    Good job on this video man … I try to avoid USA sourced food products as they have little consumer protection against toxic additives, pesticides, hormone/antibiotic injected animals, dead soil farmland, etc, etc. I try to buy as much local seasonal food in Cambodia and am amazed at how much value there it here if you shop smart. My wife came home last week with a kilo of beef ribs she got for less than $2 bucks! 😮

      Thanks alot. I actually gave up cooking my own food here, the western ingredients are too expensive and I didn't have much success trying to recreate the Khmer food that I've tried.

    Apples and grapes aren't from tropical regions like Cambodia, try mango, lemons etc

    Prices are always going to be way cheaper at the outdoor markets

    The supermarkets in Siem Reap are quite expensive. They pretty much exclusively cater to foreigners and better off Khmer. It makes sense that imported goods are more expensive. In addition, things that can be purchased locally like seafood, meat and veggies cost 20-30% more at supermarkets compared to local wet markets. Most of what you buy in the supermarket is wrapped in plastic which I find repulsive.

    That comparisons were not quite hit the point. In Cambodia , they eat different type of banana. The local banana is dirt cheap compared to the imported banana from Central America and South America.. To eat out, I paid for a noodle soup for less than $2.00 in Cambodia. Noodle soup in Los Angeles, California cost me $20.00 and I have to leave some tip too. I went to Angkor Market two months ago, and I paid for some durian cookie cost me $1.00 more than the same item selling at Orussey Market. Angkor Market is a fancy place, and they have very good air condition and that why it is more there.

      I am even cheaper than you.For $2, I buy a chicken breast and veggies from the market, make curry that's my dinner for 2 days and I still have change left over for a can of Anchor beer.

      Those short bananas are barely edible - very inferior imho

    are you going to a premium market for expats?

    • @mattmck360
      @mattmck360  2 дня назад

      In my experience, prices don't fluctuate much between the different supermarkets. You can save money on meat and vegetables by going to one of the wet markets.

    I am astonished that Americans were so concerned about their prices that they literally lost their minds. My wife loves chicken feet. Crumbed and air fried. Each to their own right? Eating in Cambodia is dirt cheap and the variety is endless. Some expats cook at home, but not many, and not often. Depends on the familial circumstances.

      Well its the same as pig trotters and as I always say, I prefer parts of the animal a little bit higher up off the ground.

    Lipton tea is awful. Not sure how that company stays in business with such a carp product

    Cambodia income and the costs of living way off track. Meaning it was very expensive. All Southeast Asia is not cheap 😂😂😂

    No one buys fruit from a supermarket wrapped in plastic. It's all way cheaper here in Cambodia.
    Peanut butter and jelly, WTF? They have food here.
    How about compare real life. Most people never cook at home because you can get a good restaurant meal for $5 if you're being fancy.

      FYI - I made 2x videos on the cost of eating at restaurants here. This video is about the cost of shopping at the supermarket.

      @mattmck360 yes I understand that. Maybe next a take on lifestyle difference as I'm sure Americans aren't dining out at markets and on the streets all year round.
      Comparing a third world country that depends on highly processed everything to Cambodia just isn't fair.😉
      Just my feedback, not hear to offend.
