I'm in Texas and a 5 lb bag of conventional russet potatoes from Walmart is almost $8, so I think it's pretty normal. I go to whole foods to get the organic potatoes, bc it's actually less expensive. Groceries have exploded in price here, and it is absolutely NOT "socialism." It is corporate greed and price gouging. So - capitalism.
@as-guardianangel9360 It just dawned on me. It's easy to transport stuff across water. Nothing separating Greenland from Denmark except a bit of water. On the other hand, Canada is separated by ... well... lots more Canada!🫠
In Germany: 1kg of potatoes : 77ct 1Liter Milk: 1,25€ Butter: 2,30€ Meat varies between 5 and 20€ per kilo Oreos: around 2€ Apples: 1€ per kilo Chips: 99ct Whip cream: 99ct Eggs: for 6 around 1,40€
Being an Indian, almost every thing she bought is about 8-10 times more expensive than it is in India........... especially the Potatoes, she bought it for $6.6 and here in India, we get it just for ₹30 (or $0.36)...........(in hindi I wanna say लूट मची है बहुत।)

The potatoes and meat are a little higher than what I pay in the USoA (State of Virginia) but otherwise, comparable. Thank you so much for sharing your culture. I’ve learned more about your country from you than I have any where else.
Only the contiguous 48 get lower prices. Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, USVI, American Samoa, Guam and the Mariana Islands are either comparable to those prices or way higher. Here, PR, an island-raised piece of pork goes for 3x the price of the USA contiguous 48 "imported" one.
Actually, I think the prices are cheaper. I lived in Columbia MD, Bethesda MD (you can literally cross the street and be in DC,) and Charlotte NC. Yes the meat was more expensive but they are doing a holiday dinner. The type the bought would be much more expensive to find in those cities. If you wanted to substitute them for with more American style products like two raw turkeys and a brisket that size you would be paying the same or more because of the brisket. The produce was more affordable in some cases or the same. I just bought a bag of Yukon potatoes for the same price yesterday. The apples were cheaper than mine. So were the chips. The butter $8 for a lbs for land of lakes and eggs as well. The milk was only slightly more expensive because of the size but again the dairy was treated differently. In most of the 48 you are insensitive to buy in bulk to save at places like Costco or look for sales but that also comes with its own set of additional costs like cold food storage plus electricity.
Those food prices are crazy - but transportation costs from Denmark must account for much of that! I love these glimpses of life in Greenland, please keep it up!
1.5 kg potatoes for more than 6$ is affordable for you? In Germany 1.5 kg potatoes cost about 1.99 - 3.29€ in a normal supermarket. Here you get 3 kg or even more for that price.
@A. Simon I'm from Canada and we pay about thay for potatoes. Only the meat seemed expensive from an urban canadian perspective. Our northern prices are really insane.
When I was in Iceland I found most of the food prices pretty similar to what I would pay in Chicago. We did not go out to eat, because those prices were very expensive.
Cute couple. Man, I fly over Greenland on several flights to Istanbul from San Francisco en route to Odessa. I would love to visit Nuuk too with my wife
I'm in San Francisco Bay Area California USA and that's about the same cost. You and your husband are adorable 🥰 thanks for sharing your lifestyle with us! Happy Holidays ☃️🌠🎄🎁
@@EVL-xj5vc exactly, things tend to be more expensive in developed countries, but salaries are way higher than they are in developing countries so, they can afford it and then some
@@MegaGun2000ts not just being about developed though, its probably because most of their stuff is imported and i imagine transportation to greenland may even be more expensive as there is not many people living in there
That seems so expensive to me :O I live in the UK and I would say everything there was double what it would be here. Which I am surprised at, as the UK is known as being extremely expensive! Loving the videos :)
@@robertzielinski2475Nordic countries? You know they are very different right? For example Sweden and Finland are cheaper than the uk most of the time but Norway, Denmark and Iceland are more expensive
Going by all the comments from around the world saying that the prices are similar in their countries, I'm thinking that we must be way poorer in the UK than we realise! I that SUPER expensive! 🤯🇬🇧
@@mongulkhanaxe6639, there are no apples at nofrills, freshco or foodbasics cheaper than 1.99/lb these days, and 8 apples for 3.9CAD (2.8 USD), is less than $1/lb if it's 4lbs or around $1.3/lb if it's 3lbs. AND we grow tons of apples in Ontario while they import 95% of their produce from Denmark. How crazy is that? Potatoes though are waaaaay more expensive in Greenland.
they don't have grocery stores ceos using 'inflation' as an excuse to raise prices en masse way beyond what they should just to line their own pockets. it's actually so fucking bad.
As an Iraqi, those are really expensive, like for 177 US dollar you can buy way too much things than what you bought, especially when it comee to vegetables and fruits.
I live in the Pacific Northwest of the USA. Your meat prices are higher ($4-5 USD or $27-32 DKK) but everything else is the same or cheaper. I went to visit my Niece in New York City, & she took me to the store at Grand Central Station. She told me that her big Sister, who still lives in South Florida, almost fainted at the high prices. I walked through the whole store & the only item that was higher in price than what I paid for it was Salmon. Salmon is the cheapest fish you can buy in the Pacific Northwest. Halibut is the most expensive... something like $26 USD/pound ($178.19 DKK/ 454kg).
Very nice to follow you. Greenland, for some reason, is not something we have learned about in Swedish school. You provide nice, informative information. It's nice with your short information, but I would like to see 30 minutes with more facts. You are absolutely capable of that, and it would be nice to listen. 🥰
The prices are quite the same like here in Austria now (exsept the potatoes). But some weeks ago the groceries cost way much less. The prices were climbing very fast since summer here.
I just started watching your channel and i love the idea of showing people another peice of the world. I currently live in mexico and i am born in US.. its pretty cool to know how it is to live in other countries. Keep up the great work.. takuss
Shop at Aldi in NC and you’ll pay way less than Greenland or what others have said about NC. 10 pounds of potatoes $4. Butter $2.60. Chicken $.99 lb. Pork roast $2. Ham $1.50 lb. Dozen eggs $1.65. Nothing is cheap anymore but shopping around is necessary. Thanks for your videos. Have enjoyed!
Living in Virginia in the States. I shop at Aldi for many things, where eggs, butter and potatoes, especially potatoes, are cheaper. Walmart is a second choice, where they don’t run sales because they advertise that they have the cheapest prices without sales, and they often do. Your meat sounds very expensive.
In Brazil, groceries are way more cheaper. Like the same amount of potatoes would cost max a dollar, a duck 5 dollars per kilo, and obviously because of the weather we have access to a variety of meat, fruits and vegetables. We have many different types of bananas and corn and potatoes etc. I am fond of your videos and I feel like planning a cruise from Toronto to Island and Greenland, thanks to you. Your family is amazing!! Life is amazing🙃
Im American and the prices are similar in my region. Depending on where they live, some Americans are paying more, some are paying less. It depends. But it varies.
That's one of the reasons I love where I live! Fresh produce. I grow green beans, peas, corn, dragon fruit and herbs. We share with our neighbors and look forward to tomatoes, peaches, and citrus.
Pretty much the same. I am in the northeastern states (Maine) I buy my eggs local and pay 3.00 for 12. Potatoes are much less here but Maine is also a potato growing state. Duck and chicken is pretty inexpensive. Beef is astonishingly high right now. Pork is cheap but I don’t eat pork. This time of year, I am still buying from the farmers market and we have an Amish family who sells pickles, jams, bread and fresh churned butter. I feel blessed to have access to farm fresh foods. That said, it’s cold, quiet and everything closes early. ;) I wouldn’t trade it.
It seems like a lot of your groceries cost the same as here. I would love to live in Greenland. It is gorgeous and I absolutely love the cold weather! You have a beautiful family!
Those prices are about what hours were here in the US in Washington state a couple of years ago but since our inflation has shot up in the last couple of years, things are a lot more. So those prices seem fairly inexpensive to us now. ☺️
Very interesting! I live in Mexico and, of course, our produce is very fresh and inexpensive. $1.50/kg for locally grown raspberries. However, potato chips cost a lot!
It sounds more expensive than Chicago’s Jewel grocery stores. And Jewels is pretty expensive to Chicago’s standard. For the amount of Oreos packaged in such small quantities is pretty expensive. We can get 3 or 4 row tray of Oreo cookies that price and a gallon of whole milk the price that Greenland pays.
It's fascinating how I recognize many products (brands like Arla and Taffel) by their looks. Because many of the brands in Denmark (from where the goods are transported to Greenland) export their stuff to other Nordic countries (like here, Finland). Also, the prices are rather close to what we have here (in €uros, which is comparable to US$) but potatoes and meat are cheaper.
Yeah that's a much better depiction of the grocery shopping. Because before it made it seem like it cost like $75 to get a steak. It was crazy. But this is much more logical and yeah similar to what I pay here in the United States. So beautiful video
Some things are way cheaper than the USA, other things are astronomically more expensive, though the final price seemed mostly on par, just slightly higher than I'm used to. Kind of like going to the organic store/co-op.
I’m shocked at how similar the prices are. Only difference is here in the USA or NY specifically we have a spectrum of each item you may want. Some are cheaper and some are really expensive and everything in between.
It's quite a bit more expensive compared to here in England, for example; 1.5 kgs of potatoes is about $1.90. One whole duck is about $11.50. Free range eggs about the same. 1kg joint of beef is $14. Oreos are $1.50. And prices have gone up a lot here due to the cost of living crisis. Perhaps it is because of import fees?
Some of that was cheaper than where I'm from. And, here where I am in the Midwest, the farms that produce most of our food are less than 50 miles away.
Eggs in Greenland are cheaper than in large parts of mainland Europe. Crazy. Potatoes in Central Europe are dollar a kilo. And they come in varieties. Small firm ones for salads. Medium sized ones that becomes soft for mashed potatoes. Big ones for fries. Et cetera.
Yeah some things like meat seemed slightly pricier than I thought they would be but most prices seem similar to grocery prices in California right now. Prices keep going up and the cost of living is insane here
The prices are not too different from us in Washington state, USA. Maybe the meat is a bit higher but other stuff is pretty comparable. I have family in Norway and they are way more expensive there. Thanks for sharing your culture.
Here northern virginia a dozen egg is 5.99-9.99USD. Gallon Milk 2.99-3.25, butter 4.99-7USD. I shop at food lion, harris teeter, giant, Costco and BJ’s the most. I sometimes go to lidl which is cheaper but not the best quality.
Nope! Groceries in Australia are expensive, but since we can grow almost anything in our gardens very successfully, it’s a good way to save. I grow pears, two types of plumbs, apricots, nectarines and fejoias too. I also grow rhubarb and kiwi fruits and many herbs. Might do potatoes this year too we will see.
Actually, the prices are more expensive in alaska, which is really crazy if you think about it, especially with all the support that a receipts from mainland america.
Here in The Netherlands the prices are much cheaper. But most of those groceries are coming from far away to Greenland. The transport costs make up the expensive cost.
Potato’s were expensive, but so are small bags here. Otherwise super comparable to what it would cost in Ontario, Canada where I live, some stuff was even cheaper assuming this is converted to US dollars.
In Copenhagen I’m paying more or less the same. In italy everything was a little bit cheaper few years ago, but now the prices are going up over there as well
Potatoes 6 bucks for that tiny pack! Omg you guys need a solid winter proof agricultural green house just for your city possibly an indoor farmers market for all local producers! It might cost a bit but the kids won’t have to suffer down the line
Pretty much the same ! Just except for potatoes and milk. But eggs, apples, meat…- we have pretty much the same in Paris and overall France. But I guess that prices in Germany, Italy, etc are cheaper
I live in a suburb of Washington DC, and all the prices were pretty much exactly the same as here. Except the apples, which were about a third of the price I’d pay here, and the duck and beef which were about 2/3 of what I’d pay here.
I'm not sure about the duck, but the prices are similar here in New Jersey and New York. I've never seen duck in my local markets, so I can't speak to that. I love your videos!
That’s cheaper that what we pay here in South-central Alaska (basically Anchorage area). Just to give you an idea on the difference in cost: one bag of potato chips would be $7 or $8
Wow so adorable!!! I want to live in Greenland you'll got a lot for $180. Your eggs, butter and dairy was so inexpensive. 15 eggs for $3.50!!! Yes that is amazing
I know a lot of Indigenous and very rural communities have super expensive groceries but I can’t imagine what the cost of living crisis and Covid have done to the prices
Those potatoes were wicked expensive!

Greenland needs to talk to Canada about reducing food costs in the north.
Most food is imported from Denmark

Canada can’t even make groceries cheaper for our northern territories. I doubt we could do anything to make it cheaper in Greenland.
These prices are fairly decent, Canada fails to provide reasonable prices for their own citizen living in Nunavut or any other northen territory
And what does Canada have to with food prices in another country? If any country should have to regulate it's Denmark.
Some of your items, like eggs, butter and milk, were cheaper than what we pay in North Carolina in the US. I was surprised!
Really? Do you shop exclusively at Whole Foods or something? These prices would be considered extremely expensive in Chicago.
And yet more expensive than netherlands after the recent price hikes

Oreos are $1.50. And prices have gone up a lot here due to the cost of living crisis. Perhaps it is because of import fees?
Same prices here in Delaware USA! 8 apples $2.80 in NUUK beats $3.99 in Dover at Aldi
Some of that was cheaper than where I'm from. And, here where I am in the Midwest, the farms that produce most of our food are less than 50 miles away.
Eggs in Greenland are cheaper than in large parts of mainland Europe. Crazy.
Potatoes in Central Europe are dollar a kilo. And they come in varieties. Small firm ones for salads. Medium sized ones that becomes soft for mashed potatoes. Big ones for fries. Et cetera.
Let’s not forget about the size of these goodies,it’s known that in Canada and US everything is much bigger,like butter,cream etc
Yeah some things like meat seemed slightly pricier than I thought they would be but most prices seem similar to grocery prices in California right now. Prices keep going up and the cost of living is insane here
Love your videos💚💚💚 Greenland is amazing💚 sending love all the way from bohol ❤️❤️❤️
Gosh, at those prices I'll hever moan about the prices here in the UK again. Our prices are much, much lower!
Yes aren’t they? British prices are extremely low in comparison with many other so-called developed countries.
yes, I would say the prices are pretty comparable to the Bay Area, Ca. love the series. thank you.
The prices are not too different from us in Washington state, USA. Maybe the meat is a bit higher but other stuff is pretty comparable. I have family in Norway and they are way more expensive there. Thanks for sharing your culture.
You should check Yerevan Armenia ))) 200 USD is enough for a month with fresh meat, veggies, and amazing tasty fruits
Here northern virginia a dozen egg is 5.99-9.99USD. Gallon Milk 2.99-3.25, butter 4.99-7USD. I shop at food lion, harris teeter, giant, Costco and BJ’s the most. I sometimes go to lidl which is cheaper but not the best quality.
Nope! Groceries in Australia are expensive, but since we can grow almost anything in our gardens very successfully, it’s a good way to save. I grow pears, two types of plumbs, apricots, nectarines and fejoias too. I also grow rhubarb and kiwi fruits and many herbs. Might do potatoes this year too we will see.
Actually, the prices are more expensive in alaska, which is really crazy if you think about it, especially with all the support that a receipts from mainland america.
You are right girl. The prices are the same all over the world but in Spain😊
In many parts of the US and perhaps even Canada, Greenland has comparable if not slightly lower costs. That’s honestly mind boggling
It's about the same here in Central upstate new york USA. Love your videos ❤❤❤
Here in The Netherlands the prices are much cheaper. But most of those groceries are coming from far away to Greenland. The transport costs make up the expensive cost.
We get a massive bag of potatoes in the uk for £1.50 so $2.00 roughly…😅I can’t believe how expensive potatoes are lol
In Romania🇷🇴:
1kg pitatoes: 0,6€
1 litter milk: 1-1,2€
15 eggs: 2€
Butter: 2€
1kg apples: 1-1,2€
Beef: 3-5€
Oreo: 1,3€
1 pack of chips: 1,7-2€
Potato’s were expensive, but so are small bags here. Otherwise super comparable to what it would cost in Ontario, Canada where I live, some stuff was even cheaper assuming this is converted to US dollars.
In Copenhagen I’m paying more or less the same. In italy everything was a little bit cheaper few years ago, but now the prices are going up over there as well
you make me wanting a vacation in Greenland only by watching all your videos 👍
Potatoes 6 bucks for that tiny pack! Omg you guys need a solid winter proof agricultural green house just for your city possibly an indoor farmers market for all local producers! It might cost a bit but the kids won’t have to suffer down the line
This is crazy expensive! As a spanish person, I would FAINT if I see those prices in my supermarket 😂
As cheap or cheaper than the Bay area in California. I agree that your prices are surprisingly in line with most places
Some things in Greenland are cheaper than in Canada. Example: Eggs for 15 eggs we are paying around 5 USA dollars (7 Canadian dollars)
thanks for sharing, I am enjoying Greenland
I think you’re right - Those prices are quite similar to what we pay in Australia
Your husband is very handsome. Beautiful family
Pretty much the same ! Just except for potatoes and milk. But eggs, apples, meat…- we have pretty much the same in Paris and overall France. But I guess that prices in Germany, Italy, etc are cheaper
I am Nigerian and Arla is one of our biggest dairy companies. They make Dano milk, which comes from the name Danmark i guess.
I’d be interested to see some Greenlandic restaurants!
That’s like $4.40 per kilo dude. Wicked expensive. In my area it’s about $1.72 per kilo for potatoes. Usually never exceeds two bucks a kilo
I live in a suburb of Washington DC, and all the prices were pretty much exactly the same as here. Except the apples, which were about a third of the price I’d pay here, and the duck and beef which were about 2/3 of what I’d pay here.
I'm not sure about the duck, but the prices are similar here in New Jersey and New York. I've never seen duck in my local markets, so I can't speak to that. I love your videos!
That’s cheaper that what we pay here in South-central Alaska (basically Anchorage area). Just to give you an idea on the difference in cost: one bag of potato chips would be $7 or $8
Wow so adorable!!! I want to live in Greenland you'll got a lot for $180. Your eggs, butter and dairy was so inexpensive. 15 eggs for $3.50!!! Yes that is amazing
Where are you???
I know a lot of Indigenous and very rural communities have super expensive groceries but I can’t imagine what the cost of living crisis and Covid have done to the prices
I thought that in the states it was expensive but in Greenland 😮😮😮😮blessings always 🙏
