In any case, he went shopping after 5 p.m. because the display in the bakery was quite poor. And the fresh asparagus (the Germans like white asparagus) and the radishes were also gone. If you really want freshly harvested vegetables or freshly baked bread, go shopping earlier in the day. Supermarkets only offer a certain amount of perishable/fresh goods so that they don't have to throw away too much in the evening. However, some food banks pick up leftover products in the evening.- Although there are grocery stores in large cities like Cologne or Berlin that are open 24 hours a day, the vast majority of grocery stores there close at 10 p.m. In small towns earlier and in Bavaria the opening times are even more restrictive.
This is completely wrong. Trader Joe's does not belong to Aldi, it belongs to the Markus Foundation. And the Markus Foundation is a family foundation of the "North" Albrechts. Aldi South has the stores in the US under the name Aldi.
@@alexanderblume5377 "Trader Joe belongs to ALDI North" No, Trader Joe's belongs 100% to the Markus-Stiftung. Aldi North belongs to 61% to the Markus-Stiftung.

Spargel is asparagus. White asparagus is the one, that is being kept under soil, so it grows below the earth and stays white in the process. It is the same plant as the green asparagus you well know. Oh and our price tags include tax, so what you see is what you pay.
Mmm they sound good! I like mixing some hot sauce sometimes into our ketchup. We also usually have Filipino spicy banana ketchup which I love to have in the fridge
@@herrkulor3771 just checked mine, it clearly states between 15% and 18% sugar, depending on type -> Ketchup is basically candied tomatoes in a bottle ^^

Trader Joe's is a German grocery chain and belongs to ALDI Nord. ALDI South was the first which opened stores in the USA in 1976. When Aldi North followed later they couldn't name they stores ALDI for corporate identity reasons so the brand name Trader Joe's was choosen.
Yes, you can buy alcohol in the german supermarkets - from wine to beer, whiskey to other hard liquor, champagne, etc. To buy beer, you need to be age 16 only! For the other alcoholic drinks, you need to be 18. The cheapest beer (= half-liter size) costs around 50 cent (incl. taxes). It is also legal to drink alcohol in public. So in the summer you might see some german teens drinking beer in the park. But they won't get extremly drunk as they drink very responsible ... and have to walk home, later on, or have to go to school the next day.
you get all types of alcohol in every grocery store in germany, beer, wine and liquor, also the drinking age is way lower, beer and wine at 16 everything else at 18
Man that’s different from here. The states also sells in the grocery store. Everything here is basically dependent on province. In BC and Ontario it’s so heavily govt involved, in fact it’s only gov run stores in Ontario. Alberta is private business so usually cheaper. Also in gas stations etc I think
@@UntilWeGo the german drinking culture has something to do with that, in bavaria for example beer isnt just a baverage, its considered as a staple fooditem
the ketchup he's getting is as an acquired taste. It's kind of thin and they have various flavors, with curry, or hot. I got two bottles of those once when they were on special offer, I've still not used all of it years later. I don't even know if it's good to eat anymore. I prefer classic type tomato ketchup. Schumacher had the skiing accident, he's still in hospital to this day, but the family has decided to tell nothing but the minimum to any press. I never cared for the racing stuff, but I respect their decision, especially as some media would probably pay them millions to get the exclusive story, new pictures and interviews with them. There's a funny story about thos little plastic shopping cart coins. Basck in the days when corruption was still taken seriously, a German minister had to resign from office because he endorsed a relative or friend's production of these coins on official government documents. I'm guessing he didn't even get paid. A while later, he died in a probably purposefully suicidal parachute jump.
Alcohol is still quite cheap even though prices have gone up. Wine and sparkling wines that were 2.50 are now 3€ but on sale still 2,60€ instead of 2.30

I spend around 40€ a week. I rarely buy meat though^^
Same here. Around 150-200 per week, 2 persons for everything incl. cigarettes and beverages. Summer 2024
