@@corybush3406 Probably because Trump forgot to put a cap on prices so manufacturers couldn't raise prices during a crisis. Prices on eggs and milk alone skyrocketed before Trump left office. Milk and eggs are what most people could get. Covid was the true cause and manufacturers lost millions in income because of it
It is a unwritten doctrine in the United States that when our forefathers came onto this land as a religious persecution in a way because we had protestants removed from England because of the Roman in the Catholic, yeah the Roman Catholic Church they sent the protestants Christians to the New World so once they got there, they said no more England nothing to do with England, blah blah blah, even though they were still colonized They had enough with their antics so they created their own system so that’s why
Actually the US used American Customary Units since the 1800s. That's why a US pint and a UK pint are different. Calling the system Imperial is a common mistake, but it is wrong.
The Brits also coined the word Soccer and lots of words spellings/pronunciations we use in the US and then changed it but say we're wrong. I just laugh, lol.
Fresh Vegetables/Fruit prices change during the year. If they are "in season" then they were probably grown locally and are cheaper. If they are "out of season" then they have to be imported and are more expensive. It's how we have all of it all year round.
They're also in California, so a lot of that produce is going to be cheaper than it would be elsewhere in the US. Avocados, for example, tend to be a lot more expensive once you leave the west coast.
Organic food is always more expensive, but some people prefer it over “regularly” grown produce. Also it seems like they’re looking for gluten free and vegetarian/vegan options such as the coffee flavor vegan ice cream they bought, which may also be more expensive. And specialty items are going to be more expensive. Something to consider about the large package sizes, our refrigerators have large freezers, so people can buy a large package and use it for several meals, and the larger sizes are often less expensive per pound.
Funny thing is “organic” isnt fully organic. Its just got less preservatives and additives but still not 0. Ppl pay more to still consume those ingredients lmao.
It took me a minute to realize that they eat mainly vegan. When she picked up the Silk, I was really worried that she might think it was actually milk! Then I realized she knew it was plant-based, and I relaxed.
Quick tip for Disney. If you're taking your baby girl buy a cheap folding stroller (pram) at WalMart use it the whole time your there, it's easier than trying to bring one and then just donate it at the front desk of your hotel when you leave. Best $20 bucks I spent on a family vacation!!!
Anything you can take and donate is usually greatly appreciate in poorer countries. Good but not expensive hiking shoes, for example. Bulky to bring home, hugely appreciated in places like South America or Africa.
@@alanfoster6589 Yes, I used to travel to San Salvador (a small island in the Bahamas, where there is an expensive resort, but the local people are very poor) with a strict weight limit on my luggage. I would leave my snorkeling equipment behind so I could take home some souvenirs. They used it to rent out to future tourists. 🤠
Also, as a traveling musician, I know you can rent musical instruments in Orlando (as in most major cities with a live music scene), on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. Then, you don't have to donate after.
Refried beans: Cooked pinto or black beans mashed like mashed potatoes, mostly used as fillings in burritos and tacos but can be served as a side dish covered in cheese, either way they're delicious. Loved the reaction! Looking forward to your videos of Florida.
She mentioned French Fries…Walmart makes the BEST frozen french fries in giant bags for no money…regular, wide, crinkle cut and seasoned…as well as breakfast potatoes…
@@WaltonReeves-s7c DON'T get the waffle fries. There'll be like ONE whole waffle fry in the entire bag and everything else will be little bits and pieces, tiny pieces, crumbs.
The US was originally gonna be a metric country when we were founded, even before the UK switched, but a British ship sank the French ship that was carrying the kilogram standard Thomas Jefferson (first US ambassador to France) requested, and we decided it we couldn't wait for a second one and stuck with imperial.
My husband and father in law fed my son homemade vanilla ice cream when I started him on baby food. He wouldn't touch baby food with at. ft pole after that. I had to find soft ,runny,baby food like things after that. Refried beans and melted cheese is basically what he lived off of.
When you go to Orlando ask the locals where to eat and avoid all the tourist trap high prices and medium quality food. They know that you won't be back if your not thrilled and even if you are.
Hard to get lost in a walmart. If they look up there's signs all over the place. Also in the fruit and vegetable area they usually have scales that have both measurements on it and special bags for the loose fruit and vegetables. also we don't pay extra for the plastic bags but you do have to pay for reusable bag, only when you first buy it not everytime you use it lol. You also usually pay more for organic and their not always betters for you, they just have certain regulations they have to meet to be able to list as organic, and it may be as simple as no pesticide use or the kind of fertilizer. Also texas toast refers to bread that is cut in thicker slices.
In California, we pay 10 cents a bag. However, they just voted to veto ALL plastic bags. Not like they don't have more important things to be doing in our legislature. Sometime in the next 6 months, if you want a bag, it has to be 50% recyclable paper or buy the cotton type reusable/washable bags.
Minor correction/addition, but worthwhile - "certified organic" means that they've paid to have their farm and practices certified as only using a certain list of fertilizers and pesticides, not that there are less/none of them or that those fertilizers or pesticides are any more or less healthy than conventionally farmed food. Organic and conventionally farmed foods have the same nutritional content, and organic farms typically use substantially more pesticides and broader spectrum pesticides than do conventional farms, because the "naturally derived" pesticides aren't as effective or targeted as the synthetic versions. The farms also have lower yields (~20% less), which is a big part of why the food costs more.
October is the perfect time of year for Orlando. You’ll have great weather, and you’ll get to buy Halloween candy. Some of the resorts and theme parks decorate for Halloween too. I’ll definitely subscribe just to see your reaction to all the Halloween and Christmas stuff that Walmart will have out.
You're coming to the States, YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh Adam, yes please video tape your trip and the places you visit, whether it be an amusement park or any other attraction including going into stores, restaurants or fast food places. We all would love to see your reactions to these places through your eyes.
First off Walmart is considered a Mega Store or a Super Store. Supermarkets don't repair vehicles, sell tires, have a dentist, a hair salon, a bank, fast food and assorted other amenities. Walmart does. The honey in the corn dogs is in the breading on the outside. Gives them a slight sweet taste. We have sweet peas, sweet corn, regular yellow corn, white corn, mixed color corn.....you have to read the labels. Silk is soy milk.
This Family Is So Confusing, They Have The Lifestyle of a Family That Shouldn't Be On a Tight Budget Because They Eat Organic & Gluten Free, Which Is Priced Higher Than Regular/Common Brands, It's a Bit Puzzling & Funny at The Same Time 🤔
"Sweet corn" doesn't mean the same thing in the UK as it does here. "Sweet corn" over there is just what they call regular yellow corn. They call it that to distinguish it from the type of corn used as cattle feed. I've never seen what we call 'sweet corn' in the UK -- which doesn't mean that they don't have it, mind you. They might well do. I just never saw it when I lived there.
@@tyroneheath2497 I wonder why they didn't look for the vegetarian fries. What they bought most likely was made using beef fat. Maybe they know that....
@@donnabert Oh! Never mind, then I guess you do use it the same way. In New York State -- where corn is grown but obviously far, *far* less than in Iowa -- the only time you ever see "sweet corn" advertised is farm stands selling particularly sweet *varieties* of corn on the cob, the sort we always ate raw.
I think a musical instrument section is the only thing Walmart doesn’t have. But at a super center they have just about everything else you can think of.
I've seen guitars and keyboards and small musical instruments like cymbals and tambourine over close to the workout equipment and outdoors activities supplies part of course I haven't walked inside a Walmart in over 3 years so no telling what they have now
Walmart also has complete online shopping as well, so what you want you select online and have delivered straight to your door by your shopper within a few hours for the cost of 12 dollars monthly subscription/membership fee (discounted to 6 dollars for low-income). What they do not have in stock for delivery will be delivered via mail within a maximum or 2 or 3 days or less, free. This is ideal for apartment living with no car or for older people or anyone too busy to fit grocery shopping into their schedule. I switched to this style of shopping during the pandemic and will never go back as it makes my life so easy and all of Walmart is available to me, with no driving or toting of bags.
Adam, we Americans love salad. That container of greens would only last me 6 days/average. I try to have a salad everyday then also spinach and kale in a smoothie or to juice for a green drink. This helps me get my micronutients 😂
The US tried to change to metric (most product do have ounces and grams listed) but when governments realized the cost in changing road signs, and the like it became "F&ckI t!"
I was around back then and it had nothing to do with cost, the public just rejected the idea of changing, said, "were not going to do it." The km roadsides had already gone up in Wisconsin and people found them so annoying, they had to take them down
I remember being in grade school when they started the switch. It was really confusing because one week the teacher was leading us through trying to learn the new measurements, and the next week they were like, yeah, well we're not going to do that now. 🤷🏻♀️ What? I don't remember what year it was, just my confusion.
@@greeneyedlady5580 I was also in grade school when we were going to make the switch, and as a result, I never actually learned either Imperial *or* metric measurements. The teacher skipped right over that chapter in the workbook because "you guys are never going to need to know this stuff! You'll do metric next year." Then we never did metric. I *still* need to consult a cheat sheet every time I need to know how many pints are in a gallon, or how exactly teaspoons and tablespoons relate to each other. I never learned any of that as a kid, and all of attempts to learn it on my own as an adult seem doomed to failure. Eventually I just printed out a cheat sheet for myself and tossed it in the junk drawer in the kitchen so it's there for me every time I have to figure out how to double some recipe that uses those ridiculous illogical measurements.
The first grapes (in the plastic tub) were blueberries, which is why they were so expensive. The big bag of grapes for $2.78 (iirc) was priced per pound. If the container is open like that then you can add/remove some, in theory, and but more or less of them. If the container has a barcode it's going to be whatever price is posted. If not, then it's probably by weight.
The craziest part is that they are putting the fruits and veggies in the cart without putting them in a plastic bag first. Just sitting on those carts where kids sometimes sit and fart. Edit: We really are a divided nation. 😂
I go to Walmart once a week. Like you, I just throw it in the cart mostly. I don't like crowds so I have found that going early in the morning is the best. I am usually there on a weekend morning at around 8 or 9 am. The earlier the better. I have aisles to myself for the most part and I can just take my time. Love corn dogs, I may have to get a box this weekend now!
Sure, but given it's in Orlando they certainly have a ton of disneyworld merchandise throughout the store. Shirts, mugs, toys, post cards, towels, posters etc. All the space that would generally be used to sell the local college/pro team's merchandise.
She didn’t say the ice cream was only sold near Disney. She basically saw the ice cream and commented that there are many Disney themed items there due to its proximity. That’s a true statement. Our stores have way more Disney themed items than stores in other cities due to Disney tourists.
OK even here in America there are people who don't know and are even freaked out by "corndogs" I will now give you a through explanation of what a corndog is by someone who likes corndogs. First a corndog is an American hotdog, not a sausage or a bratwurst or pudding, but an American hotdog. it in dipped in a cornbread batter and fried. that is the stuff around the hotdog. it is on a stick so it can be handled without getting your hands all greasy. So it is a cornbread covered hotdog thus Corn Dog. The "honey" you were seeing on the package was because it was a Honey Cornbread on the corndog as opposed to a less sweet regular cornbread.
We buy those big bags of fries, veg, etc because we typically have big freezers in our kitchens. I understand that is not as common a thing in the UK. So we can stretch those bags into two, sometimes three meals. We usually do a shop once a week or twice a month, so we buy things in bulk to stretch our money. :D
@@johnstup4479 Tell him to pick up a box of State Fair honey batter corn dogs. Those are Awesome straight out of the microwave. Quick yummy snack in the hotel room.
Texas Toast comes in many different varieties. The most popular is garlic bread, but they also have cheese, parmesan, herb, etc. It's just really thick slices of bread. You'll never guess what Texas Tea is. Refried beans are a mexican food. If you go to a Mexican restaurant they often come as a side. I don't like beans to begin with because so refried beans are a double no for me. When they have left over beans from one mean you smash them up and fry them with some mexican spices. You didn't watch tot the end to see how much they spent.
Some produce they looked at was organic, that is why it was more expensive. They will be shocked with the grapes. That price was per pound not per bag.
Not all Americans call them shopping carts. There are many colloquial terms for the same items. Firefly = lightning bug. Soda = pop. Where I grew up we called shopping carts "buggies". lol
Yeah, but I think the only thing we call a "trolley" in the U.S. are the public transit vehicles that look like small trains, whether they're on a track or not.
dude you can make corndogs. you just need oil to fry, cornmeal and honey to make the batter, hotdogs and some sticks. make a batter and dip and fry, that easy. they take about 15 minutes and most of the time is waiting for the oil to get to temp.
Here in the South shopping cart = buggy. When my daughter moved to the San Francisco Bay area, she went shopping with her housemates and confused the heck out of them by offering to go get a buggy.
Adam, you sound like a great guy. Any guy who walks through the store looking for what to buy, has my admiration! My husband would only go get what he wanted and walk out. Women, we like to go through the entire store looking for "ideas" of what to buy. 😊 Also your baby is going to be spoiled. You wanted those parents to get something for the child. 👌
Oh, you're going to visit Florida?! I'm so excited for you! I hope you have a wonderful time! Make sure you try a Cuban sandwich while there if you can. Remember there is good BBQ in Florida too (shout out to Dustin's). I hope you have the best time when you go! Minor correction= Here in the USA, we have peas and sweet peas as we as corn and sweet corn. Yes, there is a difference. We actually have multiple varieties of corn here from dense to calico corn and each has it's different texture and sweetness level.
@@Bad_Meach no I mist a couple of words it was supposed to say; are there vegan BBQ's, I hope Florida does. I must not of proofread the first. I do know the difference between vegan beans and non vegan beans. But thanks for showing me that I messed up my comment
@@jefffredenburg7231 It’s difficult to have vegan BBQ when barbecue is the method used to cook meat. Now, there are smoked side dishes such as Mac & cheese but it just all depends on the restaurant. I’m sorry I wasn’t more helpful.
Doing conversions on measuring systems is generally silly. I use both, and can eyeball metric fastener sizes on vehicles. Doing construction, all the panel sizes are those that go into four feet.
The thing that they don't realize is that everytown of any reasonable size has a Walmart in it. And most of them have the same things. Some are better than others depending on the town
I buy those large packages of salad mix and my husband and I can eat from them 3 times before I need more. So yes it is more practical to buy the big package. When our grandchildren are here staying the weekend with us we can go through that big package of salad mix in one setting. it will feed 5 to 6 people in one setting.
2:24 Mom made the right call here. Those kinds of packs he was picking up are notorious for being either fakes, or leftovers from packs that have had the good stuff taken.
In general, Walmart doesn't allow filming/photography inside the store, so, just be careful... ideally work with the manager ahead of time (having someone walk with you as a "tour guide", for instance). It's good PR (and it ensures that filming doesn't cross lines that corporate doesn't want crossed.) That said? You only got to see a *tiny* fraction of the aisles here as the family shopping were vegan and were being *super* selective in what they were buying, so missed the vast, and I do mean VAST, majority of the aisles here. The cereal and snacks aisles will bring tears to your eyes. :D You're gonna be in Heaven when you walk through some of them. There's usually a souvenier-type area, with T-shirts that have sports teams based on the state you're in, caps, and so on, that's worth a look, and while it's hard to find, ask around in the books or electronics sections for maps or a road atlas... maps will give you a better grasp of the size of where you are and it'd be a nice keepsake from your travel. (The exact location varies by store, but with the books and magazines is generally where they go.) On this one, the weirdest one for me was watching a British person confused over how much a pound ways vs a kilogram, since we got our measurements from the UK originally. (And "Aubergine' being a French word, rather than the "Eggplant" that we use in American English.) For the record, an American Pound (should as "LB" on packages) is 0.454 KG or, to make it easy, about half a Kilo. That'll help you understand how much you're getting a bit closer. (Okay, a pound is half a kilo. I can work with that.) At Wal-Mart, the price will be shown on the yellow label, while the orange part shows the price-per-pound. No idea if that's helpful since you say you just throw it all in the cart and move on, but, figured you're want to know. :D
Shut up,.seriously just SHUT UP! Walmart doesn't really give a flying crap about that, there too busy trying to F up someone's life by accusing them of theft! Just a last piece of advice, you should stop posting novels because MOST people will not even read it!
I live in Florida. When in Orlando you have to go to Publix grocery store. So much better than Walmart. You have to try their bakery. Breads, sugar cookies, cakes with buttercream icing and donuts. Everything in their bakery is so good. Their deli has awesome chicken tender sub sandwiches. Their hot spicy and naked wings are great too. In their coolers in the deli their lemonade is good. In their deli foods chicken salad, southern potato salad is good also. Utz cheese balls in the clear cannister is really good. Their other chips are great as well. In your travels if you see a Buc-ees you have to stop. Everyone raves about it and they have everything there. Their sandwiches, deserts and jerky is great. I am in Jacksonville which is in the Northeast part of Florida.
Authentic refried beans are fried with lard, not butter. This couple though, would have to use olive, avocado or coconut oil instead of lard and that would completely change the taste
12:22 Texas toast is just bread that is sliced thicker. It's usually ¾ inch (19 mm) thick. You can buy a plain loaf like you would any other bread. When it's prepared, it's usually buttered on both sides and toasted just on the outside while being fluffy on the inside. Garlic and cheese are common additions. The prepared stuff in the freezer aisle is going to be much more expensive than making it yourself.
@@pattybeckett5121you use them on the surf when the waves are on the way out if that makes sense. If you throw it down and try to skim when the surf is on the way in it doesn’t work/ think about it.
In my are there are 3 grocery stores. Walmart, Aldi, and a regular large grocery store. Aldi's prices are cheaper than Walmart's! 13:56 those State Fair brand corn dogs are a shadow of the hand dipped ones you get at our State Fair (Minnesota)! Omg I can eat loads of them, so good!
I'm like you. Just toss it in the cart. I do compare items like milk prices or glance at certain things that I don't care about brand for cheaper but for most things I grab what I want/need. Can't tell you what a bag of chips/crisps cost or even a bag of veg. Loaf of bread? No clue. I THINK? I know which store they are in with all the Disney stuff in the front. It's "tourist central" Also they are buying all the organic/expensive type things in areas other than the fresh fruit/veg. (Was at this store...if I'm correct on location...the oranges, with FL is famous for, had stickers from another country on them so for sure not local!) If they weren't buying all the quite expensive bread/pizza etc stuff, in the middle of a high tourist area the price would be much cheaper. This family is extra!
The organ is more expensive on some things. About is basically the same on those big tubs of salad. With bananas I think it's Scott $.10 a lb difference. Yes, they are posting more on some products to get the vegan options, but they are also not spending a dime on any kind of meat, cheese, eggs, or any other dairy product. They certainly would have spent more if they were buying those things instead.
@@greeneyedlady5580 Agree and disagree. They did buy "fake" meat...can't remember the brand or name..., which from my understanding is quite expensive. Most dairy products and eggs (unless you are buying something really fancy or imported) are pretty cheap. Also shopping where they did as I mentioned. Not a reality for normal prices in tourist central.
I’m from a very small town in the Midwest. Sometimes you just go to Walmart to walk around. Look at the selection, the prices, and the people. Also, Walmart has recently announced that they’re returning to 24hr stores since Covid. This is a good thing. The peak Walmart experience happens at 3 am.
Avocado are great on sandwiched and toast but the are the BESY when mixed with chopped onions, chopped tomatoes, Jalapeños, cilantro and great chunky Mexican salsa and some lime juice. Now it is Guacamole dip and it is wicked with tortilla chips!!
@@WaltonReeves-s7c Vegetarian friend of mine made these awesome sandwiches, mashed avocados on the bottom of a submarine roll topped with sliced tomatoes, thin onion slices, lettuce, whatever veg take your fancy - she once added some leftover zucchini fried in olive oil with garlic - and drizzled Italian salad dressing on the inside of the top bun. Freshly grated black pepper. Delicious, and I'm NOTa vegetarian.
The crazy part is the brit understanding none of the UK verity we do have Sausage patty we don't have that Every real family that does pay attention to there shop knows we have always sold square sausage
Going through some comments, it looks like people described refried beans really well. Now tofurkey and Silk are vegan, both made of soy. Basically, they're short for "tofu turkey" and "soy milk". They're okay options for vegans, vegetarians, or anyone having difficulties with meat or dairy products.
TAKIS that was freakin funny, i can't put stuff in my mouth w/o knowing what it is...i had a few chest freezers bc alot of time i would buy 1/2 cow, some pig, put up 100 doz ears of corn (fav veg) cut off cobb, green beans, blueberries, strawberries etc. Cheaper than groc stores...
17:00 There is a variety of corns and peas here in the USA. Sweet corn and peas is much more sweet and less bitter then regular corn or peas, but Walmart stocks what sells. Often lower quality of those items as well, but they will have some good quality of those items on hand (just a lot more expensive).
In the United States, the Congress passed a law many years ago. Mandating the transition to the metric system. But the people put their foot down and said no. We like the system that we have. And we're used to it, and we soon see no reason to change. Americans can be not only hard-headed but stubborn.
Well we really should just switch to the metric system. Literally everyone else in the world uses it and it won't make things complicated. Just teach it in schools starting in Kindergarten and faze out the Imperial system.
It's not stubbornness that stopped us from going metric. The US hasn't completely switched because the cost of doing so has been estimated to be several billion dollars. And, it doesn't make sense to spend that much money just so we can be like every other country that has. Not all other countries have, by the way. The reality is, that America uses both systems, like many other 'metric' countries do. No one ever mentions that when making the conversion argument. America has not been hurt by not switching. Sometimes it's actually good to be different and unique and to stand apart, choosing to go your own way. That choice not only makes the world more interesting, but it is also a strong driver for innovation; for which America is known. Contrary to what many people might say, America's doing a lot better than most countries in many easily verified ways. So Americans are definitely doing something right. The imperial system is as accurate and as precise as the metric system is, and it always has been. Are people not aware of that? One other point: the commercial industry in the US, almost entirely, uses the metric system. That is because it makes financial sense for them to pay whatever their cost of conversion may be. Businesses make money selling goods and services to consumers. Businesses get more consumers by exporting their goods and services to foreign countries. But, businesses don't actually make money from the consumers they have access to. They have to convert those consumers into actual customers. Buisnesses make money from their customers. Whatever it takes to get more customers, businesses do. Successful businesses always have and always will; it's smart. Making products that use standardized components and tooling appeals to consumers everywhere.
You seem amazed ate the size of the bags but in the rural areas whe have big refrigerator freezers plus a big freezer in the garage or basement to store foods so that big bag will last a few weeks or more. I'm in the mountains so in winter we will have months of food stored up. I like to keep 6 months of meats, can goods and dry foods like rice and beans and pasta. Oh plus 1 years worth of emergency rations. And add lots of ammo for elk and deer.
Lol, I just throw stuff in the cart as well. It makes the total price a surprise every time. 😅 Honey in the corn dogs is in the corn breading. Btw, Ezekial 4:9 bread is great. It’s made with sprouted grains.
Morningstar Farms makes excellent vegetarian corn dogs. Many years ago I took some for myself on a family camping trip. The first night there, i gave one to my sister, who won't eat actually hotdogs, and she REALLY liked them. She had to call another sister who was coming to join us the next day to ask her to buy some more to bring along. The third sister decided if they were that good, she'd get a box for herself too. From then on, every time the 3 of us and our familiarities went camping, the vegetarian corn dogs came along.
In the south we call shopping trolleys "buggies" or "carts" Takis are just rolled up,fried corn tortillas with flaming hot spices and food dye. They just came out with a flavor that has no heat. It's called Buckin' Ranch. They are ranch flavored.
For the record they are in one of the most expensive States for groceries. You have to remember Walmart is not a grocery store it's more of a One-Stop shop have it all kind of store so if you want cheaper prices on groceries then you should go to a grocery store and the prices will be much cheaper probably more kin to what you're used to paying in the UK. Don't worry a lot of Americans make this mistake too they automatically think Walmart is the cheapest because all their prices are supposedly rollback prices and that's how Walmart sucks the average American consumer in and the average American consumer doesn't have the common sense to compare Walmart food prices to an actual grocery store. Also we do have a lidil here in the US and the prices you were talking about in the UK are the same prices here in the US and you also have to keep in mind that price is very extremely depending on the region you're in for example you might go to California and a gallon of milk might cost you $4 to $6 then you go somewhere like Tennessee and it might only cost you two or three dollars. So it really depends on the cost of living in the state / region you're in therefore will determine the prices of the goods in the store. For example in Tennessee if the minimum wage is around $10 then obviously the cost of living like groceries are going to be cheaper in that state or where you if you go to California and the minimum wage is 15 to $20 an hour then obviously groceries are going to be more expensive there's a lot of things people from other countries don't consider when coming to the US.
Sweet Corn is the fresh corn picked in late July early August. It is out for a few weeks maybe and hard to get. Aficionados of Sweet Corn are in the store early opening up the husks and checking if it is real Sweet Corn and that there are no insects etc... FANS OF THIS CORN WILL TURN UP THEIR NOSES AT FROZEN CORN WITH "SWEET" ON THE LABEL. It is a summer ritual. For BBQ and family get togethers/reunions. Sweet Peas are Lathyrus Odoratus. Not just any pea.
Adam, you need to get yourself to Texas man! Two things you haven't had before are staples in TexMex- avocado (for yummy guacamole) and refried beans! I know you love good food, TexMex is something else. Don't get me wrong I ❤ a good BBQ but I equally ❤ me some TexMex!!!!
They were in SoCal (Southern California). Probably Anaheim (Disneyland is in Anaheim). Disney World In Orlando is 2,500 miles away. I was just at home for Thanksgiving, in Anaheim. You can see the fireworks at Disneyland every night. I miss that.
Obviously he's more level headed than the likes of you. Name me 5 vegans who committed mass shootings or terrorist attacks that resulted in mass casualties. I'll wait
@@Marcel_Audubonno that’s terrible there is nothing wrong with being vegan or vegetarian alr whateve you wanna be but don’t make your kids do that because you have a superiority complex and don’t eat animal products
When looking at the price of any food item at Wal Mart, there is a white part that shows the price of the item, and a red part that show the price per weight unit. Some are priced by the pound, and others are price by the ounce. Produce and fresh meats are listed by the pound. Almost everything else is listed by the ounce. Conversion from ounces from grams is 1ounce is 28 grams. There are 16 ounces in a pound. 16X28=448. So there is 448 grams in a lb. So, 2 lbs equals 896 grams, or rather .9 kilogram if rounded. Conversion from kg to lbs is easy enough. You take 1000 grams (1kg) and divide it by 28, and you get the number of ounces it converts to, which is 35.7 ounces when rounded. If you divide that by 16, then you get the number of pounds it weighs, which is 2.23 lbs. It sounds complicated, but it that is only because for some odd reason, America decided to use a weight system that was created by Britain, that Britain later on decided not to use for some reason or other. It was originally called The British Imperial System... I mean c'mon... XD
17:05 There's probably a reason that I don't know about why they're marketed as "Sweet Peas" but we just call them peas. Sometimes we have to say "sweet corn" to differentiate it from field corn, which humans don't really want to eat.
I love Orlando even though heat stroke issues run in my family. As a kid, we would vacation at a minor time share we had in Orlando. Disney is good, but if you can go to Universal Studios, the tickets are cheaper then Disney and if you want to go multiple times, the year-long membership is cheaper than a week worth of tickets. It has the different harry Potter exhibits and rides and most of the rides in the 2 parks are more designed for older teens and adults while most of Disney rides are designed for kid or teens instead of adults. Have fun whatever you do and wherever you go. If you do go to Disney, make sure to ride space mountain and the haunted hotel both great classic rides at disney.
I much prefer my trusty freedom units. They've served me well. Plus, if it's anything like soccer, we'll adopt it, then the British will change it AGAIN, then bitch at us AGAIN for not changing AGAIN. I'd much rather stick to my pounds, feet, yards, miles, and whatnot.
Since you are going to Orlando you should make a quick day trip to Busch Gardens Howl-O-Scream since you will be there in October. Lots of fun. Also you should try both the restaurants O'charleys and Carrabbas. They are so good.❤
Growing up in California (USA) we had an avocado tree and a lemon tree. I'd go outside and pick an avocado and a lemon. You just can't get the same taste from the stuff in the grocery stores. These were naturally ripened and true power snacks. Miss those trees.
Corn dog= a hot dog dipped in corn bread batter...so the one labeled with "honey" means it has a sweet corn bread coating. Amazingly yummy. Refried beans are pinto beans that have been cooked, then squashed into a paste and then fried (which is why authentic ones have lard). They remain a soft but tasty paste. Silk is fake milk, no cows involved. lol Sorry but when they show me the udders on an almond, I might consider trying the stuff, lol
You are heading for Orlando at a good time of year. Tips, because I've seen tragedy at closing time in the theme parks. 1. No matter the weather, get some high elf sunscreen. Too many of your people walk out looking fried. I used to carry a big can of spray sunscreen, every time I heard the accent, I would casually wander closer and ask if they had sunblock on. My favorite answer was "But it's February, and there are some clouds." The only answer to that is "You are translucent, you will burn." If they agreed, I would line them up and spray them. 2. Tuesday and Thursday are the least crowded. 3. Store brands are generally cheaper. 4. Good idea to Google "Theme Park strategy"
omg the great value brand fries, I have like 12lbs of the seasoned, 5lbs of the crinkle cut and one last serving of the wedges in my freezer right now. Sadly the waffle cut actually aren't that great, they never cook all the way through and I just don't like mushy fries. I WANT EM CRISPY!!
The reason they are spending more for let’s say the boxed grapes is because they are prepackaged if they would have bought just a vine of grapes they would be less expensive
The fruit in that plastic “box” was blueberries not grapes. They got a bunch of grapes “on the vine” in the plastic bags a few minutes after getting the blueberries.
@@kimcat3760 Can you understand it don’t matter what fruit it is is it just cost more when it is prepackaged or any other food it just cost more…do I have to break it down for you or do you need charts? Go to a grocery store once in awhlile stop telling people that are really curios about America bull
@@kimcat3760 Why do you think that nasty is the truth…have you been to a store lately..I’m just trying to give him a proseptive on what American stores are really like….get over yourself and see reality
Hi Adam, This Family (Family Freedom) is one I watch a good deal. They spent around a Month in Orlando Florida. Rented flats to stay in and of course had a working kitchen and needed groceries. They are Vegan. Tofurky is Tofu flavoured like Turkey. Don't worry Adam. Marmite is rather expensive in the US since it's imported from the UK. So either they won't find it at all. Or it will be hideously expensive hehehe. Texas toast is thick sliced white bread. I'd estimate around double a normal slice of bread. Don't worry about Jo-Jo Just watch one of their Xmas videos and you'll see how much Pokemon and Leggo he has. By the way the Lad is a very tall 12 year old here. Refried Beans is a Mexican dish. you cook beans in water and a bit of salt. when they are tender you mash or blend them and fry them in a bit of oil or Lard (Pork Fat). Yum! Vegans don't drink cow's milk. Silk is a brand name. The have Soy, Oat, Hemp milks and many more. Take Care my friend, Jim Mexico
LIVE RIGHT NOW DRESSED AS A CHICKEN... www.twitch.tv/adamcouser
@@corybush3406 Probably because Trump forgot to put a cap on prices so manufacturers couldn't raise prices during a crisis. Prices on eggs and milk alone skyrocketed before Trump left office. Milk and eggs are what most people could get. Covid was the true cause and manufacturers lost millions in income because of it
I know Americans are spoiled I am one but there's a reason why and we're proud of it I guess
Was the best (: enjoyed it!!!
It is a unwritten doctrine in the United States that when our forefathers came onto this land as a religious persecution in a way because we had protestants removed from England because of the Roman in the Catholic, yeah the Roman Catholic Church they sent the protestants Christians to the New World so once they got there, they said no more England nothing to do with England, blah blah blah, even though they were still colonized They had enough with their antics so they created their own system so that’s why
Oh my Lord, they’re not grapes. They’re blueberries.
History lesson. The British were the ones that brought the imperial system over to the US. They were the ones that changed.
I was going to say this... It's the Brits fault!!!
Exactly lol. And we're not changing. The only thing I know about a litter is a 2 liter coke. Other than that I'm lost
IT'S ALL THE FRENCH'S FAULT!!!!!!!
Actually the US used American Customary Units since the 1800s. That's why a US pint and a UK pint are different. Calling the system Imperial is a common mistake, but it is wrong.
The Brits also coined the word Soccer and lots of words spellings/pronunciations we use in the US and then changed it but say we're wrong. I just laugh, lol.
Fresh Vegetables/Fruit prices change during the year. If they are "in season" then they were probably grown locally and are cheaper. If they are "out of season" then they have to be imported and are more expensive. It's how we have all of it all year round.
They're also in California, so a lot of that produce is going to be cheaper than it would be elsewhere in the US. Avocados, for example, tend to be a lot more expensive once you leave the west coast.
They probably went to the 'neighborhood Wal-Mart' the first time. They're in the Supercenter now, baby!
Organic food is always more expensive, but some people prefer it over “regularly” grown produce. Also it seems like they’re looking for gluten free and vegetarian/vegan options such as the coffee flavor vegan ice cream they bought, which may also be more expensive. And specialty items are going to be more expensive. Something to consider about the large package sizes, our refrigerators have large freezers, so people can buy a large package and use it for several meals, and the larger sizes are often less expensive per pound.
Funny thing is “organic” isnt fully organic. Its just got less preservatives and additives but still not 0. Ppl pay more to still consume those ingredients lmao.
And vegans are still consuming additives that hurt the planet more than eating meat. Its just hilarious.
Vegan icecream, really,yuck
Why are they at Walmart shopping for food
6:02 I think those are blueberries
Those were definitely blueberries. He thought they were a lot of f grapes, he should see the 3 lb packages I normally buy my black grapes in
If you listen he says that, and blueberries are usually expensive
@@jefffredenburg7231 I was referring more to Adam calling them grapes
My grocery store has that size blueberries this week, 2 for $5. I never shop at Walmart.
They are thinking it is $2.68 for the full bag of grapes when , in fact, it is that price per lb.
It took me a minute to realize that they eat mainly vegan. When she picked up the Silk, I was really worried that she might think it was actually milk! Then I realized she knew it was plant-based, and I relaxed.
Funny how they picked out a lot of non vegan options lol.
No respectable human is a vegan. God made animals for consumption.
Vegan,really? I am soooo disappointed.
Quick tip for Disney. If you're taking your baby girl buy a cheap folding stroller (pram) at WalMart use it the whole time your there, it's easier than trying to bring one and then just donate it at the front desk of your hotel when you leave. Best $20 bucks I spent on a family vacation!!!
Excellent idea!!! All travel agents and Disney should suggest this. 🤠
Anything you can take and donate is usually greatly appreciate in poorer countries. Good but not expensive hiking shoes, for example. Bulky to bring home, hugely appreciated in places like South America or Africa.
@@alanfoster6589 Yes, I used to travel to San Salvador (a small island in the Bahamas, where there is an expensive resort, but the local people are very poor) with a strict weight limit on my luggage. I would leave my snorkeling equipment behind so I could take home some souvenirs. They used it to rent out to future tourists. 🤠
Also, as a traveling musician, I know you can rent musical instruments in Orlando (as in most major cities with a live music scene), on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. Then, you don't have to donate after.
Refried beans: Cooked pinto or black beans mashed like mashed potatoes, mostly used as fillings in burritos and tacos but can be served as a side dish covered in cheese, either way they're delicious. Loved the reaction! Looking forward to your videos of Florida.
I like using chili beans cause of the seasoning
Not just mashed. Mashed and fried in a rye. Hence - refried.
She mentioned French Fries…Walmart makes the BEST frozen french fries in giant bags for no money…regular, wide, crinkle cut and seasoned…as well as breakfast potatoes…
yes! We practically lived through my husbands last 3 years of university on Great Value tator tots and hamburger patties.
I hate great value fries. They are greasy and taste more like oil than potato
@@livinginstereo If they are greasy it is how you are cooking them. They are frozen RAW potatoes when you buy them.
@@WaltonReeves-s7c DON'T get the waffle fries. There'll be like ONE whole waffle fry in the entire bag and everything else will be little bits and pieces, tiny pieces, crumbs.
@@lindasavelle1731can confirm. had to switch to the oreida brand for my chili cheese fries
The US was originally gonna be a metric country when we were founded, even before the UK switched, but a British ship sank the French ship that was carrying the kilogram standard Thomas Jefferson (first US ambassador to France) requested, and we decided it we couldn't wait for a second one and stuck with imperial.
Haha, they were trying to introduce the metric system in the 70s, but no one would go for it.
Refried beans mixed with hot melted cheese and mild salsa for a dip for tortilla chips is AmaZing!!
I had that for lunch today! Yummy!!!
Here in Texas refried beans on warm flour tortillas is a happy breakfast.
Don't forget sour cream and avocado
My husband and father in law fed my son homemade vanilla ice cream when I started him on baby food. He wouldn't touch baby food with at. ft pole after that. I had to find soft ,runny,baby food like things after that. Refried beans and melted cheese is basically what he lived off of.
@@lindasavelle1731With an egg over medium.
When you go to Orlando ask the locals where to eat and avoid all the tourist trap high prices and medium quality food. They know that you won't be back if your not thrilled and even if you are.
Hard to get lost in a walmart. If they look up there's signs all over the place. Also in the fruit and vegetable area they usually have scales that have both measurements on it and special bags for the loose fruit and vegetables. also we don't pay extra for the plastic bags but you do have to pay for reusable bag, only when you first buy it not everytime you use it lol. You also usually pay more for organic and their not always betters for you, they just have certain regulations they have to meet to be able to list as organic, and it may be as simple as no pesticide use or the kind of fertilizer. Also texas toast refers to bread that is cut in thicker slices.
In California, we pay 10 cents a bag. However, they just voted to veto ALL plastic bags. Not like they don't have more important things to be doing in our legislature. Sometime in the next 6 months, if you want a bag, it has to be 50% recyclable paper or buy the cotton type reusable/washable bags.
U don’t understand how large and disorienting Walmart is if you’re not used to it. Hell I get lost I unserrrsncit
Minor correction/addition, but worthwhile - "certified organic" means that they've paid to have their farm and practices certified as only using a certain list of fertilizers and pesticides, not that there are less/none of them or that those fertilizers or pesticides are any more or less healthy than conventionally farmed food. Organic and conventionally farmed foods have the same nutritional content, and organic farms typically use substantially more pesticides and broader spectrum pesticides than do conventional farms, because the "naturally derived" pesticides aren't as effective or targeted as the synthetic versions. The farms also have lower yields (~20% less), which is a big part of why the food costs more.
Me too if going to another Walmart
October is the perfect time of year for Orlando. You’ll have great weather, and you’ll get to buy Halloween candy. Some of the resorts and theme parks decorate for Halloween too. I’ll definitely subscribe just to see your reaction to all the Halloween and Christmas stuff that Walmart will have out.
You're coming to the States, YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh Adam, yes please video tape your trip and the places you visit, whether it be an amusement park or any other attraction including going into stores, restaurants or fast food places. We all would love to see your reactions to these places through your eyes.
First off Walmart is considered a Mega Store or a Super Store. Supermarkets don't repair vehicles, sell tires, have a dentist, a hair salon, a bank, fast food and assorted other amenities. Walmart does. The honey in the corn dogs is in the breading on the outside. Gives them a slight sweet taste. We have sweet peas, sweet corn, regular yellow corn, white corn, mixed color corn.....you have to read the labels. Silk is soy milk.
This Family Is So Confusing, They Have The Lifestyle of a Family That Shouldn't Be On a Tight Budget Because They Eat Organic & Gluten Free, Which Is Priced Higher Than Regular/Common Brands, It's a Bit Puzzling & Funny at The Same Time 🤔
"Sweet corn" doesn't mean the same thing in the UK as it does here. "Sweet corn" over there is just what they call regular yellow corn. They call it that to distinguish it from the type of corn used as cattle feed.
I've never seen what we call 'sweet corn' in the UK -- which doesn't mean that they don't have it, mind you. They might well do. I just never saw it when I lived there.
@@tyroneheath2497 I wonder why they didn't look for the vegetarian fries. What they bought most likely was made using beef fat. Maybe they know that....
@@donnabert Oh! Never mind, then I guess you do use it the same way. In New York State -- where corn is grown but obviously far, *far* less than in Iowa -- the only time you ever see "sweet corn" advertised is farm stands selling particularly sweet *varieties* of corn on the cob, the sort we always ate raw.
Silk also makes coconut milk - which is delicious BTW! 🤤
We have sweet corn here too it’s just a different thing from the “regular” corn and it’s usually canned and not bagged
Who bags corn? If I want fresh corn . Ii go to a farmers market. There are several near here.
I think a musical instrument section is the only thing Walmart doesn’t have. But at a super center they have just about everything else you can think of.
Fun Fact: They actually do have instruments but they’re for kids. The brand is “First Act”. 😂👍
I've seen guitars and keyboards and small musical instruments like cymbals and tambourine over close to the workout equipment and outdoors activities supplies part of course I haven't walked inside a Walmart in over 3 years so no telling what they have now
Walmart also has complete online shopping as well, so what you want you select online and have delivered straight to your door by your shopper within a few hours for the cost of 12 dollars monthly subscription/membership fee (discounted to 6 dollars for low-income). What they do not have in stock for delivery will be delivered via mail within a maximum or 2 or 3 days or less, free. This is ideal for apartment living with no car or for older people or anyone too busy to fit grocery shopping into their schedule. I switched to this style of shopping during the pandemic and will never go back as it makes my life so easy and all of Walmart is available to me, with no driving or toting of bags.
Adam, we Americans love salad. That container of greens would only last me 6 days/average. I try to have a salad everyday then also spinach and kale in a smoothie or to juice for a green drink. This helps me get my micronutients 😂
The US tried to change to metric (most product do have ounces and grams listed) but when governments realized the cost in changing road signs, and the like it became "F&ckI t!"
I was around back then and it had nothing to do with cost, the public just rejected the idea of changing, said, "were not going to do it." The km roadsides had already gone up in Wisconsin and people found them so annoying, they had to take them down
I remember being in grade school when they started the switch. It was really confusing because one week the teacher was leading us through trying to learn the new measurements, and the next week they were like, yeah, well we're not going to do that now. 🤷🏻♀️ What? I don't remember what year it was, just my confusion.
@@greeneyedlady5580 I was also in grade school when we were going to make the switch, and as a result, I never actually learned either Imperial *or* metric measurements. The teacher skipped right over that chapter in the workbook because "you guys are never going to need to know this stuff! You'll do metric next year." Then we never did metric.
I *still* need to consult a cheat sheet every time I need to know how many pints are in a gallon, or how exactly teaspoons and tablespoons relate to each other. I never learned any of that as a kid, and all of attempts to learn it on my own as an adult seem doomed to failure. Eventually I just printed out a cheat sheet for myself and tossed it in the junk drawer in the kitchen so it's there for me every time I have to figure out how to double some recipe that uses those ridiculous illogical measurements.
Watching you have a bit of a meltdown over the food options that people from the U.S., like me, tend to take for granted makes me laugh.
You make me really appreciate my country!!!! Thank you!!
The first grapes (in the plastic tub) were blueberries, which is why they were so expensive. The big bag of grapes for $2.78 (iirc) was priced per pound. If the container is open like that then you can add/remove some, in theory, and but more or less of them. If the container has a barcode it's going to be whatever price is posted. If not, then it's probably by weight.
Yes.Those were a little high. Sometimes you can find them for $1.99 a lb.
The craziest part is that they are putting the fruits and veggies in the cart without putting them in a plastic bag first. Just sitting on those carts where kids sometimes sit and fart.
Edit: We really are a divided nation. 😂
You are supposed to wash your produce before you eat it.
Given that they're all plant based I would assume it was a choice to not get extra plastic because "environmentally friendly."
They don't use plastic bags
Just remember there are no close port o pottys to where people work in the field and pick those fruits and veggies...always wash your produce!
Oh, jeez, I'll bet you bought into that whole "m@sk" lie as well. Probably Still wear one. 😂😂
I go to Walmart once a week. Like you, I just throw it in the cart mostly. I don't like crowds so I have found that going early in the morning is the best. I am usually there on a weekend morning at around 8 or 9 am. The earlier the better. I have aisles to myself for the most part and I can just take my time. Love corn dogs, I may have to get a box this weekend now!
Mickey mouse ice cream is sold at all Walmart,all over the country. Not just near Disneyland or Disney world.
Walmart here does not have Mickey Mouse ice cream.
Sure, but given it's in Orlando they certainly have a ton of disneyworld merchandise throughout the store. Shirts, mugs, toys, post cards, towels, posters etc. All the space that would generally be used to sell the local college/pro team's merchandise.
My local store in the Midwest has it also. It's not a Walmart.
She didn’t say the ice cream was only sold near Disney. She basically saw the ice cream and commented that there are many Disney themed items there due to its proximity. That’s a true statement. Our stores have way more Disney themed items than stores in other cities due to Disney tourists.
@@jeffbartholomew1152 ok,just letting him know that their available at all walmarts
OK even here in America there are people who don't know and are even freaked out by "corndogs" I will now give you a through explanation of what a corndog is by someone who likes corndogs. First a corndog is an American hotdog, not a sausage or a bratwurst or pudding, but an American hotdog. it in dipped in a cornbread batter and fried. that is the stuff around the hotdog. it is on a stick so it can be handled without getting your hands all greasy. So it is a cornbread covered hotdog thus Corn Dog. The "honey" you were seeing on the package was because it was a Honey Cornbread on the corndog as opposed to a less sweet regular cornbread.
The first item you called grapes, were blueberries.
We buy those big bags of fries, veg, etc because we typically have big freezers in our kitchens. I understand that is not as common a thing in the UK. So we can stretch those bags into two, sometimes three meals. We usually do a shop once a week or twice a month, so we buy things in bulk to stretch our money. :D
Adam sees apple pie. Adam says "get inside me". 😆 Cheesy garlic Texas toast is awesome Adam and if I could, I'd send you a box of corn dogs.
I LOVE the Texas toast garlic bread. I eat it by itself.
@@johnstup4479 Tell him to pick up a box of State Fair honey batter corn dogs. Those are Awesome straight out of the microwave. Quick yummy snack in the hotel room.
Texas Toast comes in many different varieties. The most popular is garlic bread, but they also have cheese, parmesan, herb, etc. It's just really thick slices of bread. You'll never guess what Texas Tea is. Refried beans are a mexican food. If you go to a Mexican restaurant they often come as a side. I don't like beans to begin with because so refried beans are a double no for me. When they have left over beans from one mean you smash them up and fry them with some mexican spices. You didn't watch tot the end to see how much they spent.
Ok if you didn't watch to the end of the video, you missed them saying how much they paid. $101.55 so roughly just over 80 GBP.
Some produce they looked at was organic, that is why it was more expensive. They will be shocked with the grapes. That price was per pound not per bag.
Not all Americans call them shopping carts. There are many colloquial terms for the same items. Firefly = lightning bug. Soda = pop. Where I grew up we called shopping carts "buggies". lol
Same.
Yeah, but I think the only thing we call a "trolley" in the U.S. are the public transit vehicles that look like small trains, whether they're on a track or not.
Buggy here 🙋♀️
Also, all "sodas" are Coke here. "Want a Coke?"
"Sure!"
"What kind? We got Coke, Dr. Pepper, Sprite etc."
😂
Same, buggies is commonly what I've seen them called over the years
@@erinn5055 Yeah, just depends on where you live in the U.S. I usually call them all sodas. I used to call them pop when I was younger.
dude you can make corndogs. you just need oil to fry, cornmeal and honey to make the batter, hotdogs and some sticks. make a batter and dip and fry, that easy. they take about 15 minutes and most of the time is waiting for the oil to get to temp.
My UK daughter-in-law had me make her corn dogs last year when we went to visit. Now she makes her own.
Here in the South shopping cart = buggy. When my daughter moved to the San Francisco Bay area, she went shopping with her housemates and confused the heck out of them by offering to go get a buggy.

Adam, you sound like a great guy. Any guy who walks through the store looking for what to buy, has my admiration! My husband would only go get what he wanted and walk out. Women, we like to go through the entire store looking for "ideas" of what to buy. 😊
Also your baby is going to be spoiled. You wanted those parents to get something for the child. 👌
You don't have a husband, most stay in the store with their wife.
Oh, you're going to visit Florida?! I'm so excited for you! I hope you have a wonderful time! Make sure you try a Cuban sandwich while there if you can. Remember there is good BBQ in Florida too (shout out to Dustin's). I hope you have the best time when you go!
Minor correction= Here in the USA, we have peas and sweet peas as we as corn and sweet corn. Yes, there is a difference. We actually have multiple varieties of corn here from dense to calico corn and each has it's different texture and sweetness level.

@@jefffredenburg7231 Vegan BBQ?!?! You blasphemous heathen! 🤣Not sure how you plan to make smoke meats vegan 😝

I am glad that you are finally gonna be coming over here. We may never recover from your visit, but it will be fun.
No on the metric thingy. LoL.
Yeah, Americans aren't intelligent enough to figure That out.
How about yes
“Honey? i thought it was meat!” is one of the funniest things i’ve heard you say😂 they use honey in the breading man
Doing conversions on measuring systems is generally silly. I use both, and can eyeball metric fastener sizes on vehicles. Doing construction, all the panel sizes are those that go into four feet.
3:00 At least when you go to the store for milk you come back. I miss you Dad. lol
The thing that they don't realize is that everytown of any reasonable size has a Walmart in it. And most of them have the same things. Some are better than others depending on the town
I buy those large packages of salad mix and my husband and I can eat from them 3 times before I need more. So yes it is more practical to buy the big package. When our grandchildren are here staying the weekend with us we can go through that big package of salad mix in one setting. it will feed 5 to 6 people in one setting.
refried beans are also good.
2:24 Mom made the right call here. Those kinds of packs he was picking up are notorious for being either fakes, or leftovers from packs that have had the good stuff taken.
lol she definitely did not know that.
In general, Walmart doesn't allow filming/photography inside the store, so, just be careful... ideally work with the manager ahead of time (having someone walk with you as a "tour guide", for instance). It's good PR (and it ensures that filming doesn't cross lines that corporate doesn't want crossed.)
That said? You only got to see a *tiny* fraction of the aisles here as the family shopping were vegan and were being *super* selective in what they were buying, so missed the vast, and I do mean VAST, majority of the aisles here. The cereal and snacks aisles will bring tears to your eyes. :D
You're gonna be in Heaven when you walk through some of them.
There's usually a souvenier-type area, with T-shirts that have sports teams based on the state you're in, caps, and so on, that's worth a look, and while it's hard to find, ask around in the books or electronics sections for maps or a road atlas... maps will give you a better grasp of the size of where you are and it'd be a nice keepsake from your travel. (The exact location varies by store, but with the books and magazines is generally where they go.)
On this one, the weirdest one for me was watching a British person confused over how much a pound ways vs a kilogram, since we got our measurements from the UK originally. (And "Aubergine' being a French word, rather than the "Eggplant" that we use in American English.) For the record, an American Pound (should as "LB" on packages) is 0.454 KG or, to make it easy, about half a Kilo. That'll help you understand how much you're getting a bit closer. (Okay, a pound is half a kilo. I can work with that.) At Wal-Mart, the price will be shown on the yellow label, while the orange part shows the price-per-pound.
No idea if that's helpful since you say you just throw it all in the cart and move on, but, figured you're want to know. :D
Shut up,.seriously just SHUT UP! Walmart doesn't really give a flying crap about that, there too busy trying to F up someone's life by accusing them of theft! Just a last piece of advice, you should stop posting novels because MOST people will not even read it!
I live in Florida. When in Orlando you have to go to Publix grocery store. So much better than Walmart. You have to try their bakery. Breads, sugar cookies, cakes with buttercream icing and donuts. Everything in their bakery is so good. Their deli has awesome chicken tender sub sandwiches. Their hot spicy and naked wings are great too. In their coolers in the deli their lemonade is good. In their deli foods chicken salad, southern potato salad is good also. Utz cheese balls in the clear cannister is really good. Their other chips are great as well. In your travels if you see a Buc-ees you have to stop. Everyone raves about it and they have everything there. Their sandwiches, deserts and jerky is great. I am in Jacksonville which is in the Northeast part of Florida.
Refried beans are good. Cook beans normally then smash them into a skillet with butter and fry them…add some salsa! Great on burritos and tacos.
Authentic refried beans are fried with lard, not butter. This couple though, would have to use olive, avocado or coconut oil instead of lard and that would completely change the taste
@@charliedavis8894 I prefer butter…not so disgusting and only improves the taste.
@@WaltonReeves-s7c That's fine, as long as you and others know it's not authentic.
@@charliedavis8894 do not care…so much tastier to me with butter.
12:22 Texas toast is just bread that is sliced thicker. It's usually ¾ inch (19 mm) thick. You can buy a plain loaf like you would any other bread. When it's prepared, it's usually buttered on both sides and toasted just on the outside while being fluffy on the inside. Garlic and cheese are common additions. The prepared stuff in the freezer aisle is going to be much more expensive than making it yourself.

I'm like you. Just toss it in the cart. I do compare items like milk prices or glance at certain things that I don't care about brand for cheaper but for most things I grab what I want/need. Can't tell you what a bag of chips/crisps cost or even a bag of veg. Loaf of bread? No clue.
I THINK? I know which store they are in with all the Disney stuff in the front. It's "tourist central" Also they are buying all the organic/expensive type things in areas other than the fresh fruit/veg. (Was at this store...if I'm correct on location...the oranges, with FL is famous for, had stickers from another country on them so for sure not local!) If they weren't buying all the quite expensive bread/pizza etc stuff, in the middle of a high tourist area the price would be much cheaper. This family is extra!
I've said the same to others watching this. If you don't shop organic and vegan the price is a lot less.
The organ is more expensive on some things. About is basically the same on those big tubs of salad. With bananas I think it's Scott $.10 a lb difference. Yes, they are posting more on some products to get the vegan options, but they are also not spending a dime on any kind of meat, cheese, eggs, or any other dairy product. They certainly would have spent more if they were buying those things instead.
@@greeneyedlady5580 Agree and disagree. They did buy "fake" meat...can't remember the brand or name..., which from my understanding is quite expensive. Most dairy products and eggs (unless you are buying something really fancy or imported) are pretty cheap. Also shopping where they did as I mentioned. Not a reality for normal prices in tourist central.
I’m from a very small town in the Midwest. Sometimes you just go to Walmart to walk around. Look at the selection, the prices, and the people.
Also, Walmart has recently announced that they’re returning to 24hr stores since Covid. This is a good thing. The peak Walmart experience happens at 3 am.
Avocado are great on sandwiched and toast but the are the BESY when mixed with chopped onions, chopped tomatoes, Jalapeños, cilantro and great chunky Mexican salsa and some lime juice. Now it is Guacamole dip and it is wicked with tortilla chips!!
@@WaltonReeves-s7c Vegetarian friend of mine made these awesome sandwiches, mashed avocados on the bottom of a submarine roll topped with sliced tomatoes, thin onion slices, lettuce, whatever veg take your fancy - she once added some leftover zucchini fried in olive oil with garlic - and drizzled Italian salad dressing on the inside of the top bun. Freshly grated black pepper. Delicious, and I'm NOTa vegetarian.
The crazy part is the brit understanding none of the UK verity we do have
Sausage patty we don't have that
Every real family that does pay attention to there shop knows we have always sold square sausage
They went to the good Walmart lol
Going through some comments, it looks like people described refried beans really well. Now tofurkey and Silk are vegan, both made of soy. Basically, they're short for "tofu turkey" and "soy milk". They're okay options for vegans, vegetarians, or anyone having difficulties with meat or dairy products.
TAKIS that was freakin funny, i can't put stuff in my mouth w/o knowing what it is...i had a few chest freezers bc alot of time i would buy 1/2 cow, some pig, put up 100 doz ears of corn (fav veg) cut off cobb, green beans, blueberries, strawberries etc. Cheaper than groc stores...
17:00 There is a variety of corns and peas here in the USA. Sweet corn and peas is much more sweet and less bitter then regular corn or peas, but Walmart stocks what sells. Often lower quality of those items as well, but they will have some good quality of those items on hand (just a lot more expensive).
The “Crisp Isle”…ok, yes there many types and brands of chips, but then you also have the store brands of most…
I can't wait to see some videos of your time here in the States. Thank you for another great reaction 😊
In the United States, the Congress passed a law many years ago. Mandating the transition to the metric system. But the people put their foot down and said no. We like the system that we have. And we're used to it, and we soon see no reason to change. Americans can be not only hard-headed but stubborn.
Well we really should just switch to the metric system. Literally everyone else in the world uses it and it won't make things complicated. Just teach it in schools starting in Kindergarten and faze out the Imperial system.
I was one of those, lol.
I use the Google to convert.
@@deanabennett8461 Me too
It's not stubbornness that stopped us from going metric. The US hasn't completely switched because the cost of doing so has been estimated to be several billion dollars. And, it doesn't make sense to spend that much money just so we can be like every other country that has. Not all other countries have, by the way. The reality is, that America uses both systems, like many other 'metric' countries do. No one ever mentions that when making the conversion argument. America has not been hurt by not switching. Sometimes it's actually good to be different and unique and to stand apart, choosing to go your own way. That choice not only makes the world more interesting, but it is also a strong driver for innovation; for which America is known. Contrary to what many people might say, America's doing a lot better than most countries in many easily verified ways. So Americans are definitely doing something right. The imperial system is as accurate and as precise as the metric system is, and it always has been. Are people not aware of that? One other point: the commercial industry in the US, almost entirely, uses the metric system. That is because it makes financial sense for them to pay whatever their cost of conversion may be. Businesses make money selling goods and services to consumers. Businesses get more consumers by exporting their goods and services to foreign countries. But, businesses don't actually make money from the consumers they have access to. They have to convert those consumers into actual customers. Buisnesses make money from their customers. Whatever it takes to get more customers, businesses do. Successful businesses always have and always will; it's smart. Making products that use standardized components and tooling appeals to consumers everywhere.
You seem amazed ate the size of the bags but in the rural areas whe have big refrigerator freezers plus a big freezer in the garage or basement to store foods so that big bag will last a few weeks or more. I'm in the mountains so in winter we will have months of food stored up. I like to keep 6 months of meats, can goods and dry foods like rice and beans and pasta. Oh plus 1 years worth of emergency rations. And add lots of ammo for elk and deer.
the whole time, i worried about the ice cream melting
Lol, I just throw stuff in the cart as well. It makes the total price a surprise every time. 😅
Honey in the corn dogs is in the corn breading.
Btw, Ezekial 4:9 bread is great. It’s made with sprouted grains.
There's all kinds of corn dogs here! Big size or bite size!
Even breakfast corn dogs with pancakes and sausage lol
Morningstar Farms makes excellent vegetarian corn dogs. Many years ago I took some for myself on a family camping trip. The first night there, i gave one to my sister, who won't eat actually hotdogs, and she REALLY liked them. She had to call another sister who was coming to join us the next day to ask her to buy some more to bring along. The third sister decided if they were that good, she'd get a box for herself too. From then on, every time the 3 of us and our familiarities went camping, the vegetarian corn dogs came along.
Mini corn dogs are my favorite. I don’t like eating them off of a stick lol
@@richards8872 Footlong corndogs are my favorite, freshly fried. They seem to be impossible to get except from a fair or something, or made myself.
In the south we call shopping trolleys "buggies" or "carts" Takis are just rolled up,fried corn tortillas with flaming hot spices and food dye. They just came out with a flavor that has no heat. It's called Buckin' Ranch. They are ranch flavored.
The huge bags of vegetables are for families
For the record they are in one of the most expensive States for groceries. You have to remember Walmart is not a grocery store it's more of a One-Stop shop have it all kind of store so if you want cheaper prices on groceries then you should go to a grocery store and the prices will be much cheaper probably more kin to what you're used to paying in the UK. Don't worry a lot of Americans make this mistake too they automatically think Walmart is the cheapest because all their prices are supposedly rollback prices and that's how Walmart sucks the average American consumer in and the average American consumer doesn't have the common sense to compare Walmart food prices to an actual grocery store. Also we do have a lidil here in the US and the prices you were talking about in the UK are the same prices here in the US and you also have to keep in mind that price is very extremely depending on the region you're in for example you might go to California and a gallon of milk might cost you $4 to $6 then you go somewhere like Tennessee and it might only cost you two or three dollars. So it really depends on the cost of living in the state / region you're in therefore will determine the prices of the goods in the store. For example in Tennessee if the minimum wage is around $10 then obviously the cost of living like groceries are going to be cheaper in that state or where you if you go to California and the minimum wage is 15 to $20 an hour then obviously groceries are going to be more expensive there's a lot of things people from other countries don't consider when coming to the US.
Adam Couser, Tofurkey is - plant based turkey made with tofu with turkey flavoring
*vegetarian flavoring to simulate turkey flavor. It doesn't get any flavoring from actual turkeys.
@@greeneyedlady5580 Yes that is right
Sweet Corn is the fresh corn picked in late July early August. It is out for a few weeks maybe and hard to get. Aficionados of Sweet Corn are in the store early opening up the husks and checking if it is real Sweet Corn and that there are no insects etc... FANS OF THIS CORN WILL TURN UP THEIR NOSES AT FROZEN CORN WITH "SWEET" ON THE LABEL. It is a summer ritual. For BBQ and family get togethers/reunions. Sweet Peas are Lathyrus Odoratus. Not just any pea.
Adam, you need to get yourself to Texas man! Two things you haven't had before are staples in TexMex- avocado (for yummy guacamole) and refried beans! I know you love good food, TexMex is something else. Don't get me wrong I ❤ a good BBQ but I equally ❤ me some TexMex!!!!
Nah Florida is bad enough lol
They were in SoCal (Southern California). Probably Anaheim (Disneyland is in Anaheim). Disney World In Orlando is 2,500 miles away. I was just at home for Thanksgiving, in Anaheim. You can see the fireworks at Disneyland every night. I miss that.
I feel sorry for that poor kid being raised by those two vegans. Hopefully he won’t snap one day from eating all of that fake meat and soy!😂
he is very happy and healthy, so maybe calm thyself
Obviously he's more level headed than the likes of you. Name me 5 vegans who committed mass shootings or terrorist attacks that resulted in mass casualties.
I'll wait
@@Marcel_Audubonno that’s terrible there is nothing wrong with being vegan or vegetarian alr whateve you wanna be but don’t make your kids do that because you have a superiority complex and don’t eat animal products
When looking at the price of any food item at Wal Mart, there is a white part that shows the price of the item, and a red part that show the price per weight unit. Some are priced by the pound, and others are price by the ounce. Produce and fresh meats are listed by the pound. Almost everything else is listed by the ounce. Conversion from ounces from grams is 1ounce is 28 grams. There are 16 ounces in a pound. 16X28=448. So there is 448 grams in a lb. So, 2 lbs equals 896 grams, or rather .9 kilogram if rounded. Conversion from kg to lbs is easy enough. You take 1000 grams (1kg) and divide it by 28, and you get the number of ounces it converts to, which is 35.7 ounces when rounded. If you divide that by 16, then you get the number of pounds it weighs, which is 2.23 lbs. It sounds complicated, but it that is only because for some odd reason, America decided to use a weight system that was created by Britain, that Britain later on decided not to use for some reason or other. It was originally called The British Imperial System... I mean c'mon... XD
organic does not always mean healthy ( in my opinion)
Less of an opinion, more of a fact.
@@Sin_Alder thanks
Just means more expensive!
@@billmarshall5040 true!
17:05 There's probably a reason that I don't know about why they're marketed as "Sweet Peas" but we just call them peas. Sometimes we have to say "sweet corn" to differentiate it from field corn, which humans don't really want to eat.
I love Orlando even though heat stroke issues run in my family. As a kid, we would vacation at a minor time share we had in Orlando. Disney is good, but if you can go to Universal Studios, the tickets are cheaper then Disney and if you want to go multiple times, the year-long membership is cheaper than a week worth of tickets. It has the different harry Potter exhibits and rides and most of the rides in the 2 parks are more designed for older teens and adults while most of Disney rides are designed for kid or teens instead of adults. Have fun whatever you do and wherever you go. If you do go to Disney, make sure to ride space mountain and the haunted hotel both great classic rides at disney.
I'm so happy my parents weren't vegans. I would've missed out on a lot of good food growing up.
i gave you the like and subscribe when you made the mushroom "much room" joke. enjoying a nice little binge of your videos. - from usa
south america alabama area WE CALL THEM BUGGIES LOL ..
We have Lidl and Aldi in the US as well. They are budget grocery shops in the USA. Walmart is the big box store.
Not just no, but hell no to the metric system
actually Prez Ford initiated the change to metric i think in 1974 and it was probably going well but Prez Reagan stopped it in 1983 costing more money
I much prefer my trusty freedom units. They've served me well.
Plus, if it's anything like soccer, we'll adopt it, then the British will change it AGAIN, then bitch at us AGAIN for not changing AGAIN.
I'd much rather stick to my pounds, feet, yards, miles, and whatnot.
Roll Tide.
Since you are going to Orlando you should make a quick day trip to Busch Gardens Howl-O-Scream since you will be there in October. Lots of fun. Also you should try both the restaurants O'charleys and Carrabbas. They are so good.❤
If you're going to Orlando, you should check out Dona Julia in Lakeland. It's a combination of southern and Mexican foods.
The ability to cold freight really helps with the massive amount of options. Yes the honey is flavor in the bread for the corn dog
Growing up in California (USA) we had an avocado tree and a lemon tree. I'd go outside and pick an avocado and a lemon. You just can't get the same taste from the stuff in the grocery stores. These were naturally ripened and true power snacks. Miss those trees.
Corn dog= a hot dog dipped in corn bread batter...so the one labeled with "honey" means it has a sweet corn bread coating. Amazingly yummy. Refried beans are pinto beans that have been cooked, then squashed into a paste and then fried (which is why authentic ones have lard). They remain a soft but tasty paste. Silk is fake milk, no cows involved. lol Sorry but when they show me the udders on an almond, I might consider trying the stuff, lol
If an American says trolley they are most likely talking about the street train cars for passengers in cities like san diego or San Francisco.
Walmart's app on your phone has a map and a function to find whatever you want as well as a scanner to tell the price.
You are heading for Orlando at a good time of year.
Tips, because I've seen tragedy at closing time in the theme parks.
1. No matter the weather, get some high elf sunscreen. Too many of your people walk out looking fried. I used to carry a big can of spray sunscreen, every time I heard the accent, I would casually wander closer and ask if they had sunblock on. My favorite answer was "But it's February, and there are some clouds." The only answer to that is "You are translucent, you will burn." If they agreed, I would line them up and spray them.
2. Tuesday and Thursday are the least crowded.
3. Store brands are generally cheaper.
4. Good idea to Google "Theme Park strategy"
omg the great value brand fries, I have like 12lbs of the seasoned, 5lbs of the crinkle cut and one last serving of the wedges in my freezer right now.
Sadly the waffle cut actually aren't that great, they never cook all the way through and I just don't like mushy fries.
I WANT EM CRISPY!!
The reason they are spending more for let’s say the boxed grapes is because they are prepackaged if they would have bought just a vine of grapes they would be less expensive
The fruit in that plastic “box” was blueberries not grapes. They got a bunch of grapes “on the vine” in the plastic bags a few minutes after getting the blueberries.
@@kimcat3760 Can you understand it don’t matter what fruit it is is it just cost more when it is prepackaged or any other food it just cost more…do I have to break it down for you or do you need charts? Go to a grocery store once in awhlile stop telling people that are really curios about America bull

Hi Adam, This Family (Family Freedom) is one I watch a good deal. They spent around a Month in Orlando Florida. Rented flats to stay in and of course had a working kitchen and needed groceries. They are Vegan. Tofurky is Tofu flavoured like Turkey.
Don't worry Adam. Marmite is rather expensive in the US since it's imported from the UK. So either they won't find it at all. Or it will be hideously expensive hehehe.
Texas toast is thick sliced white bread. I'd estimate around double a normal slice of bread.
Don't worry about Jo-Jo Just watch one of their Xmas videos and you'll see how much Pokemon and Leggo he has. By the way the Lad is a very tall 12 year old here.
Refried Beans is a Mexican dish. you cook beans in water and a bit of salt. when they are tender you mash or blend them and fry them in a bit of oil or Lard (Pork Fat). Yum!
Vegans don't drink cow's milk. Silk is a brand name. The have Soy, Oat, Hemp milks and many more.
Take Care my friend, Jim Mexico
They are forgetting that those prices do not include tax. They will be surprised at checkout😅
I'm sorry, anyone who buys dairy free ice CREAM is not buying ice CREAM. They are buying a dessert.
That corn dog has honey in the batter coating. There is also a Jimmy Dean brand breakfast version where it's a pancake wrapped around a sausage link.
I'm in Louisiana and we call them buggies. Oh and do not get the walmart brand refried beans. Get name brand
