It's fun to see you at the grocery store but I wouldn't mind if you took pics and talked about it somewhere else. A mix of both types of videos would be good!
You should tackle the frozen section in Trader Joe’s. I know there are a lot of people, including myself, that are looking for some quick grabs that will make quick meals.
@@BobbyParrish Yesssss!!! Especially the chicken burrito bowl which is *almost* Bobby approved based on the ingredients from what I can tell, but not quite :) It tastes similar to Chipotle's to me.
Trader Joe's would not want them to do that because than people would not buy all those products that these guys revealed bad ingredients and told you not to buy. Sure if they said this is great everything is great but they are telling it like it is. Nice for a change.
Trader Joe's attitude is NOT what I like in a store. They act like someone who is HIDING something. NOT COOL. I don't shop there anyway, I'm a "Whole Foods" girl, but this makes me NEVER want to go that store. Not honest....I don't give my business to liars.Honest businesses get ALL MY DOLLARS. Trader Joe's should know better. But thanks so much for your efforts anyway Bobby!❤️
You can easily make your own dressing with the exact ingredients you just listed, plus couple more things in a blender, cheaper and healthier than store bought. I'm used to eating raw unwashed veggies from my garden. With raw cheese and grassfed meat preferably.
Trader Joe’s should encourage you to film. I can’t count the times I’ve gone to a store to purchase products based solely on your recommendations! #freebobby #flavcity4lyfe
Looking back at older videos. Thinking that Bobby is so good in front of the camera in any situation and charismatic with everyone. A lot of eye contact, responds/listens well and very friendly to the people in his videos, says people’s names often, etc. Bobby, thanks for being you!
Really appreciate all your work and persistency for your audience!!!! I've talked about you to all my friends and family!! Your channel is extremely educational!!!! 😬🤓📚📝
regardless of whether the information is 100% accurate I believe it's a very good starting point to understanding labels better;.....just have to use a little common sense
@J G Finally someone who isn't gullible!!! People should constantly do their own research and verify information before accepting it as fact. And for goodness sakes, be consistent in your principles. This guy is all over the place.
One ring of the bell at Trader Joe's tells employees to open another register.... Two rings means there is a question from either a cashier, or customer, at checkout. Three bells signals a manager to come over, four rings means "all-hands-on-deck.... Five bells means flav city is filming in the store again 🛎🛎🛎🛎🛎
Paul looks very nervous on the second go round but still very cute "undercover brothers"! Thanks so much for all your your efforts you guys. Always learn so much. ~kendra
I love how the shelves are uniform and perfectly aligned! I hope they don't put your pic up and ban you from all TJ's. Too bad u got kicked out when u were going to talk about the peanut butter. I was interested.
Thanks. I love TJ's peanut butter-so low in price! I had bought the no salt crunchy and blah-it needs a touch of salt. I have their pbutter bc I am in the path of Hurricane Dorian. Your video today was a bright spot! I like the haul videos especially the Aldi ones!
This is the protein powder I use-- Organic Whey Protein Isolate Powder Unflavored, Best Grass Fed Whey Protein Powder for Men and Women*, No Sugar and Non GMO, Made and Sourced in The U.S.A. by Natural Force---.
Check out the Clean Label Project’s study on protein powders. They test for 130 contaminants and toxins, it is really eye opening! They also have studies for pet food, sunscreen, baby food and other things! It a great source of information! www.cleanlabelproject.org/protein-powder/
@@lisagrimsley6929 I found this on Amazon-365 Everyday Value, Organic Creamy Peanut Butter, Unsweeteend & No Salt, and Smuckers also makes a organic peanut butter
Just my opinion, but I don't think they are worth the money since you're paying $30-40 a bottle for quality grassfed ones, which you can use to buy grassfed meat or wild caught fish instead. Especially since meat is a whole foods so have more variety of nutrients. I understand the convenient factor, but I only eat in a 4-6hrs window, so I don't need any shakes on the go. I did buy Bulletproof collagen powder for my parents. If I have to buy one, I would find the most affordable grassfed collagen powder.
I do shopping at Traders Jo every Monday for more than ten years. I love their products, reasonable prices and organic. Keep up the good work! God bless!
Thank you for such a great video! I like that you do closeup picture of each product as I can save them as the pictures on my phone. In the last few weeks ( since we discovered your channel), we have replaced a lot of food items in our pantry/fridge! Thank you again for helping us be aware of all these not so healthy ingredients in the food we buy!
@@BobbyParrish You save me so much time when I go shopping and when I see an approved Bobby item I just get really excited. You are changing my life and my family's life
Watching this is stressful 😂 The anticipation of you guys getting kicked out was killing me. I would be happy with just pictures and your commentary / voiceover 😀✨
I have no idea how you’re able to record anything in Trader Joe’s! The ones here in Connecticut are all the size of shoe boxes & jam-packed with customers & employees 24/7! 😬
Omg yes like mine, the Farmington one... forgot it. I can’t move an inch without accidentally hitting into someone or knocking something over. They really need to expand/remodel.
bet902 lol I was there last night! I tried to go later so it wouldn’t be as packed but even at 7:30p it was a full house. No way you can read labels for ingredients without people glaring at you to move or just pushing their way by. It’s annoying so I try to make my TJ trips as short as possible & only go for the things I can’t get anywhere else. If it wasn’t for that I would do all my grocery shopping there esp since the employees are so nice.
-Gut health: This is your first line of defense. Multifacet based on diet/lifestyle, being outdoor, eliminating most modern wheat and other processed foods, avoiding glyphosate which damages the gut -Glutathione: Master antioxidant made in your body. Made from various amino acids found more abundant in animal foods, and aided by sulfur containing foods (animal foods and cruciferous vegetables). Also from NAC (acetylcysteine), this one have many many healthy benefits and very interesting in itself. Most antioxidant in plant foods when consumed is not used by the body, and could have negative effect when consumed in excess. -Retinol: Vitamin A from liver and other animal foods. You can not get retinol from plant foods except conversion from carotene which is small and depends on various health factors. Retinol is "crucial for your brain, immune system, skin, eyes, teeth, bones and for the formation of hormones". There is a widely regurgitated myth about vitamin A toxicity which study shows is due to wrong form of (synthetic) supplementation, not from whole foods . (Thus, water-miscible, emulsifed, and solid preparations of retinol are ≈10 times as toxic as are oil-based retinol preparations. The safe upper single dose of retinol in oil or liver seems to be ≈4-6 mg/kg body wt.) -LDL: The so called bad cholesterol, important component in fighting viral infection. Solution is simply don't take statin. If you find this hard to believe, read the article " Lipoprotein Power - LDL and the Immune System" which have citations. -Sun exposure -Getting good sleep -Fasting and activating autophagy (watch Siim Land for more info)
If Paul had a basket to put the Bobby Approved items in, it would appear you were legitimately helping him shop for good products. It was cool that Paul was asking questions!
Bobby, could you explain vinegar further? I'm confused on how vinegar is bad for your gut, but apple cider vinegar with the mother is good. I would love to know more! Also, TJ should know that your videos make me want to shop there, and I live an hour away from the nearest one. Just saying. We should petition for you! Lol
I’ve never understood why stores get so mad when people film videos like this. You’re basically advertising for them for free lol idk why anyone would get mad and y’all aren’t causing any trouble or anything y’all are being respectful and low key. I hate stores that act ridiculous when you’re just filming talking about products lol
@@alfredoxu7926 That's ridiculous. He's not showing anything that any corporate competitor can't see by walking into the store themselves, and there are no huge secret marketing methods. There are a lot of subtle things most customers don't notice, but every company visual department knows these, and teaches them to thousands of visual employees in every store in the franchise. Trader Joe's reasons are simple: they prohibit video taping in all of their stores because it potentially offends customers; the camera might inadvertently capture something that could be used in a civil law suit; and it's against the law to record video *and* audio in a private place without the permission of everyone in range of the camera and microphone. There's a notorious case from the 1990s where a news crew brought cameras into a public retail business and later broadcast the footage. They were trying to expose some sort of regional price-fixing, and the footage ended up going around to sister stations across the US. Unbeknownst to the news crew or anyone at the store or TV station, one of the store clerks was in the WitSec program, and was recognized by numerous people that thought he was dead. They came looking for him, and were arrested. WitSec planted undercover agents in the store, posing as clerks, who worked there for weeks. The protected witness was relocated, at great expense to taxpayers and his own safety. There's one other thing: Bobby's information is inaccurate, and sensationalistic. In this video, for example, he goes on about how hexane is a "chemical", therefore it's bad. He asks his partner what hexane is, and the partner clearly doesn't know, but neither does Bobby. He says the word "chemical" as if it's a bad thing, but every ingredient in every single product in the world is a chemical. Water is a chemical. The irony in his rant about hexane is that it's not even a single chemical - hexane is a group of non-polar, colorless, odorless solvents used in many industries. Fun fact: hexane is used in manufacturing iPhones, and there's more hexane residue in a typical iPhone than there is in an IBC (275 gallon container) of canola oil. It's one of the reasons new electronics smell the way they do fresh out of a sealed package - the hexane slowly evaporates from adhesives in the phone (primarily the screen, speakers, and microphone mounting) and carries other chemicals with it (that's why it's called a solvent). Those include aldehydes, like formaldehyde - to which you're exposed every time you use your phone. I'd love to see Bobby's face when you show him a list of "chemicals" found in an organic orange.
Because there have been nasty videos made making fun of customers (think "people of walmart"). The store owners have no idea if they are saying good or bad things about their items. I think the store does have a right to decide what goes on inside their own building. Also customers may not want themselves on RU-vid or their children on RU-vid. Also recall the videos people are making of themselves doing things like licking a gallon of icecream and then putting it back on the shelves. The store owners have no idea if people are doing a kind review or pulling off some crazy prank.
I’m with Paul. “May contain” and “processed in” does contain “traces” but not purposefully so it’s not required to be listed in the ingredients list but it is also not allowed to have a call out claiming to be free of. Due to my kids allergies, I’ve been in contact with quite a bit of companies this summer and have learned if there is not a “free of, free from” callout, to not consume it. Thanks for the info on the oils though! I hear so many mixed reviews on the types of oils I was actually starting to think grapeseed was one of the best. Never would have thought it was just another canola! And I just bought a big thing of sunflower oil. Guess that’s going back to TJs tomorrow!
@J G Actually, we do have a right to privacy - it's mentalities like this that just accept the violation of our rights that causes us to keep losing them. I don't blame Apple, I blame people like you who give up and let Apple take whatever people are willing to give up.
if say, that’s child’s parent came up to the camera man and asked for that footage to not be included I would hope that the film/editing crew would respect their wishes. So legally yeah, I’m in no way an expert. But in terms of common decency, shouldn’t we think past the narratives of “no privacy in a digital world”?
This is a business operating on private property which is different than catching people in the background on a public beach. I'm pretty certain it's illegal to profit using someone's image (a shopper) without their release. I wouldn't be happy if I appeared in the background let alone my kids. They're making quite an effort to not get caught so this is beyond an "oh OK, I didn't know we couldn't film in here". It probably time to buy the products and review them off site.
Please do more TJ videos! I do the majority of my shopping there and I'm realizing now I'm buying all the wrong stuff when I thought I was being healthy! thanks a lot!
Hay we love Paul nice addition to the house .ya . Love your reaction when you got caught at the first trader Joe's 🤣. Keep umm coming Bobby . We love you ❣️
I think occasional consumption of apple cider vinegar have various health benefits. Especially when taken before meals to aid digestion and help control blood sugar.
IN ADDITION, YOU SHOULD MAKE SURE THE INFORMATION YOU DOLE OUT IS FACTUAL. YOU ARE INCORRECT IN STATING THAT SUGAR KILLS THE BACTERIA IN YOGURT. ACCORDING TO THE US PROBIOTICS ORGANIZATION, SUGAR DOES NOT "INTERFERE WITH THE DIGESTIVE PROCESSES OF GOOD BACTERIA IN LOWER PARTS OF THE INTESTINE."
I appreciate what you and Art and Paul are doing but I got more nervous watching this video than actually learning from it. I agree with the voice over suggestion. Less distractions and more info. And probably easier for you guys.
Hey Bobby. Can you do a video on butter. I was at the grocery store and there were so many choices. Kerrygold and Greenfield Irish butter. There was Danish butter and Finnish butter. After looking for pasture raised is it only a matter of taste?
Hey guys! New sub here, love all the information you give. I'm trying to eat healthy and love all your tips and products you talk about. I've been binge watching!!🤗
Keh-FEER (Kef = Kurdish word) Not to be confused with Kiefer Sutherland (the ACTOR) Drink Keh-FEER, not KEY-fer... because Kiefer Sutherland is human and you’re not vampires.
Thanks for the tip on “pasture-raised” eggs. I noticed my local Hyvee started selling them and when I just looked into it it appears they also are just feedlot pasture-raised
shalar01 just went to Hyvee’s website where they talk about the One-Step pasture raised eggs being 100% cage-free with 108 sqft(aka a 10x10 area) of space and then says they are fed in a barn. I may be wrong but that sounds very sketchy
During the last two month's we have learnt so much, we don't have the same shops in England, but Natural Flavours appears, along with all the bad ingredients. Our buying habits changed so much.
LOVE Your Persistent Diligence!👍😎 I stopped consuming MANY products, INCLUDING TJOES Papaya Mango juice, due to those "Natural Flavorings" which is a Chemical! Thank you guys!❤👑
I know your a home cook! But it would be nice to see a video on safe restaurants to eat at!!! Not sure if this was the video, but it was nice to see you guys eating out at chipotle :)
These videos make me so glad I live close to local dairies that sell their product through local grocery stores. Most of the milk comes from jersey cows that are genuinely pasture raised and have no extra ingredients, even the whipping cream is actually....wait for it....just cream! A couple of dairies even have the old fashioned cream at the top products. Yummy.
Thank you so much for the priceless information,though I was disappointed about the pasture raised eggs I recently was teaching my daughter and her roommates to buy that specific brand from Trader Joes's.So,can you tell us please which type is good to buy.
Hi Bobby thank you so much for answering my questions!!! Could you do a video or explain briefly spices and using them raw or cooked for their benefits?? You used cumin raw in your beetroot hummus does it still have the benefits not cooked? Thank you!! This video was so funny!! I totally would be a look out for you and Art
I found your channel by accident. After watching, I headed over to TJ's. I got alot of your recommended items. I'm excited to try. This was very informative and I enjoyed this vid. I'm going to subscribe. Thanks.
What I don't understand is why you don't contact the company and request permission to film. You're advertising their products. That's beneficial for them. I also don't understand why you don't blur out the faces of the random shoppers in your videos. Especially when some of them are children.
Treble the company would suffer because they’re being exposed for some products that have less healthy ingredients. That would require them to adjust, and turn would cost them money. Not helping the company.
