In this video, I wanted to share our experiences of what it's like grocery shopping in Ireland and compare some of the differences in foods, products, and prices to the United States. I hope it will be helpful to others!
Remember EU and Irish standards are much higher than the United States. So the food is healthier for you not toxic so even American products to be sold in the EU have to meet Irish standards
Yes in ireland they use bog manure. Specially blended by the Irish leprechauns so the vegetables and fruit grow in enriched ten thousand year old mammoth pooh to give it that earthy old sewage flavour.
Thank you so much.we are thinking about moving to Ireland we are tired of hot and hotter in Florida. this gives me much information and things I need to know please do more videos
Certainly worth considering if weather is the motivator. Ireland has pretty mild weather all year round with winters not too cold and summers not too hot. But get used to the metric system as weather here is in Celsius. It's pretty easy. 0 is literally freezing, 10 is cold, 15 is average, 20 is an Irish summer's day and 25 is 'take the day off, this might not happen again for five years' You'll rarely encounter temperatures lower than 0 or higher than 20. That said. If you miss the really hot weather, the beaches of Southern Europe are a cheap three hour flight away, Likewise the ski slopes of France and Italy if you wanted to experience winter. And, you'll get much more vacation time from your Irish employer to enjoy it than you would have in the States too. Ireland in 2022 currently has the 2nd highest quality of life in the World after Norway according to the Human Development Index.
@@marcborrelli7374 Because it never crossed my mind. Of course it rains in Ireland. Around 33%-40% of days in the year will have rain but there's rain and there's rain. Most wet days in Ireland involve sporadic light showers during the course of otherwise dull days, or even breaking up otherwise sunny days. We're renowned for having four seasons in one day in Ireland. Sometimes you get washouts, as happened yesterday in the wettest day of the year where it rains steadily all day. But it's quite rare for Ireland to experience what people would call a rain storm with high winds and driving heavy rain. Happens only two three days a year. People in Ireland know to carry a brolly just in case.
Thanks for sharing! I'm surprised at how cheap the prices are on some of the items compared to the US. I'm going be traveling to Ireland for a vacation. I enjoy doing odd things such as shopping in another country.
Stop wishing,, start planning, whether it's a vacation or to relocate. I've lived in the States and would recommend Ireland to any American, particularly if you're politics lean towards Democrat rather than Republican. Ireland has swung from being one of Europe's most conservative countries in the 1980s to being very liberal. Employment rights and benefits, cost of living and quality of life are all better than in most of the States, crime rates are something even the most law abiding cities in America can only dream of, education standards are slightly higher, medicare is okay but private health care is easily available and cheap by American standards, Even the busiest cities are no more than a ten minute drive to the heart of the countryside, the whole of Europe is within a one {Great Britain} to five {Turkey} hour cheap flight away. The only big downer is that the US Government will still ask you to pay tax as an American citizen.
Is this an Aldi or are they price matching Aldi? Wow. If so, Aldi in the US does NOT look like this (4 aisles with much fewer selections) and its a low cost saver shopping experience. Thanks for sharing. Your’s also doesnt seem very crowded
Lidl and Aldi are two supermarket chains owned by two German brothers. They are all over Europe and very popular. They’re well laid out with a good choice of items-many of which are cheaper than in other supermarkets. Prices in both chains are much the same. I do the bulk of my grocery shopping in Lidl.
