I LOVE grocery stores! I can spend a good hour in that grocery store, so many options! Great video.
Yes!

That store was amazing! It’s like an upscale Trader Joe’s / Whole Foods combined. Thanks for the tour
That’s what I was thinking too! 😊
Hi!
I am swedish, the dish clothes are mostly called "Swedish dish cloth" in english and they are spongy 😉. We mostly call them Wettex-duk because Wettex is the most common brand.
They can be washed in the dishwasher, in the washing machine or boiled clean in a pan on the stove. Most kinds are compostable tho not all.
We use them for cleaning all over the house, with just a tiny amount of warmish water and perhaps some dish soap or if someone spilled something.
They sound fantastic. Of course I would want an authentic one. 😁 I need to search online for one! 😊
@@Thegrocerylady im also swedish and its exactly like anna says. Everyone in sweden uses these and wettex is the most common brand. I googled the brand you had in store and I thought they were sooooo expensive. 6,50$ for 1 cloth. We pay like 3-4€ for a 10pack. And I saw they also make beeswax wraps. I use Swedish beeswax wraps and I also buy raw beeswax and make my own. And when I compare where I get my from againt these something just doesn't add up. Just for reference.
@@sarahaggstrom3471 Thanks for checking it out. It definitely sounds like you get a much much better deal than we do.
This store reminds me of Thrive Market here in Wisconsin! Same thought process, not a place to do all your shopping but a good place for special things! We also have a store chain called Woodman’s which would blow your mind! I don’t care what you are looking for, you will find it there! Really good produce but one of their “claims to fame” is their aisles of ethnic food choices! Downside, their stores are huge! You can spend hours in the place if you don’t know your way around! Woodman’s is employee owned!
Woodman’s sounds AMAZING!! I would LOVE to shop a store with a huge ethnic area!
This store reminds me of a co-op that’s what we have in Wisconsin
😊
Omg congratulations! 15k subscribers!
Thank you Toni!! 😊😊😊
We have those Swedish dish cloths in Finland too. :) The trick is: before every use to rinse it well, then twist dry (so it's left just a little damp). After that it absorbs very well. When it's totally dry, it's like bent cardboard and doesn't really work... :D
I’ve been eyeing some on Amazon. I need to buy a set and try them out!
Kumquats are meant to be eaten with the peel. The inside is extremely sour, the sweet peel is what makes them edible. Lurpak and golden syrup are also popular here in South Africa
I can't wait to give Kumquats a try! People keep saying Lurpak is good... I need to check it out!
I wish we had that store here. So cool & homey. I would love to shop there.
I really liked it! 😊
This was a fun video. I love seeing what different grocery stores have. Especially the ones I don’t normally go to. Great job Meghan ♥️
Thank you Linda! It’s always fun to see what other stores carry and how they’re laid out.
What a fabulous store! Can understand your excitement! I’d spend a fortune there 🤭
You and me both!
Hellow from Denmark 😄
Lurpak is a brand of Danish butter, from the company Arla, it is super delicious to use in baked goods or with roasted veggies and if you are not into salted butter (which is almost unheard of over here), their unsalted butter is SO good! compared to other options I have tried. I would definitely recommend that you try it at least once.🤩
I love to follow your videos and see what differences there are in both selection but also prices.
I clearly think we need more options in this country to be able to buy in bulk and thinks that is one of the reasons some prices on e.g. nuts, seeds,
toiletries, meat and milk is getting Sooo high over here. 😬
I hope that one day I will be brave enough to possibly be able to share what a shopping trip over here looks like. 🤞🏼
Im from the UK and tend too only use lurpak. Its the best out there
I DO need to try the Lurpak! I've heard so many good reviews! Next time!
Hi Megan, I'm from NZ, we can get most if that bulk food stuff that you can get as much as you want there by the fruit and veg in most of our supermarkets here in NZ. We have some bulk food shops too where you can get all the PB and honey and teas and coffees etc too. Great places yo find interesting products... oh and you actually eat the peel.of the kumquat.
Love this store!! Thanks so much for taking us along!!!!
😊😊
I really like your videos. I just live with my boyfriend , so i don't need to do big grocery shopping, but i still enjoy watching, I think it is calming. Im Japanese our grocery stores look very different. I find it very interest to see what it is like in America 😄 Thank you for uploading 🙏🏼
❤️❤️ I would love to see a grocery store in Japan! I imagine it is quite different.
Harvest market is owned by a friend of mine! At least the ones in indiana not sure about Illinois. Her mom passed away and her dad has dementia so she handles the stores now ☺️
They are really old stores though not quite thus nice lol
Someone said they found one 45 min from them and said it wasn't very nice. 😩
In new jersey they have Wegmanns which is similar to this store. It's fun to go to once in a while because they r pricey...great walk through
Heyyyy family and Happy Thursday love your video ❤️❤️❤️
Happy Thursday!!!
That store is awesome! What a great selection! It reminds me of Whole Foods.
I live in Florida and you can eat the skins of the kumquats.
The darker orange ones are sweeter.
I use to pick the fruit right from the trees.
My grandmother had coconut trees.
The brown part you see are from the middle of the coconut. You need to get a screwdriver & hammer to get to it.
There's coconut milk inside that you can use.
My grandmother could strip a coconut like no one's business! She never let a coconut go to waste!
She made the best coconut cake!
What part of Florida does your Aunt live?
You're grandma sounds amazing! We bought and opened a coconut once and it was moldy inside. So sad. We need to give it another try! And thanks for the tip about the Kumquats. I'll have to look for a darker orange one when we go to try it. 😊
@@Thegrocerylady She was and my mother took after her!
@@MsWDWFAN1 sweet! 🥰
Kumquats are ok to eat whole, peel and all. I'm allergic to any citrus so I don't eat them. And I hate mushrooms too! They just taste dirty to me. Love watching your shop with me videos ❤️
I can't wait to give Kumquats a try! And yes... Mushrooms are the worst.
The swedish dishcloths you saw are called wettextrasa in sweden. And yes they are probably used in all swedish kitchens for wiping tables, counters and stoves. But I dont know if its a Swedish invention. Greetings from Elin in Sweden Skåne
Hello to you in Sweden!! I need to check out the dishcloths!
Amazing store. 😊😊
They are owned by Niemann foods inc in Quincy,IL. Same owners as County Market. There are only 2 Harvest Markets right now
I use silicone all the time. Several pans and they're great. Amazon has full size silicone cups for cupcakes and not too pricey either
I need to check it out!
@@Thegrocerylady jumbos are 12 for 9ish $ and regulars are 24 for 7is $
@@gingerhurst9204 Not bad at all! 😊
Aloe is really good for you 🌼
Yes!
I don't know about the particular brand you showed, but I have been using the Skoy brand for years. Love them! Between washings, you can throw them in the microwave for about 2 minutes to sanitize.
Fantastic!
So jealous of all your store options! My area is extremely limited on shopping options. In my actual town we have a Walmart, Kroger, Giant Eagle, Aldi, small locally owned IGA, all 3 dollar stores (family dollar, dollar general, and dollar tree), all 3 chain pharmacies (CVS, Rite Aid, and Walgreens), and a Lowe's. If we go across the state line into the next town over we add a Sam's club and a home depot and that is basically it without driving 2+ hours to a bigger city. Pretty much all of our stores only carry the major mainstream brands so you are extremely limited if you are looking for low carb, gluten free, sugar free, dairy free, etc. I so wish a Meijer or Target would come to our area and give Walmart some competition since they are basically our only option for non- food and non- home improvement type stores! I've had to do most of my Christmas shopping online the last few years since both Toys R Us and Kmart closed in our area severely limiting our toy selection to like 4-5 aisles at Walmart! 😭
That's tough. Thankful for online shopping!! 😊
Lurpak is danish, best butter ever! Do give it a try! :D
I think I will!! 😊😊
Looks like New Seasons in the PNW. I wouldn't be surprised to find they were owned by the same company. Kumquats, you eat whole - skin and all. They have a tart/sweet combo that is delicious.
I’m looking forward to trying them!
Enjoyed this video!!
😊😊
Golden syrup on crepes (pancakes) in the UK awesome try it! Lurpak is number 1here on the UK Danish butter really good
I must try it!! 😊😊
We went to their Mother’s Day brunch last year, sooooo good!
I need to do a meal there some time. I love a good salad bar!
That's actually quite similar to our supermarkets here in Europe
We never have stores like you in the states in the UK. Stores like Costco, are our equivalent of business only supermarket, for small hotels rtc
That was fun. We do not have any stores here like that.❤
Golden syrup and lurpac these are our things here in the UK. That shop looked lovely but definitely on the pricey side 🤷🏿♀️🤗
Definitely pricey, but fun! 😊 I ned to give the butter a try!
@@Thegrocerylady oh please do! It's one of my favourite butters 🤗
@@virginievaudran2141 😊😁😊
I want that store in my town. I loved the tour.
😊😊😊
Yes. I've been to The Country Buffet.
😊😊
Lurpak is THE Danish butter brand - so if you want to try Danish butter that's the one :)
I tried it on Saturday!!! It was amazing!! 😊😊😊
Wow wow wow what a store ...
Do try the dragonfruit, it is a cross between a pear and kiwi fruit, Cheer's from Western Australia
Sounds delicious! And hello to you in Australia! 😊
We have harvest markets in our area, but they are a small family owned ,older store
How interesting. This one came around just a few years ago… though I’m not sure where it originated.
Can't believe this is real. My kind of heaven
🥰🥰
Beautiful looking store, wish we had some like that here their displays are fantastic, so expensive though 😔
Definitely pricey, but lovely!
Meghan, I finally tried Rao, I'm in love. Thanks for turning me on to it. I would love to shop at that new store
Yay!! So tasty! Glad you like it!
That strawberry milk has stole my heart but then again it's the only crap I bought from Harvey's market everything else just scream "EXPENSIVE" lol once a month I indulge on their seafood and donuts which also incredible but back to Aldi I go
A little indulgence and a lot of Aldi = balance! 😊😊
@@Thegrocerylady that's so true, love your hauls video! 😊
Have used silicone cups and trays, I prefer the trays. We use meatless crumble in chili and tacos….no one knows. 😂 if the Lactaid was more than a pint, then that’s a good price. 😍
I’ll have to see what size the ice cream is. My daughter LOVED it! I’m so happy we found something she likes and can have! 😊
After watching this video I looked up locations and found one about 45 minutes away. I planned a trip and sadly, it was very underwhelming and nothing like the store in this video. 😂
However, I did like that they had a lot of more “specialty” items and a lot of organic options in the dry foods. The produce looks old and the meats looked (and actually were) expired. I would go back for the dry foods tho if there’s something I end up loving. We still spent a good amount of money lol.
ETA: I was hoping to see that beautiful bulk section, they didn’t have it 😭
Oh no. How sad. 😕 Sounds like the dry goods were good, though.
We don't have that store. We had Fresh Thyme but they closed 2 years ago.
Psyllium husk is the active ingredient in Metamucil I am pretty sure. I use it in gf baking because I don't tolerate xantham gum.
I didn’t realize you could use it that way! Nice!
Lurpak butter is from Denmark and is really delicious
I must give it a try!
they have a great bulk section and I love their kabobs.
Hello Meghan , this is your Moroccan friend again , good to see you
I actually liked this store , seems cool and well organized and helps to comfort the eye , and the prices seem fair unlike Walmart and the others ,I will be considering having my groceries from here if I get to set foot in USA
I just have a little question , does the meat section in this store or any of the stores contain Halal food ?? or do they have stores on their own ??
cheers , and thank you
That's a good question... I don't know.
The Whole Food Store looks just like that on the inside of the store.
wow. very interesting. I am in Ohio. We don't have this store where I live
It's pronounced "silly um " 🙂 the husk powder that is lol
😂😊
I think the kombucha cups were on the window sil. Wow loud greatest showman music!!
Ha ha. Yes it was so loud at the front of the store. I was hoping that it wouldn’t be too much for the video.
Miss old country buffet
It was a good one! 😊
What a fabulous store, I couldn't hear what you saying. The music was really load.
I agree with you, mushrooms. 🤮🤢 But I love that store!
The store was gorgeous...this is my kinda shop-a- rooni. I could see lotsa dollars flying outta my wallet in a place like that...yes please.
😂 Exactly!
Nice & informative video
interring store for sure.,
Sponge clothes exist in every single household in Sweden (mine included) :)
I need to see if Amazon sells them! 😊
At 9:10 minutes I can hear lady gaga, the cure song. Probably copyright infringement.❤🇨🇦
Hi Meghan My granddaughter Abbie is lactose intolerant. I get her the Lactaid ice cream. She loves it and I don't mind paying the extra so she can have ice cream. Yes I spoil her. Lol. Your daughter should love it also.
She did love it!! I agree that it’s worth the extra. Not spoiled… loved, right?!
@@Thegrocerylady yes Meghan your right very very loved.
Lurpak is a very good butter from England x
Next time I’m going to give it a try!
I also like how they label their gluten free stuff clearly.
They do! And the organic produce. 😊
What is the name of the store, please let me know! I am a faithful fan from Montreal, Quebec.
Hello to you in Quebec! It’s called Harvest Market!
Jack fruit is probably my least favorite food in the world. I would say something stronger but know how touchy some people on the Internet are.
😂😊
