"Value for Money" VFM is actually the correct word. That is what Indians seek more. Cheap may mean compromise on quality and affordable is a relative thing. But every Indian always seeks a product that has more value for their money.

This is called purchasing power parity. Foreigners don't understand this concept and thinks India is poor. But India ranked 3rd after China and US in terms of GDP PPP with 16 trillion usd and GDP PPP per capita is about 10,000 USD.
Sure! But this is a misleading comment, if you add PPP to the mix, you should also add in Per Capita & then we’re #122 (US #8, UAE#14, GER#19, UK#28, RUS#43, CHINA#74) (191 total rankings)
Per Captia can be misleading - because India has a huge population. But if the PPP of just the middle class is taken into account, it would be comparable to or even better than that of many European countries.
@@AdithyaReddy15 GDP PPP is the correct method to judge a country a huge population. Cost of living is also a major factor in India. We may earn less than most of the countries, but we also spend less. That's why GDP PPP is correct because it shows how much we can afford with the same amount of money in our country compared to other.

Dont tip (leave the change) at wrong places in India. Tipping is only in restaurants where service is provided . And hotels bell boys etc. Not anywhere else usually.
@@krishnachandran2020 why shouldn't they pay tips? Our folks make below avg, so a decent tip help a lot. I want to understand why they shouldn't if someone wants to?
@@madhuparnaghosh6254 I understand where you are coming from, but here is my take. The responsibility of ensuring fair wages lies with the employers, not the customers. If restaurants charge a service fee, that should ideally go towards compensating staff. As a waged employee myself, I believe our spending shouldnot have to fill gaps left by businesses not paying their staff adequately. Tipping becomes an extra cost that may not always address the root problem of unfair wages. Also, when it comes to the quality or hygiene of food, we usually have no transparency. Without a clear standard of service or fairness in wage distribution, tipping on "belief" alone doesn't feel justified to me. It is not about wanting workers to earn less-it’s about holding employers accountable for providing fair pay and ensuring a system where customers don’t have to subsidize wages.

Basmati isn't exactly as common in Indian households as some westerners might believe. Its a premium variety of rice that is pricey because of its impeccable fragrance and is only used to cook biriyani, pulao and other flavored rice dishes on special occasions. For daily use we use other good quality but cheaper variety of rice.
You didn't see much Basmati rice, coz it's quite expensive, the lowest priced Basmati will be more than double the price of regular rice that people usually buy.
Did you check the date. Don't buy vegetables. and fruits from there. The stock is usually bad. Only good. for buying processed, packed and canned food not fresh stuff
things are cheap, yes. but quality standards are very low. try international brands : mountain dew in india tastes like candy soda. potato fries in lays are thinner. cadbury chocolates have more flour and sugar than chocolate to cut the costs. Indian food standard guidelines are at base level. In europe you need to have 'this much' percentage of chocolate in it to be sold as chocolate. In India it is floor level. This goes on with each and every product except plain water. Indian public and tourists can rejoice things are cheaper. But what you are eating are less nutritious sugar and fat rich junk. fruits are cheap because we make here with cheap labour. colder countries of europe and US has to export fruits from elsewhere.
Most Indians use Basmati rice for special occasions in Indian festival times or celebrations at home. Otherwise daily consumption rice is a cheaper brand rice. I grew up eating the cheaper rice in India that my family will buy, but when I lived in US I used to buy the basmati rice as I find it easier to cook & better quality.
Fruits and veggies are usually more fresh and at a better price in vegetable market outside. They are used to everyone bargaining with them, so mostly they tell the price about 20% higher. It's just a system that has developed 😂. Most of them are not trying to rob anyone.
The irony is that, Kerala is in one of the highest living cost areas, while I feel most of them are bitterly more expensive than some other parts of India

I grew up eating the cheaper rice in India that my family will buy, but when I lived in US I used to buy the basmati rice as I find it easier to cook & better quality. Food is cheaper in India for 3 reasons, mass amounts of people consuming them keep costs low for some products, some foods have to be cheap for the poorer population with less income ( because we still have people who don't even earn 150 ₹ a day in some parts of India); and also with many brands there is less focus on quality due to poor regulations or poor execution of regulations here as well. Brand variability is true in any country, of the foreign known brands as well as local ones based on local tastes too.

Basmati isn't exactly as common in Indian households as some westerners might believe. Its a premium variety of rice that is pricey because of its impeccable fragrance and is only used to cook biriyani, pulao and other flavored rice dishes on special occasions. For daily use we use other good quality but cheaper variety of rice.
Please visit North East India the food culture race everything is different from mainland India
Okay inshallah I will!
Sylcon hypermarket, marine drive, Kochi KL
I think u should try malkist snacks. Its really good . Its like chessy ,sweet and salty combo. I think u will love it
Okay thanks for the recommendation!
You didn't see much Basmati rice, coz it's quite expensive, the lowest priced Basmati will be more than double the price of regular rice that people usually buy.
You must try Dark fantasy cookies it's amazing
Okay inshallah I will!
Did you check the date. Don't buy vegetables. and fruits from there. The stock is usually bad. Only good. for buying processed, packed and canned food not fresh stuff
things are cheap, yes. but quality standards are very low.
try international brands : mountain dew in india tastes like candy soda. potato fries in lays are thinner. cadbury chocolates have more flour and sugar than chocolate to cut the costs. Indian food standard guidelines are at base level. In europe you need to have 'this much' percentage of chocolate in it to be sold as chocolate. In India it is floor level. This goes on with each and every product except plain water.
Indian public and tourists can rejoice things are cheaper. But what you are eating are less nutritious sugar and fat rich junk.
fruits are cheap because we make here with cheap labour. colder countries of europe and US has to export fruits from elsewhere.
Most Indians use Basmati rice for special occasions in Indian festival times or celebrations at home. Otherwise daily consumption rice is a cheaper brand rice.
I grew up eating the cheaper rice in India that my family will buy, but when I lived in US I used to buy the basmati rice as I find it easier to cook & better quality.
Hey buddy just one suggestion dont just visit citys or golden triangle like Delhi agra jaipur, Visit North east india, Sikkim, kerala
Inshallah
Fruits and veggies are usually more fresh and at a better price in vegetable market outside. They are used to everyone bargaining with them, so mostly they tell the price about 20% higher. It's just a system that has developed 😂. Most of them are not trying to rob anyone.
His reaction is like he is visiting Afghanistan 😂😂
😂
The irony is that, Kerala is in one of the highest living cost areas, while I feel most of them are bitterly more expensive than some other parts of India
Love you content bro 😊, thank you for visiting our country❤️
Thank you!

Food is cheaper in India for 3 reasons, mass amounts of people consuming them keep costs low for some products, some foods have to be cheap for the poorer population with less income ( because we still have people who don't even earn 150 ₹ a day in some parts of India); and also with many brands there is less focus on quality due to poor regulations or poor execution of regulations here as well.
Brand variability is true in any country, of the foreign known brands as well as local ones based on local tastes too.
Its not cheap for an Indian who earns Rs 30,000 a month. Most Indians earn that much. Average wage for educated people.
Right makes sense!
Messy ofcourse as a player and Ronaldo as overall Icon I would say
That’s a good take!
Try buiscuits like
1. Prale-G Gold
2. Britanina NutriChoice
3. Hide and Seek
Chips
1. Balaji
2. Lays
3. Normal potato chips or Banana Chips
IceCream
1. Amul (flavours you can try AfganDry Fruit, Spnaish Saffron, Rajbhog)
If you are in Mumbai Maharashtra try ukdiche modak and puranpoli
Okay thank you for the recommendation!
People says per capita but it should be affordability a simple test cost 10 20usd but the same test ll cost u 1000 maybe 1500usd
Right, makes sense!
Biscuit- Hide & Seek, Bourbon, Dark fantasy Choco fills,
Biscuit to try with chai- Goodday, Parle G, Moms magic, Krackjack, Monaco
Snack- Kurkure Red & yellow, Banana wafers, Balaji Crunchex,
& Lot of varieties of Chevda(its a mixture of Crunchy tangy sweet spicy mixture of snacks)
Thank you for the recommendation!
If you are busy you can buy some ready to eat Indian snacks that can be eaten just by adding water. Like poha, halwa, rawa upma etc. Brands like MTR manufacture them.
Okay thank for the info!
India seems to be so unique.
Pro tip : dont drink sting man....ive worked at a factory some of em arent even good ....like literally handsup worse
Okay thanks for the info!
Come to southern part of India Andhra Pradesh, Orissa, Karnataka, tamilnadu, Kerala, goa they are amazing with traditions, culture and heritage and tropical different states with different healthy veg&non veg cuisines, snacks, desserts, breakfast,lunch, dinner ❤
Odisha is not in south India
Are you in Kerala,kochi or ernakulam, and this super market is next to Marian drive. Is it correct. I live in that city bro
Yea exactly
India has got world's most Affordable food and health care ❤
I guess Perks of being a developing country is the prices are rather cheap. but there will always be another country in the world where you can get it cheaper. Remember there is a difference in the prices also depending which city you buy your products in.
❤All india good brand products better for u of india🎉
Agreed!
Hum, looks like a regular market, but for a buck fifty, you pretty much got a bunch of items, now that's a deal.
Exactly!
Try Hide & Seek choco cookies, haldiram neembu masala, Real Juice, bingo mad angles, limca, thums up and yipee noodles (with added veggies)
Okay thanks for the recommendation!
Nice vlog.
Suggestion: A portable mic would be handy in the streets.

Get the hide and seek biscuit next time😊
Costly western products not necessarily the best.
Many videos by foreign tourists to Kerala have been talking about the 'STING' Energy Drink, our version of RedBull.
FREE PUBLICITY FOR STING.
Lool they know what there doing🤷♂️
Sting us cococola product also available in abroad. Mazza is indian product took over cock or pepsi.
Basmati rice❌ basmani rice✅
Just here to ans the title of this video. So it's basically called "Economic" where "weaker Economy has a weaker currency" . 😊
Hope in future he didn't talking and biasedness against India like the bald and bankrupt did. be honest always !
Vegitables and fruits are costly in super markets..
U come from a developed country with high gdp per capita and purchasing power ofc its going to be cheap for u. For ur avg Indian, its still fairly expensive ( no that much but still)as our per capita income is still fairly low and median wages haven't really grown much under the new regime.
Makes sense!
Oh new regime , so you think lot of development happened during congress😂
@@ravikanthbot9266 let's not undermine the failures of the present regime while also appreciating the goods they have done.
@@bubblegum7489first of all India's GDP and avg income doubled under Bjp but under congress there weren't even basic needs like electricity , roads , water but under bjp every village got electricity , water almost 600 million people came out of below poverty line under bjp , congress didn't do shit they gave thorium worth of 60 lakh crore to china for a free price not even 10 billion and 1 ton of thorium is almost comparable to 35 lakh ton of coal for producing electricity. Such a party was congress thy were shit
