      Honestly, I'm not _overly_ surprised in this case. He said this was owned by Walmart, right? Walmart's store brand States side is pretty good, although not the best I've had (a couple purely grocery store store brands have outdone it). Mind you, Walmart's prices beat those, so there is that.

      @@LydiaTarine12 Also worth noting Asda Smart Price is a psychological thing. The reason everything is all white is because it looks cheap, which is perfectly intentional. It's to make people feel shame for buying such items and mark themselves up to a better brand, even if the food is pretty much the same (sometimes is exactly the same). Nobody wants to look cheap and if you can afford not to, most don't.

  • @porchlights
    @porchlights 6 лет назад +35

    Asda does do Smart Price fresh fruit and veg! They just rebranded it as Farm Stores (which is what Smart Price was originally called back in the 90's), they also do some value fresh meat under the same label.

      Ooh, that's an interesting take, a week on but with a hard, tight budget instead of bothering with the weigh-in and calories and such. If you don't mind me sounding a bit culturally tone-deaf, kind of a 'week on food stamps' kind of thing to show how hard it might really be.

    This reminds me of the days when we had two kids to feed, and were on the bones of our arses. We spent less, and still had fruit and veg. You can get things like tinned tomatoes, chickpeas, carrots etc etc for the same or less than a bag of oven chips and nuggets. I'm enjoying watching this, but it is possible to eat cheap and healthy. It's a pain in the arse, and you have to plan carefully, but it is possible.

    You should do the complete opposite and do a week on essential Waitrose or something in the more expensive range like that, then you could see if you think the price difference is worth it

    13p...that is like 30 cents CAD at most. That is like finding knock off Alpghaghetty for 30 cents. The dollar store sells it fkr 1 25. The store brand is 99cents. Why do we suck?
