It´s absolutely safe to drink tap-water in Germany and northern Europe. And its true, its more regulated than bottled water.
* tap
thx
Thx for this Joke. The nitrate concentration is getting higher and higher.
Farmers are dumping more and more manure into the groundwater.
@@Capt.-Nemo still better currently in most areas than bottled water
@@xSoulhunterDKx That's true, but for how long. Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg sell their manure to German farmers.
the fun thing is the soda is made from the same tap water he has a soda steam there
Taxes on cigarettes are high, but taxes on loose tobacco are not as high. That's why some people buy the tobacco and cigarette paper separately and roll it themselves.
20 cigarettes cost around 7€ while the tobacco needed for 20 costs around 2,5€.
There is no need to bring Indian food when going to Germany. Indian grocery stores are available in every major city. Despite what RUclips videos may lead you to believe, there are actually many vegetarians here as well. Indian food may be more costly in Germany than in India, but you can still find authentic choices. It’s a little challenging to find Indian clothes (Salwar Kameez) for purchase here. In various UK cities like Southall, Wembley, and Leicester, there are sizable Indian communities, where you can readily find Indian clothing and gold. However, since Brexit, it has become just as challenging, if not more so, to get goods from these communities compared to getting them directly from India. It is extremely difficult to obtain Ayurvedic medicine in Germany because of strict import regulations on medicinal drugs. Again, it was easy to get them before Brexit.
In Germany, the laws are extremely strict when it comes to tap water. Tap water is the most strictly controlled food in Germany. Food in general is very, very strictly regulated and we Germans get really angry when someone doesn't follow rules like hygiene regulations, shelf life regulations or temperature regulations.
What was not specified in the video is that the empty bottles were sorted for recycling, we sort the garbage in Europe for those who do it
Honestly, if I, as a german, would have a foreign guest/friend or relative visiting me, I'd be totally embarressed if this person would give me the ingredients for cooking or even cook him-/herself. It would undermine my role and honor as a host. Honor demands, and even manners demand, I treat my guest always the best. So I essentially let them taste what I have grown up with. The first meal as a host is a service of gratitude to your friends, relatives and guests.
I agree that you should cook first as the host but if the guest is like "hey, I really wanne make this cool dish for you tomorrow, what do you think?" I'd probably say yes, they get to share their culture too and everyone is happy.
why would you bring big amounts of "your" food to another country? isn't one of the reason why we travel, to discover that culture, which also means trying the food?
tap water is one of the best controled food items in germany
That and raw minced pork for your breakfast enjoyment. ^-^ Mettbrötchen for the win.
But I heard you should only drink the cold tap water because the warm tap water has more bacteria and is bad for the body
@@JaniceHope thats also pretty well controled ;)
Thx for this Joke. The nitrate concentration is getting higher and higher.
The Farmers are dumping more and more manure into the groundwater.
@@Capt.-Nemo aha and it seems that is bad for your brain
Guys, love your channel, but please, dont bring any food from India. They'll take it at the airport and it will cost you a fine. Check the EU-regulations for import. :)
Not every food is illegsl to bring spices and csndy will be just fine dont bring anny meat 😅
Yeah, most Europeans do rely a lot more on public Wifi, though the prices for mobile data vary wildly between countries.
mobile data is expensive in germany .. but you have WIFI at pretty much every home, often at a café bigger trainstations etc
3:19 …admittedly, most MOBILE data passes are indeed at the VERY low end in comparison with other countries… if you need, say, something above 30 GByte a month, you’re hard-pressed to find a provider for it… hotels commonly offer free WiFi though.
I would say on Germany at least hotels offer free wifi like 99,9% of the time. It's very much expected.
In fact germans eat half the amount of meat as americans. Tons of vegetarian options.and it's not that politizised.
Funny thing - she won't be able to cross the German border with the food in her bag. Regulation does not allow to bring many of the food because of the danger of diseases for animals and plants. BTW that is not a German regulation, but a European regulation...
It’s only fresh food that is an issue usually do meat, eggs, dairy products, vegetables and fruits
I know some people who bring kilo's of herbs from foreign countries, to the Netherlands. That is dried of course.
You should definitely watch the movie "Raj against the machine". This documentary is about the band "Bloodywood", who are invited to the German festival Wacken. It's funny and also a nice story. And above all, it actually happened that way. I love this movie and the guys are so likeable.
4:50 Tap water in Germany is among the if not the most controlled beverage.
It's even more regulated that bottled water (for God knows what reason).
But yeah, it's absolutely perfectly safe to drink and in the extremely unlikely case that anything should be remotely wrong with the tap water you'll be notified immediately.
Many apartments in Germany have cooking exhausts, but we also keep windows open a while per day. They have regular checks of the tap water, so it's ptetty unusual to have a brief bacteria warning period more than once in a decade or so.
since two month we are allowed to smoke weed in public. so this might actually happen when you are here.
you are so lovely... i like to watch your videos.. and this one is soooo funny, because you understand the indian side and i the german.... :D thanks for it
Nice reaction, thumbs up.
But it would be nice if you included the link to the original video.
Truth be told, I like Indian food but isn't part of discovering new places and expieriencing new things that you also try new food for example? I am travelling a lot and love to get street food or just go to a restaurant in the middle of nowhere to have a taste of the countrys culture :)
Loose tobacco (for rolling or tamping) is taxed way lower than cigarettes. Presumably to make sure that poor people don't stop smoking and reduce overall tax revenue.
try the tap water, it's at least as safe as anything bottled you can buy.
In Russia we also can download practically any movie :)
I hardly ever use up my mobile data here, I rarely use WiFi either, only at home. I just use my phone for what's app and some quick researching or Google maps when I'm on the way. I rather live in the now, especially, when I'm a tourist, rather than in the internet.
Because of the water, in Gerolstein, People drink the same water that gets filled in bottles and is sold. Our water, is really good. Till now. Thx for your content
That's a mineral water brand in bottles in Germany I think right ?
Hey guys, I enjoyed to watch a couple of your videos.
I'm curious about India. India is an important country like Germany and I feel we know not ebough about eachother. You two provide a glimpse of the vibe of India and the way indians are thinking which is getting visible on your reaction to things that are different or remarkable about Germany and germans as pointed out in the videos you react to.
So this one is particular interesting.
Keep on with this! 🙋♂️ I hope you come to visit my country some day and have a great time here.
in Germany you can drink from the tab ;) we do it too
as long as they are legal downloads no problem... but here you sometimes get bad letters if you download illegal stuff (especially if its from disney and so on)
Fun fact about tap and bottled water here in germany. Some bottle water selling companies fill their bottles with tap water and enrich it with various nutritions ...
5:15 I really hate the RL guy, but he really did get the facts on tap water vs bottled water right… tap water regulations are so tight, it‘s perfect for baby food etc, which isn’t something you can say about water from plastic bottles… (don’t get me wrong, the regulations on bottled water are strict, too - but since we use tap water for cooking as well, the regulations for tap water are VERY strict indeed!)
tap water in Germany is proved even better than bottled water. And you have the choice of still, medium or sparkling water. Where else in the world do you have those choices???
2:21 you can - but you better not get caught, because of something called „Abmahnungen“. And believe me, copyright lawyers WILL catch you, because there’s an insane amount of „honeypotting“.
I only drink tap water, it is safe, tastes like normal water and actually costs nearly nothing.
A liter of water here costs less than a cent, 0.2 cents, that's so little that you couldn't pay for it.
500l of water is one euro.
In our household I think we use about 1000-1200l per month.
I think about 2-2,50€ but I am not sure, it will be somewhere in that area.
If we were cook like that, the fire alarms could go off and they are really loud.
The bottle is worth more than the water she wanted to sell.
We have an deposit on it, that's 25 cent,
you can get 125l for it.
I thought Indians didn’t eat cow but pork like Muslims?.
The smoking culture is quite high here. Many people just get the tobacco and paper and roll their own cigarettes.
In terms of quantity, it is cheaper than a box.
Many people have an Internet router at home and rarely use the Internet for outside.
I have 3 gigabytes and only need half of it.
Also, buses, trains and many cafes have Internet for customers.
It is not really needed even in big cities.
Rolling cigarettes in germany is cheaper, because tobacco is taxed differently than cigarettes.
Digitalisation in Germany (internet, PCs, paying with debit card etc) is... Well, it's more likely to win the lottery 5 times in a row than have a good and stable internet connection throughout all of Germany, let alone being able to pay with "plastic money" everywhere. I worked at a restaurant that accepts cash only. The invoice after your shift... Oh boy. We were paid in cash after each shift. So, always be prepared having to pay with cash. Some restaurants have websites (yes, only some) where you can look it up.
Bringing food to a German house might insult the hosts (besides most likely being illegal). It doesn't matter if you call it "essentials"; it's ok to cook for yourself, but in general: Do. Not. Do. That. Street food may not cost... Dunno... 200 Rupees, living costs (and loans) are higher than in India, but to not be willing to go out to eat... At all? Why the fuck bother coming here in the first place? How else are you supposed to learn about culture, when you don't go out?
Tab water... In my region it once turned blue-ish, so the officials, once they found out (didn't take long), made public announcements: you were not allowed to shower, to drink it without boiling it first until further notice. The matter was resolved the very same day.
Once a year a guy comes to our house and tests the water for legionella and other bacteria / viruses. When the amount of germs is too high, they can forbid everyone affected (the whole house or block) from showering, drinking the water until further notice. And that took them months.....
I think I am Indian inside. But I don’t bring essentials
2:23 You can download them, but it is illegal.
Sparkling water has a very long tradition in germany. it goes back thousands of years to natural springs, that had carbon dioxide in them. 90% of the Water i drink as a german is sparkling water
Wasser ist heilig.
2:56 the guy in the video puts the bread on the table because he is just… (here we go again, I have no way to phrase it without risking a lawsuit)
He is a bit of a Bernd?
@@JaniceHopeno. He’s just the wurst.
Some things show here are exaggerations, trying to make fun of german stereotypes so I would take them with a huge grain of salt and not entirely believe them. :)
Most people are having flat rates or at least 10GB per month for their mobiles (like me since I'm not using it much).
What a pity, who has only 2 GB of storage on their smartphone these days? I have 64 GB, for example.
date volume not storage there is no such thing as flatrate data volume with mobile phones at least its not the usuall thing (one of the great thing that capitalisem done for us is that we get betrayed by economy )
Its not the storage, its the internet Flatrate.
I actually have 4GB and only need to add once or twice a year when I stay at one place where there's no WLAN.
Do NOT bring food items from India into the EU! That is illegal and will get you into trouble at the customs check in the airport. Especially meat, dairy products and fresh vegetables are not allowed. And there is no need to bring food - we have plenty of it here.
Not only is the water from the tap super clean, but you can also swim in any river or lake without any problems. The environmental regulations here are very strict. So swallowing water from a lake or river while swimming doesn't make you sick either
i dont would sugest to swim in every lake or river and on every location but there are enough clean lakes
you really shouldn’t swim in rivers… the currents are too strong… especially on „Bundeswasserstraßen“ like Rhine, Main, Donau, Elbe, Weser and… the likes.
@@Roberternst72 you can swim in big rivers too they have sections where its possible but it can indeed be dangerous
7:10 Why would you attempt to bring Indian food? First of all, you probably will be stopped by customs due to the food import regulations on food quality… and secondly, we actually got Indian restaurants and takeaways and even some pizza places who are actually doing Italian and Indian stuff… and at least in major cities there are also Indian food stores… mind you, some of the normal, everyday supermarkets even have „international food“ shelves… The one closest to my workplace even has affordable ready-made (and pretty much fresh) Indian style dishes you simply have to microwave, like Chicken Tikka Masala, Tandoori Chicken and even some Vegan stuff.
I hope u don`t think that the dishes in the german super markets are the same like real indian food .By the way ,why one needs to bring the food of his home country when travelling ?
I think he lives in Bavaria. Where I live, we have a large muslim community, so we wouldn't offer pork without asking first. We also have a lot of great halal food, and even our salami pizza is usually made with poultry salami instead. Although you can also get sucuk (turkish sausage), which is superior anyway. It is made from beef though, I don't know if you guys eat that.
In Germany tubwater is much better than bottled water. You can drink it directly out of the tub.
aww.. Herrlicher Typo. ;) Tubwater ist Badewannenwasser. hihi :D
You know tap water might have a lot of regulations, and it is "safe" to drink, much better than in many other countries. But... I worked for a company that makes high end household water purification systems, and I ran lots of tests on the tap water of customers, and I can tell you, in many areas in Germany, and espcially in old houses or cheap installations, that stuff is really not good for you. Yes, safe, but not healthy either. About the same quality as low-end bottled water. Sometimes with elevated levels of nitrate far above WHO standards or heavy metals (especially on cheap armature). No need to panic either, but for the really health conscious... not great.
I still drink it when I am outside, but at home I filter my tap water
It is safe to drink tap-water every where in Germany but its not always tasty.
I live in Brandenburg/Berlin and tap-water here is really bad because of pollution and extreme agriculture.
This was shot in Berlin or near Berlin. There was a Class 484 train in the background.
The Meaning behind „Not downloading movis“ is that we have very small mobile data flats for a high price… expl 6Gb for 8€
Also often LTE or less
Also, you might end up in court and lose a lot of money.
When you cook something, hold back on the spiciness for Germans unless you want to see them spit fire.
its true that u can normaly drink tap water, but there are regions in germany where u should absolutely not drink water from tap or sometimes even in old houses with rusty pipes but thats just everywhere.
Hä??? Thumb down for that lie
@@atconnys8786 At least that's the case for now. In regions where flooding has occurred, it's advised to boil water before drinking ("Abkochanordnung").
@@to_loww Yes, but the first comment sounds, that the water in some regions is always bad and not because of the actual flooding in Bavaria
There's at least one region, where the water is radioactive by nature. There are several regions where there's a lot of nitrate, so parents are advised not to use it for babies. So it's not a lie.
Rolling is fun
