I Only Ate From Whole Foods Buffet For 24 Hours! Is it worth it?

- Have you ever wondered what the Whole Foods Hot Bar tastes like? I have, and today I found out! I usually grocery shop at Whole Foods and I have always walked by the hot bar and wondered what it was like. Usually, everything looks delicious and smells delicious but I have a general hesitation about eating at hot bars. I did taste test Erewhon's hot bar recently, but their food is prepared by staff! However, today was the day I got the courage to taste test some of the most delicious items from the Whole Foods Hot Bar.

A lot of the female food content creators are always getting comments saying they don't swallow the food. People are weird.
I make silly tiktoks where I say cheers gurl and take a sip at the end. And I continually have to refilm them because if you actually gulp the drink, it sounds so unappealing.
I've gotten this so many times its insane. Now that you mention it in this context, it makes me wonder if there's something weirdly sexual to it? ick
@@ErinRobinson that's the vibe I get. I've never seen male food content creators harassed about swallowing the food.
Like why do you want to watch someone chew & swallow? It's weird. Food content is normally to get their opinions on the food not to watch people eat. The creators just edit out the unnecessary stuff🤷
Unless they think it's a bulimic thing but still weird to me.
@@ErinRobinson Creeps will find something annoying to say. You're a ray of joy, screw them. It's a them thing. All I see is ... yay, some great food content!
I watch a male food content creator and he barely chews his food before he reviews it.
I always love when Matt makes an appearance in your videos. I love the dynamics between the two of you. ❤
He does make every video better somehow doesn't he??
You give off such a comforting, fun loving vibe! I wish the RUclips recommendations were always this good!
Yes please do more items from Whole Foods!! Specifically from their coffee shop lol
Have you tried their coffee before?!? I was shocked!
Love all your videos, definitely do a part 2❤
you areso underrated and i just.. love your personality and your personality towards food!! such a gem.
LOVE LOVE LOVe The Tortured Poets Department even if I cried a few times
Oh I love that you love it! What's your favorite song right now? I feel like it keeps changing for me
@@ErinRobinson For now my favorites are:
Fortnight, My Boy Only Breaks His Favorites Toys, Down Bad, So Long, London, Florida, Who's Afraid of Little Old Me? , Clara Bow, The Albatross, The Prophecy and So High School
you should do this at hospital cafeterias
They food be good too, I always get their fries
Hi from Houston, love your videos. I have been a fan for years since the Clever days. You are amazing!
You're an OG!! I appreciate that so much. I forget sometimes that you all have followed me from that era of my life!
Love your channel so much ❤ you have helped me so much throughout the years
Folks like you keep me doing it! I am so happy that you all enjoy it as much as I enjoy making it!
honestly love your videos glad I got this channel recommended ^_^
I haven’t been to the Whole Foods hot bar in forever! I grew up walking distance from one and it was such a life saver for the nights when we didn’t have something at home or it was too late to make dinner. I loved the mashed potatoes and all of the roasted veggies, SO good! I would love to see another video of you doing this again, that’d be fun to watch.
My hands down favorite dessert ever is from whole foods- they have a cheesecake with cake layered on top of it and truly, it isn't overtly decadent as it may sound. it's SO GOOD.
Love your content Erin!!! You are funny and totally authentic
I was surprised how good their pizza was. I just happened to get a slice while getting some groceries. So good.
Okay, I've heard mixed reviews on their pizza! What kind did you get??
Heh Erin. I love all your food food reviews!!! The strawberry cake looks delish❤❤❤
i always look forward to watching your videos! you are amazing🩷
You’re the best food content creator ever and love ur reviews and your perspective 🌺💙🌼🩷🌼🌺🌺💜💛💛💜💖🌸🌸🪻🪻🌷🌷🩶🌹🩵💖💜💙🌺🫶🏻🌷🌷🌷🌹🌻🌞🌞🌷🌹💚🧡🧡💖💜💜🩷🌼💙🌺🌷🌷🌹🌻
Thanks Lauren!!!
My favorite is when they have the Mediterranean theme with dips and grape leaves and falafel. I used to schedule my cheat meal there and get a bunch of veggies and a few bites of heavier things from the hot bar.
For breakfast, they used to be stocked with items before the 2020 thing, but switched to wrapped sandwiches after. The one I had was great on a brioche roll but it was over $7. I don't remember a biscuit option, but that looks pretty darn good.
The whole foods by me is actually the only one for a 100 mile radius, possibly more in some directions. I wonder how different things would be now there from what you have in the video here 🤔
They had the Mediterranean bar there!!! It looked so fresh!!! I feel like the cheat code is to load up on the more pricy items and sub in cheaper things that you buy in the store. I.e...avoiding sauces from the bar itself and buying a tub of dip/hummus from the actual store
@@ErinRobinson absolutely. But the way they get ya is "oh I'll get just a couple of bites" 😂😂
the bowl at the end looked so good!!!
Ur a OG fr love ur vids been watching since i was in my teens am now 24 and still love seeing you do ur thing keep grindin g
Love you Erin! You are amazing!!
I soooo miss having a Whole Foods near me! 20 years ago when I was pregnant with my son Whole Foods cornbread and the fresh sushi was my favorite! And yes sometimes I would eat them together lol
There's something about a hot bar that makes you just want to mix it all together. It's weird but it makes sense somehow!
Iv been watching you for ages and I just love how sweet and overall positive you are ❤❤❤ love from Australia ❤❤❤
Ahhhh!!! I've always wanted to come visit Australia! Thank you for saying that! I try to have fun here because there is enough wildly negative things going on in the world
Thanks for your videos. I really enjoy them. 😊
This video is my dream life 😍 I love everything from the Whole Foods hot and cold bar!
It is now my dream life as well! Everything was so good. What's your go-to there?!?!
Yes to more whole foods hot bar. Greatest joy was the ooing and awwing about mac and cheese- because yes. Always yes to mac and cheese.
I actually like the Whole Foods hot/salad bar but that’s mostly because I travel a lot for my job and it’s just easy for lunch. I didn’t even know they had a coffee bar though! And yes TTPD has been on repeat, I don’t care what the critics or anyone says, this album is amazing. Midnights wasn’t really my cup of tea but TTPD has taken a hold of my life.
It's VERY convenient and I have shopped at WF for years and never tried it, so I feel like it's going to become a great "go to" option for those weeks when I am too busy to cook!! And you HAVE to try their coffee. It's actually really good! I also think it was going viral on TT!
Your videos are so much fun to watch. Your smile is infectious.
Thank you for saying that! I do have so much fun making them!!!!
erin, ur channel is just happiness
Only because you all are so amazing and make this so fun!!!! I feel like I do have the best subscriber base on the internet! Thank you!
I love whole foods hot bar!! Sweet potatoes, mushrooms, steamed broccoli, brown rice and purple olives. Side of garbonzo ❤ The corn and arugula salad and fingerling potatoes behind the class service area are really good too!
Okay, these are pro suggestions!!!! Have you tried their pizza? So many people here are raving about it in the comments!
@@ErinRobinson i avoid cheese because it makes me have to clear my throat too much, as a performer girly for kids events, Elsa and Ariel or Barbie, girlie pop can't be clearing her throat all the time. The kiddos I nanny LOVE it! I've only heard good things. Im telling you the whole foods hot bar is a form of self care. The green dream fresh juice they make at the juice bar station always gives me more energy. Would be fun to do a Erewhon vs. Whole foods hot bar taste test. Im not allowed in Erewhon in this inflated climate, not until i manifest more abundance! Errrrr--- where's all my money whon! The gauc at whole foods and quinoa at the hb is soooooooooo good. Like a hug. Sol at Runway playa vista has AMAZING gauc! I work to buy guacamole! Guac taste test!
The hot bar (and the unlimited access I had to the coffee bar) is the only reason I miss working at whole foods 🥲 thanksgiving food in November was my favorite. The breakfast was always good.
I just ate Whole Foods last night. Funny coincidence. I loved this video Erin! Love the thumbnail.
The whole foods hot bar?!?! What did you get!?!
@@ErinRobinson I ate food from Whole Foods, but not from the hot bar. I ate fish, which I know your story about fish, potatoes and crab meat. It was delicious. The Truffle Mac and Cheese from Whole Foods’ hot bar is my absolute favorite.
Just found your channel. Awesome content! I go to WF a lot! Try the samosas with ketchup or a coriander chutney. Fabulous!
Consider a video review of the bakery section, including their cookie bar: so many great options there!
Hi Anita! Welcome friend! Do they have a coriander chutney on the bar?!?! Or is that somewhere else?!?!?
@@ErinRobinson Hi! WF has Major Grey Mango Chutney in the grocery aisle. Also found at Trader Joes. If you have an Indian Grocery Store nearby, you can find authentic coriander chutney in a bottle. The best!! And ketchup works well too...just sayin'! 😊
More Whole Foods please and thank you!
Hello…saying hello b-cuz you said it helps your videos 😉😁
❤️ thank you for your amazing videos!!! 😍
Oh that strawberry shortcake had me drooling😅
It was AMAZING! You have to try it!
Love your content Erin. I'd love to see more Hot bar videos. Sending you love from Ohio.
Their cakes are amazing but the strawberry shortcake is my favorite!! 😊
Another oneeee! Also, do you have 'too good too there' ? If so-called 24hrs of that! Ps. Love your videos, always make me smile ❤
Thank you for commenting and supporting Tory! It was so so so good!
Thank you for being the FIRST RUclipsr to do a REAL 24 Hour food review. All the ones I've ever watched are 12 hour (or less) and it gets in my craw that they call it 24 hour.
I did get enough food to do like 30 hours but felt like it might have been overkill LOL!!
I love hot bars since that gives me the chance to try new things without having to commit to a whole container of stuff in case I hate it but yeah... the germs part.
Love a hot bar 😜 favorite part was you and your husband trying things together , the food looked very good 🌸🌺🥰😘
Awwww, I always say he makes me (and my content) better just by being nearby!
That mac and cheese/roast combo is amazing! TRY THE SOUPS!
Which soup is your favorite?!?!
Do it again! You have a great personality for YT. Just subbed
The comfort food looked amazing! Sorry that the bear claw disappointed. Will have to try the food bar at WF. Have not done that yet! Loved watching this!
You gotta get there early to get it fresh, Dona!
Try the chocolate torte slice from Whole Foods too. If you like rich chocolate, it is divine!
This is a great concept. Would love to see you try other places. Maybe a special Bojangles day when the LA location opens up?😂
Yes, please do another Whole Foods video!
I Love Lemon, def trying the strawberry shortcake too
Great video!
Im probably def going to whole food to get the coffee. Been wanting to try it. ❤. So many of your videos turn into cravings. Me and husband have often went to cheesecake factory after. Love your videos. Matt guest starring is always great 🎉❤😂
Okay, have you tried any of my Cheesecake Factory Faves?? Or do you get your go-tos every time! I always wonder if people will venture into something new there or not. I am such a creature of habit, it would be hard for me to even take a new recommendation!!!
When I read the title, my first thought was "This is going to be the most expensive video on RUclips" 😂
Love your videos Erin! Would you do wingstop with the ranch!
Fun video! I enjoy the food content!
Well you're in the right place!!!! Do you have a series that is your favorite here??
All looked yummy 😋.
Great job BBFL you did so well with the Whole Foods buffet 🩷🌷💚💚🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🪻🌈🌈🩵🌷💚🩷🌺🌷🌼🌼🌞🌞🩷🌺🌺💙🩵🪻🫶🏻🫶🏻🧡🪻🩵🌈🩷🩷🌼🌼🌼💛💛🌸💖💜❤️❤️💙💙🌼🩷🌺
Yes, absolutely! Another video with other foods would be great! Take on for the team!
Thank you Summer! Are you a frequent WF shopper!??!
@@ErinRobinson omg! I never expected a reply! 🙈 Fan-girling over here! 👈 Umm.. actually I don’t shop there, but I definitely should try after seeing all these options!
They have a spring fling cake that I used to get for my birthday. So good.
Love seeing this content from you! You are so real and gorgeous! Try the sesame tofu! It’s really good cold!
Try the vegan pizza with shaved Brussels on it! Oh. My, Gawd. My daughter ate my whole piece except one bite for me! ❤
I am hearing SO MANY people say how delicious the pizza bar is!!! Do they have a lot of different flavors?
@@ErinRobinson yes! Regular to vegan and I think even gluten free crust. And I live in an area with one newer Whole Foods and it’s a large area for the food bar and pizzas 🫶🏻
Loving TTPD but it took a few listens before it really hooked me in. I had to get a feel for the songs. Thanks for your food content fellow Swiftie 😉
Hi!!!! Same, I didn't like it the first couple of times but I bought BOTH versions (before I knew there was going to be a second one) so I have forced myself to listen to it more than once and I think it has taken four listens to finally feel like I like it!
I used to love whole foods cake! The chocolate and vanilla are surprisingly yummy!
Ohhh....I sense a Whole Foods Desert Taste Test coming on
Hiii Erin, ...Pizza. Try the pizza. ....Loved the video, and Hiiii Matt! ❤
I am amazed how large the cake slice is! 🙀 That is massive for the price. As for other hot bars, I was going to say Wegmans, but that is an East Coast store. Next time you are in North Carolina you have to do it!
There’s a local Seattle area food co-op called PCC Market that has the very best hot bar/ soup bar / salad bar / bakery etc. Love it!!!
I feel like I have heard of this! Is it a chain? Or just a single location?
@@ErinRobinson it’s a chain here in the Seattle area. 15 stores.
Your accent is the cutest!!
Since I can tell Erin wants to go eat from Whole Foods again, I vote YES for another video 😂. Ok, since she was in her backyard, I wonder if the neighbors still stare over the fence at her! 😂
Matt is tremendous. And warm up all hot bar food
I love any kind of buffet style food bar, i get so excited about all of the options that i forget anyone can touch it 😂
Sometimes ignorance is bliss with these things!
I used to not balk at open buffets. Post Covid, I don’t think that I’ve eaten at one. I also avoid public restrooms when possible. So that’s just me. Love your channel. I would like to see more Whole Food videos. I used to get made to order pizzas there, don’t know if that’s still a thing. Also they used to have a deli that made sandwiches. Unfortunately, my small Midwestern/Ohio valley town does not have a Whole Foods. That would be the reason, since moving, I haven’t been to one of their stores. Keep up the good work, dare I say excellent?
The Robinson effect again when you watch an Erin video and immediately want to grab your car keys and get the yummy food. Even if I am still in my pajamas at 3 o'clock on a Sunday and have a hair mask in..
That is so cute! The Robinson effect! I feel like that was the spell Matt cast on me the first time I saw him! I was like...I need to be Mrs.Robinson asap!
They used to have a ginger muffin there that was amazing!
I occasionally go to Whole Foods where I live now. It was WAY better in Canada though. Like not even comparable. Hot bar tip: Always always take the food from the back of the tray after you’ve dug up the top and tossed it aside (neatly) 😂🤷🏻♀️
I really enjoy watching your channel
I really love hearing this. It truly makes my day.
When I had whole food near me I use to get their salad bar and sushi. I have also tried there hot bar. It was not 11.99 lb, like now. That price is crazy high ( I was thinking 7.99 is high at other grocery stores)!! I would love to know how much you spent for each meal. That can add up really fast when it is by the lb.!!😊
Down here in South Florida, the hot bar Indian and Jamaican tasty, don't sleep on the cookie bar!
My go tos are the biscuits, the orange chicken and egg rolls, the pizza, and the salad bar.
This would be a great series to compare places with ready made stuff. Don't know what you have in LA, but places like Costco/Publix/Kroger. Any groceries tbh.
Lmao Erin I do not know how you did it, but you did ha. You're not even a vegetarian, yet you're definitely a better one than I am ahahha... I could never with some of these, I am so damn picky it's not even funny LOL😂😂. Anyway so good to have you back, cannot wait for the next one!! ❤❤ please make a part 2, 3 and however many you'd like!! I'd love to see them all.🎉
Also, hi Matt!! Always good to see him in these too! 💖💖
But that salad mix concoction was DELISH! I feel like you would love that
Loved the Tortured Poets Department, and unfortunately I also love hot bars
Your my favorite part of the video ❤
I think I need to check out Whole Foods again!
I think you do! But also...don't forget my hack!
They keep it pretty clean at whole foods. They even shut it down during 2 years of the pandemic. When they felt safe to do so, they reopened that option. Only serve yourself place I'll eat from. They are policing their plasticwear so no tasters in hotbar. I question myself sometimes but then i think of how things arent super tasty and nutritious when i attempt to cook. Plus dishes, and if you work from home, it effects your workflow for me sometimes having the extra clutter. Rainbow Acres is pretty good too. They have AMAZING guacamole!
Yes! I think there is a payoff with trading your time for meal prep but sometimes you just don't have the time to do it! I can see this becoming a great fallback option!
Whole Foods is good, I've been to one before. I liked hearing you talk about the strawberry shortcake and the mac and cheese. Try more things.
I appreciate this, Craig! Thank you!
Try the Broccoli Crunch Salad. It is sooooooo goood. Their custom sandwiches are good too.
Hi….seeing Matt and you try the stuff together😊
He certainly elevates these vids doesn't he?!??!
@@ErinRobinson yes, 😁. Thanks for answering me ❤️
yes I would like to see it again trying different items, I think it is quite high cost though?
Yas!!
Love me the Canadian Whole Foods Hot Bar. Delicious, worldly, healthy- yum (and I love all the local selections). However, I live on Vancouver Island where everything is expensive and whole foods shows up for that. A boxed meal for dinner the size you had would be $30 here. So, its a nice treat but not every day.
I actually like the hot bar! Maybe because it's just open access to food but I don't think too hard about whose around it. To that, it's Whole Foods; they are pretty consistent with high quality food, I trust them more than I would anywhere else. And I guess, too, if you think about it, it's essentially a buffet... oh I see what the issue is. LMAO
I’ve said in a past comment WF is my go to. And usually a little less processed than anything else I can find for a quick lunch in my city.
Yes! Do an everything at Whole Foods and tell us what we need to be getting!
Gosh, "everything" would cost me my retirement! I was kind of shocked at how pricy it all was. I mean, it was GOOD but that container of mac n cheese was like $14!~~~
I watch all your videos but never comment. So here's a comment for RUclips's algorithm. Also, hi Erin!
I APPRECIATE YOU SO MUCH! I also have a tendency to watch videos and never comment even though I know how much it helps creators. I am trying to see if I can rally some comment support because once my "base" audience engages then the algorithm will share it with more people. I call it the 50K view jail I get put into. Once I have a few videos that cross over that, then they serve me out again. It's so bizarre but I appreciate it!
@@ErinRobinson Yeah honestly, I had no idea. I do the blind "like" before watching but never comment because it's just not the way I typically consume content. I'll certainly make an effort going forward to comment more though. Keep the awesome content coming!
I would like to see more hot bar. I would also like to see a head to head Costco vs Whole Foods
Wait your Costco has a hot bar?
Absolutely love TTPD. Might become one of my fave of Taylor's albums.
My mouth was literally watering watching you enjoy the mac n cheese. Love a good comfort food.
Thoughts on Taylor's new album...the sings mostly sound the same. Ive got a couple favorites and the lyrics are phenomenal. But the musicality could be better. Still love me some Taylor Swift though.
The last time I went to a whole foods was ten years ago. I felt so out of place mind you I live in Phoenix and the one I went to was on camelback and 20th st. That part of town is a bit bougie but I felt like I went to Disneyland for the very first time! Lol it smelled great and there was a lot of stuff that I've never seen before. I was only able to afford to walk around lol I would love to see you do more if these videos it was fun 😄. You make it fun and watching you have fun keeps my mind off of my stress and my autoimmune nuisance! Like pain ugh! Oh how have you been feeling? Watching you take down your tree made me miss my dad he died in 2009 from prostate cancer. He used to love watching the food network and when I would get home from work he would make me a swan out of cucumbers tomatoes and he would put salt and lemon on it. And he would stand there to see if I liked it. I had to stop laughing so hard because he looked so cute waiting for me to say if I liked it. He looked like a kid that had to go pee pee really bad but wouldn't go until I said something lol. Your mommy was so fun and so pretty. I'm sorry she's no longer on this earth I bet she was a lot of fun to be around with . I'm sorry for rambling I haven't slept. I wanna say why but I won't it's a lot lol. Love you keep up the good work ❤❤❤😊
Hot bar summer!
I agree with not liking things where other people just put their hands in.
Definitely smart to go early.
But how expensive is it?
It can be pricey because it’s by weight.
The WF she went to in CA was
11.99 per LB.
I worked at whole foods. Most of it on the hot bar comes frozen or premade and it gets heated up (microwaved) with the sauce poured over it at the store. Only the uncooked food is fresh.
the light up Christmas tree for me
Yah, it's actually been up since Christmas 2022 when my mom was killed, and I couldn't bring myself to take it down. I did, however, actually JUST take it down yesterday so everyone will have to wait until Christmas to see it again if I can bring myself to bring it back out
Hugs
