und nicht Teil einer Riesenkette an Supermärkten. Was ja auch eine super Sache ist ;)
JPAnor because german hates asian?
Why is the need to say ugly thing like that?
