Look people in Costa Rica everything is fresh Cheese and bread is so good and fresh it taste so good Fruits are crazy good,yes the coffee is better Pura vida
Its just pasteurized milk. What keeps it fresh is the tetra pack packaging, it spoils after opened if not placed in the fridge. (Every tetra packed milk has an explanation of the process of pasteurization) Costa Rican here
We live in Alajuela city, and we buy 3 gallons of fresh raw milk every week from a dairy farmer at an organic market in San Jose. We also get butter from her. The milk stays fresh in our fridge all during the week as we consume it. It doesn't go bad quickly. We would never buy the boxed milk. YUK!
@@stevekollen1672 I said the prices were about the same as California. I know DFW priced are less than in California. Where would you rather drink that beer DFW or Costa Rica?
@@bidlymovies987 Either one. I have lived in CR for 23 years and I have friends in DFW from when I spent 5 years there. They both have their attractions. When I go to DFW, I go with my friends to Cedar Springs and the places in Oak Lawn. In, CR I go to the beach and to the volcanoes when I'm not working.
@@romyenglish Even when the quantity of bacteria is negligible, you don't usually drink milk for it's bacteria, not even for it's nutrients, just for it's flavor.
The eggs once they have been refrigerated you can’t put them back on the shelf again. Same in UK and Aussie. The guy from the supermarket was quite cute and interesting. Wasn’t sure what all the fuss about long life milk was about it has been around forever.
Is the produce organic? Is the milk homogenized? Is the cheese raw? Good to know there are free range eggs but are they grain fed? I'll avoid the bakery as gluten causes high cholesterol. Does the wine have sulfites? etc, etc. I'll find out maybe when I get there. Would be nice to know because going there partially to escape the standard American toxic diet. Cheers!
When an egg comes out of a chicken it has a natural antimicrobial film that protects it so it doesn't have to be refrigerated and will last about a month, however, the pasteurization process removes this film requiring the egg to be refrigerated.
Hi Lets Go! LOVE your channel! From your experience, are all eggs on the shelf or just the brown eggs? Just curious because Ive seen brown eggs out before but I dont think Ive ever seen white eggs that werent refrigerated. Sorry for the silly question but are they the same as brown eggs in the states? Thanks for your help!
Hi Sergey, We have seen white eggs on the shelf as well, although brown eggs a far more common from what we've seen. I believe they are the same as in the states, but I never really ate brown eggs in the States. They are definitely different than the white eggs that we're used to.
The "fresh" refrigerated eggs you buy in the U.S. can legally be up to 30 days old. The Costa Rican eggs are better than the typical store bought U.S. eggs.
The reason they can let eggs go unrefrigerated is that they don't wash the egg. The hen leaves a protective coating when she lays the egg. US producers wash it off. Ticos do not.
Depends which supermarket you pick, Luperón (the one in the vid) is pretty average, towards the cheaper side, Palí is definitely known for it's low prices.
Costa Rica tiene el mejor café del mundo, por ejemplo, Café Rey. Es tan bueno que desearía que lo exportaran a Canadá. En comparación, el mejor café Canadiense es basura. Les recomiendo probar Café Rey.
DO NOT BUY GROCERIES inside the malls because it is very expensive especially inside the Escazu mall. They are more expensive than those in the United States and as I noticed 30 cents more. This is because most of these products sold in malls are imported from abroad.
I don't think so, he is more like the manager of the place, because there are several Luperón supermarkets in the Guanacaste province. They are kind of like a Walmart but to a much smaller scale.
Americans don't think about the shape and look of fruit either - stores just THINK we do. I'd rather have cheap fruit, and I could care less what it looks like.
The white (american) guy has an ear-ring. Facepalm* 😩😆 The foods they go over are all over the caribbean, not just Costa Rica. Chilean wine though isn’t widely available in the caribbean but is very good wine.
you know, you can actually do that in many supermarkets in Costa Rica. You can take a coca cola or a doritos package, drink it or eat it, and then pay for it. It is really common. Costa Rican here!
7:12 "Costa Rica people aren't picky" "amrican's Worrie" yes I couldn't eat just any fruit without checking it first. Costa Rica people aren't picky

The point of that, is that some people won't buy a banana for example, just because it has a tiny brown dot, or a pineapple because it has a small bump.
Gross, cows breast milk? Like for baby cows? Are adults drinking that? What happens to their babies that don't get their milk? RUclips: Dairy is Scary!
The reason that cheese is expensive in CR is because there are few cows. It's just not the right environment for raising cows. nir Nor much better either. Butter is a funny color with less fat content. Eggs are not the same.either. Climate is not the best for fat content.
Are you kidding? I think their climate is similar to, say Louisiana climate? There are plenty of cows in Louisiana... AND eggs. Chickens eat worms, grubs, etc and cows eat grass. How is fat different?

Very cool. Lived in Costa Rica for four years. That country takes a part of your heart and keeps it forever. Pura vida!
I’m going later this year do you have any yips
Why'd you leave?
I say the same about Hawaii. And costa rica.
Spent a week in Costa Rica and was very impressed.
Gotta say despite the crazy traffic, costa rica is a beautiful country and I enjoy every visit!
Look people in Costa Rica everything is fresh
Cheese and bread is so good and fresh it taste so good
Fruits are crazy good,yes the coffee is better
Pura vida

Love this video.He is right

Thank you - good info and intro to food Costa Rican food culture. Looking forward to exploring this winter!
You should, pura vida!
Outstanding on video presentation, would like to have seen some video on food choices for a lunch meal!
Ha! I didn't know there would be so many difference. Very informative. Thank you.

Thanks TheVoiceCompilations! MORE COMING STAY TUNED
This was a great video! Sad there's no new content!
Nothing tricky about shopping for food in Costa Rica.
The stores are awesome.
Prices about the same as California.
Yep the fruit is awesome.
I saw a 12-pack of Imperial beer for $2 less in DFW than here in CR.

Will only use the long life milk. Even take it back to the kids in the states they love it so much.
The long life milk is soo good and rich!
My kids are the same way! They LOVE the long life milk
and all the good bacteria is dead.

miss my natilla. And damn we heated the milk when I first lived there in 1980

The color of eggs depends on the breed of chicken, it's feed, and other factors. sometimes I'll get a green egg from my neighbor. Tastes great.
The "fresh" refrigerated eggs you buy in the U.S. can legally be up to 30 days old. The Costa Rican eggs are better than the typical store bought U.S. eggs.
None of the eggs I had in CR were as good as ones I can get in the US. Same for butter and cheese.
@@ppumpkin3282 Can you explain the difference? If not, I understand. How much better, or worse?
The reason they can let eggs go unrefrigerated is that they don't wash the egg. The hen leaves a protective coating when she lays the egg. US producers wash it off. Ticos do not.
Fyi, the salt has flouride and all of the processed food there.
Egg was ment to kept at room temperature
tell us the prices man

...some bread is around maybe a dollar. Yeah I was wondering the same.

How does this man not know what UHT is lol?
What he meant by 2% is 2% fat, not 2% milk.
2% milk by definition is 2%
fat.
It's 2% Fat not 2% of milk! very different
We DO have that product now
10:39 Turns around, picks something from the shelf with his hands and starts eating it in front of the camera.
Savage.

Is Lucas the owner?
I don't think so, he is more like the manager of the place, because there are several Luperón supermarkets in the Guanacaste province. They are kind of like a Walmart but to a much smaller scale.
No, his parents are the owners, but he’s the manager.
The guy is eating the supermarket ha ha
Cows milk is for baby calves, not humans.
Almond milk is for baby Almonds too! Damn meat savages.
Americans don't think about the shape and look of fruit either - stores just THINK we do. I'd rather have cheap fruit, and I could care less what it looks like.
I don’t think either of those guys know what fair trade means
We have lost of products fair trade …you don’t now Costa Rica …you are the ignorant
The white (american) guy has an ear-ring. Facepalm* 😩😆
The foods they go over are all over the caribbean, not just Costa Rica.
Chilean wine though isn’t widely available in the caribbean but is very good wine.
Red or white?
2% is 2%,to me it is watery. Long life milk is dead, tastes funny and hard to digest.
there seems to be more bacteria in the air, the fruit and vegetables are great but seems to go
bad quickly
Good to know, thanks 👍
I´m pretty sure you should´t eat the bread and fruits before you pay for them lol
He works there so that's ok

USA messes with our food so much we have to be aware of how they are processing things. Stupid and not healthy for us
Nice video but milk we don't need that, and btw the globe does not exist, it's still flat
you have no idea sheeple

There are lots of cows in CR ... We export milk and other dairy products to many countries in Central America and also China ...

Can you do an episode about the fruits and veggies in CR? Great episode!
Hi lady California, we are working on that episode as we speak! Stay tuned!
CR stays more pesticides per square meter than anywhere else in the world. Look for organic and/ or rinse your fruits and veggies well.
Sprays
@@reyes2446 pesticides? Really? What a shame 😔
