I am sure a fellow Texan has answered this question, but HEB products are usually cheaper than name brands like Oreos/ Lays and usually taste the same or better.
I dont now but i guees its complety diffrent its like not a knock off its like a whole foods type of thing they just have like speciale brands not avaidle in other markets i do not now i live in nj
I agree!!
And better ingredients!
A salt lick is a place where animals come to lick salt to give them necessary minerals. They can occur naturally but many ranchers provide them for their cattle. The restaurant named Salt Lick is a marvelous bar-b-que place out in the country outside of Austin. Bar-b-que sauce is not used as a dipping sauce! Brush it on meat before you cook it and reapply as often as you'd like while cooking. The sugar in the sauce helps create a lovely carmalization on the meat. The hill country is what this middle part of Texas is called (where Austin is and many smaller towns) because the land has many small rolling hills covered with trees.
Kate: “Oh my word, is there a place called Katy?!”
Me: Yes! It’s my hometown, it’s a suburb of Houston
Yaaay!! Love that you live there 😀
That's my hometown to
🎄 You need a Katy tree ornament ! 🐻
My husband is from there and we got engaged in Cinco Ranch 😂
I used to teach at Katy Elementary!!
I love H‑E‑B, it’s one of the best parts of moving to Texas for me. They have amazing produce and fresh food. They have also done an amazing job at making things as safe as possible to go grocery shopping during the pandemic. And when we have a hurricane or other weather event, the H‑E‑B company has an emergency response team that brings food and water. They are amazing members of our community, and when we lost our house in a Hurricane I can’t tell you how much they helped. 💕
As a Texan we have a lot of pride in our state. We are the most easily recognized state. H.E.B. is not in every city or town but it is the best grocery store. Bunuelos are traditionally a tortilla fried then coated in sugar and cinnamon and a new years eve good luck tradition to eat. Its an everyman type grocery store. HEB plus has more to offer in the style of Wal-Mart. It has clothes food and other goods. Dr. Pepper is Texas made
H‑E‑B❤️💜❤️ ITS LITERALLY THE BEST GROCERY STORE
Yaaay!! ❤️💗
I've always heard so much about this store. I'm jealous.
Those cookie tins were all around my grandparent's home. They used them to store all sorts of things, from screws and nails to buttons and change.
Hi Kate and Alex! I've watched you for a few years now, and am so happy with how your channel and followers have grown! As a true Texan (born and raised), I will confirm that we Texans are truly very proud to be from The Lone Star State! We've had 6 flags fly over our territory, and lots of interesting history to the settlement! I absolutely love you and Alex, and am always eager to watch each and every video you two post! Come see us! ❤🇨🇱🎄🍭
Hey trisha! Thank you so much for sticking by us and watching for so many years! Always so lovely seeing your name in the comments. I love that you guys are so proud to be Texan! that is so awesome. I will have to look into more of the history of Texas! We would love to visit one day 😀
I actually work at an H‑E‑B in Houston, I run their seafood department. It’s average when it comes to price. Obviously some things are going to be more expensive. But in general it’s very very reasonable
Amazing! 😀 that’s great to hear! Thanks for letting us know Madison!
I’m a born & raised Texan and Texans are definitely proud! Texas has its own unique culture because of it’s shared border with Mexico and our history as a Republic :)
Also, HEB has very low prices on most things. They have a more “specialty” store called Central Market that is similar to Whole Foods. Both stores also have large bulk sections.
I'm not going to lie, I paused the video and added several of these items to my HEB curbside pickup order.
haha love it! Hope you enjoy them
The reason some Americans have square boxes under our trees is we like to wrap a present, inside a present, inside a present, etc. My mom will put the smallest gift in the biggest box and make the gift look very deceiving. Also Kate is right it's very hard to wrap a t-shirt. Besides the box helps hide what gift is inside and makes it more fun to watch the person open it.
H‑E‑B brand is usually much cheaper than “name” brand items. There’s also different level of tiers when it comes to H‑E‑B brand items. There’s Hill Country Fair, heb, central market and many more
Oh cool!!! Thanks Madison 😀
H-E-B has great products, workers are treated well, they have a nonprofit foundation that helps in the community, are a super competent company with top-notch emergency response plans, and they are known for using products from local farmers, ranchers, fisheries, etc. Each HEB is different, because it's tailored to the local community. It's a delight to shop at HEB for our groceries, essentials, and treats as well.
My mother in law lives in Fort Worth, so our family goes every year to visit(we’re from Washington State). I fell in love with Texas because it’s so different from where I’m from, and the people are so nice! It’s true though, Texas LOVES Texas💕💕
We just moved from NY to Austin, I’m sitting here making a shopping list for the next time I go to H-E-B 🤣🤣
Yaaay!! How exciting!! Hope you can find some of these items and enjoy them!
You have to try the cream of jalapeno and cream of pablano soups. They are amazing and a much better addition to instead of cream of mushroom
@@cleotaylor1860 ooo that sounds so good!
@@chelseareynolds9869 they are an HEB brand. And the Hill Country Gate brand makes a Guisada Sauce that if you pour over some stew meat and either use the instant pot or the crock pot to tender up ....yumm.
Hi Kate and Alex!! This is the box we sent you from Austin 🎁🎉🥰☺️❤️ So excited to watch with my husband later tonight (he’d be so bummed if I watched without him although tempting 😂😅) I’ll message later but YAY 🎄
Yaaay thank you so much for such a wonderful box Alexia!! We hope you both enjoy watching later 🥰♥️♥️
You sent an amazing box! I live in MA but my sister moved to TX after college. I have texted her mid-video and she'll be adding some requests from me in her Christmas box coming! Perfect timing! Thank you for introducing HEB to the rest of USA, my sister never even mentioned it.
@@ThisWithThem just got cozy and watched it with James just now! Such a great video and really pleased that you both enjoyed everything so much - personally the Abuelita’s hot chocolate is my favorite too ☺️☕️
🎄 Wonderful box !! My sister in law in Houston loves HEB. So I enjoyed seeing the great treats they carry. Gatsby is so dear ! Blessings from California. 🐻
My mom does 3 trees each year, the large one for the gifts, medium for the dining room, and a small in the kitchen. She uses the one in the dining room as a "for you" tree. So when guests come in and make the corny joke of "where's my gift" she says "under the for you tree" all those wrapped gifts are the empty boxes from the gifts under the family tree. We get a good laugh when someone takes one and finds it empty or filled with pinecones😁
hahaha this is amazing 😂😂
It’s H-E-B like saying each letter they are initials of the owner Howard E. Butt. H-E-B is the best grocery store. Yes, we are proud to be Texans. Yes, there is a version with cheese in the hot chocolate. You can look it up on how to make it on your own. I love you guys 😊❤️🙏 So excited to see our Texas items on here. Thank you to the couple from Austin
Ahh i see! Was wondering what it stood for! We love you too ❤️Thank you for wacthing
America really is an ocean of products! There's always new stuff to try! If it wasn't for you guys, I wouldn't have learnt this much about places & different food brands ♥️♥️
It really is 😂😂 love you hear this. Thank you Amine ♥️♥️
HEB is like a Wal-Mart or Target but exclusive to Texas and northern parts of Mexico. It's quite affordable and most of the time cheaper than name brand snacks. There's also Central Market which is part of HEB but you can find a ton more organic products. Basically the HEB version of whole foods. Y'all need to try Pickle beer and Big Red beer!
Thank you for explaining that Christian 🥰 oh wow. They sound interesting
Alex, a salt lick is a block of salt placed in with cows/horses for them to lick as part of a necessary mineral to their diet. Hunters will also create salt licks by pouring salt in a spot on the ground to attract deer and elk.
Ohhh how interesting. Did not know that at all.
H‑E‑B brand all the way! They’re cheaper than the name brand in product comparison, but they’re very passionate about making the same or better quality and taste.
They get their produce from local farmers and they’re known for their hospitality. During the winter storm an Austin store lost power with a store full of people and let them continue to shop and get what they needed then let everyone leave no charge. H‑E‑B is the best ❤️
🐶 That was an amazing box !When Kate asked about gift boxes in the USA, along time ago the department stores had beautiful boxes and they would wrap up the gifts. For extra money you could get fancy paper. They boxes were not collapsible. They would store them from small to large inside each other. Now they are collapsible. They just hand you a pile of them with some tissue paper. Thank you Alexis and James for keeping Kate and Alex so happy till we meet again. You are adorable, like they said. And your puppy is adorable. Like Bob and Penny. Blessings from California.🐎
I live in America, but have never been to Texas, or a lot of the other states. It's amazing to see the different foods especially at Christmas. Now I want to visit Texas.
When the pandemic is over I recommend you visit San Antonio during our fiesta celebration held during April. Basically a week long celebration of Texas independence and culture! The food is always amazing and it’s so fun but might be a little hot outside if you aren’t from the south.
H-E-B is our neighborhood grocery store. A lot of towns only have H-E-B as a grocery store. They have great prices, better than Wal-Mart on grocery prices and they always offer to help you out to your car. When my oldest was a baby they had no problem getting a second cart to load my bagged groceries into and then automatically helped me to my car (baby car seat in the cart does not leave enough room for bagged groceries). We buy the Oreo brand cookies because my husband prefers double stuff.
We buy the H-E-B brand of pretty much everything else, it is a lot less expensive and in most cases tastes better as well.
The Texan in me really wanted you to read all of the towns to see if my hometown was on one of the cookies! I guess we are a little prideful after all! Great video & happy holidays! ☃️🎄❤️
HEB is the best grocery store! Nothing like Trader Joe’s though
I was born and raised in Corpus Christi, Texas for 24 years (less than a 3 HR drive from the Mexican border). I moved to California about 2 years ago and absolutely miss HEB as well as Whataburger (our Texas-Local burger joint that we all have a love for as well).
HEB is definitely the preferred grocery store to any Texan. Most of the HEBs are in and South of Austin. I believe the Dallas Area had a few but not many. HEB is your typical grocery store that everyone goes to but MUCH better. Their prices are always competitive with other grocery stores around and their house brands (HEB, Central Market, Hill Country Fare) are the less expensive alternative to the name brands. So it looks lux but is definitely inexpensive! Also HEB isn't much like Trader Joe's at all. Trader Joe's is a fairly small store that sells almost exclusively their own In-House brand which keeps the food good quality and prices low. HEBs are large grocery stores. There are also HEB Plus' which are giant stores. Loved watching this video of you guys trying food from a place so close to my heart! It's also giving me ideas of things I need my mom to send me from Texas as well! Awesome video as always! ❤️😊
From Austin TX too, hello fellow Texans! I just bought a bag of Siete Buñuelos so I got to try them at the same time and can't stop eating them. Right after my lunch with Siete crispy tacos! 😄 Siete is such a great Austin, TX brand that helps those of us with limited diets enjoy great food (and not just from HEB!). How fun to watch an HEB box! What I love about HEB is how each store is different and reflective of the area it's in. Although if you move across town you miss out on some favorite things but quickly find new ones. It's the affordable grocery in town but feels customized instead of a generic big box store. Thanks Alexia and James for sending this box and for Kate, Alex and Matt sharing it with all of us!
Heb is the people's grocery store! They are everywhere and they take care of their customers in a way that no other company does. All their food is a version of a more expensive brand but affordable for everyone! Those cookies are 2 dollars compared to oreos almost double the price.
The tins of butter cookies my Grandma and my Mom used to get them every Christmas. They have different brands but they always have exact same cookies. Yes my Mom and Grandma put sewing supplies in them.
Texas LOVES y’all! Been watching y’all for a long time and I’m SO excited that you’re finally getting a chance to try HEB 👏👏👏
Yaaaay ❤️Hope you enjoyed watching Katy
The majority of HEB products are as good as, if not better than, name brands. They are also typically more affordable. We also used to enjoy going to the Saltlick for dinner when traveling near Driftwood. Great food and atmosphere.
I moved from Austin to Korea about 5 months ago and I arguably miss h.e.b more than my friends and family
We Canucks and Brits are far too self-conscious to show much national pride! Thanks for another great vid, you two, and congrats on surviving lockdown!
You’re so right! Thank you so much Kate
My grandmother would make the hot chocolate by starting with just enough water to cover a cinnamon stick (one stick per person). Bring this water to a boil making at cinnamon “tea”, then melting the block of hot chocolate into the tea. Once it was melted add in the milk as whisk till it was frothy. Then divide into portions with a cinnamon stick in each cup.... such fond memories watching this video!
I love your accent pronouncing the "H". I wish I had a pretty accent. Also loved the necklace and earrings. So fun!
I'm sure you have a lovely accent!! Thank you so much ❤️
I MISS HEB! I just moved from Texas to California and there is no supermarket here that can even sort of compare.
Omg yeah I moved back to CA after living in TX a few years ago and I miss it!
Best barbecue in America is Sweet Baby Rays....hands down.
Great name 👌🏻
Trader Joe's is a wholly owned subsidiary of Aldi Nord while Aldi stores in the USA are part of Aldi Sud. Chuckwagon was a field kitchen covered wagon used in the Old West.
Mokalita would be mixing the coffee and hot chocolate! It’s my fave holiday drink. ✨
Abuelita hot chocolate is the best. Our winters are never too cold here in south Texas so any dip in the temperatures is an excuse to make hot chocolate. So glad you enjoyed it.
My son lives in Ft. Worth, but will be moving back home to Tennessee next month. He and his 2 brothers father and fathers family lives in/is from Ft. Worth. So cool that that where you went, Kate!!
I love it!! Would love to visit more
I live in Kingsland Texas and I love HEB. As a Texan we are very proud of our state and I would never live in any other state.
Love HEB! Although HEB is local to Texas, I was always amazed at how sophisticated and international their selections were; I found cake mix from France! And they do showcaseTexas-made products (Poteet strawberry ice cream). But special in my heart is Central Market (part of HEB). Though this place apoears to be for the upper crust, everyone should check it out ..produce dept is amazing, and specialty sections for meats, cheeses, bakery (you had me at strawberry and goat cheese muffins). HEB is one of the things (besides my family) I missed when I moved back to Las Vegas. But I still have some of my re-usable HEB grocery bags...☺
Hi! Just wanted to note that salt lick refers to a salt block usually put out for cows to lick as a source of nutrients and a treat. Salt Lick the restaurant is popular but there are SOOO many other places as well.
Also just a note on preparing the abuelitas hot chocolate: take plenty of time to simmer it and constantly wisk it to break up the grains of chocolate. Near the end bring it to a solid boil, careful to keep stirring and keeping it stable, then a step further to a rolling boil for just a short time maybe a minute. Keep stirring and bring the temp back down. This step is essential in my family who are very picky about the small granules of sugar left if not heated high enough. Careful it can bubble over quickly tho!
And to better give it context in comparison to trader Joe's, they sell name brand products and over the years have continually added their own lines of products to compete. Trader Joe's is cool because there are plenty of affordable options for those with less money and then of course they have their expensive stuff, there is very limited selection for each product. HEB is very much affordable and has several selections per product depending on how much you want to spend. I loved hearing you say the quality seems high because sometimes I worry my bias is too strong lol
The best thing about HEB is how they specifically cater to the neighborhood and/or community they are in! The one I shop at has a Kosher Deli to serve the Jewish population in the area, it's delightful!
When my hubby was a little boy, he loved Oreos but his mom loved Hydrox which is basically similar. She gave him a Hydrox cookie for snack and he asked her, “Mom, how do you spell Oreo?” She said “h-y-d-r-o-x”. Lol.
hahaha 😂😂
Texas is where it’s at!
Siete is a healthy Mexican-American brand offered at many stores, at least near me in CT. They have loads of items such as tortillas, chips, taco shells, hot sauce...all Grain Free, Dairy Free, Gluten Free & Paleo. You can order online as well!
Mmm yum! They all sound amazing
I am sat in my kitchen waiting for my gingerbread cupcakes to come out of the oven at half 8. 😂 loved this video! ❤️❤️❤️
Mmm yum!’ Enjoy those ♥️♥️♥️
That sounds good gingerbread cupcakes
@@lauriecochran8459 awe ty they are good! ❤️
If you ever visit San Antonio when all this covid is over, I can show you around. Fiesta is the best time to come each year.
You'e so awesome! Thank you
Hello SA amiga!
So neat! We live in Texas and love HEB! My husband is also a manager at an HEB, and loves it ❤️ edit: haha, yes there’s a place called Katy, that’s where we live 😄🤗
Amazing!! ♥️ would love to visit a HEB one day! No way that’s so cool 😀😀
I grew up off Dairy Ashford and I-10! Stratford High School grad!
Small world!
@felicia very familiar with that area- wow small world for sure! 😄 hey neighbor! 🤗💛
@this with them yes! Y’all definitely should if you ever get the chance. Some stores are a lot larger than others depending on location. Always have great ‘Texas’ treats 🤤😊
Texas girl born and raised! My husband and I moved to Washington DC due to the military so see y’all try my home states favorite store products is awesome! I miss Texas!
I love butter cookies from the tins! My Mimi used to save them and use to deliver her homemade Christmas cookies and fudge to neighbors and friends. I remember my cousin and I would spend our Christmas vacation with her helping to make days worth of Xmas treats and delivering in our cute holiday dresses.
I've been to Texas once and Salt Lick was the bbq I went to! I thought it was awesome that they had a big open pit in the restaurant cooking the meat.
H-E-B's coffee Cafe Ole in The Taste of San Antonio is awesome! I order it in bulk.
So happy to see this! This is our main grocer here in San Antonio tx.
Heb is actually the “generic” brand, believe it or not. It’s cheaper than brand name! There are tiers to HEB’s brands though. You have H‑E‑B, hill country, mi tienda (certain Mexican items they specialize in) & central market which is meaning to be more like “whole foods” kinds of items. Some hebs are H‑E‑B plus, (think target vs super target) which have a full electronics section, jewelry boutiques, clothing, home & garden centers. Some even have bbq places or pizza places (Heb owned and brands)
Some things H‑E‑B does are hit or miss, but believe that there is an Heb equivalent to EVERYTHING in the store.
And just to clarify I would choose Oreos over Heb brands 🤣 even if H‑E‑B is cheaper. Everything Heb branded is cheaper. Hill country is its lowest tier in terms of price.
Yaay! Happy to hear this 😀Thank you for explaining this for us! Cool that there are some HEB plus stores!!
I think the reason why Americans have so much state pride is because America is so large and has such different cultures and landscapes in every state you go to. So you can really relate to the people in your state and the things you go through and it kind of makes you band together. Like I’m from Alabama and it’s super humid and hot here and so we might complain about different things than someone from Arizona where they have really dry heat. And I think it creates a sort of pride for your state and where you live and why it’s so much better than other places. Like I might say because I’m from the Gulf Coast I think our beaches are prettier because of the white sand, where someone in Maine might argue that the rocky beaches are prettier. But I will say Texans are known for their state pride and really think it’s the greatest state.
I’ve loved HEB since the early 2000’s. By far the best grocery store I’ve ever been to!! Bless to have 2 in the west Texas city I live in!! You can actually sit inside and eat a meal on a table! So awesome 🤠😁
Oh wow! that's awesome! Wish we got them here!
Yes, we use a machine for our coffee. For that particular kind (grounds) we use a "coffee maker". You place a filter in the maker, then scoop the grounds into the filter. The machine heats the water and drops it onto the coffee. It drops down through the filter and into the coffee "pot", which resembles a kettle just a bit. Most people have some form of coffee maker here, just like most households over there have kettles. BTW trying to find an electric kettle here in Texas is very difficult.
I bought one at Target
Hi Kate and Alex! Proud Texan here! Yes, y'all must visit our country (state) more 🙂. Yes we proudly remind everyone we're our own country 👍💞😊 H.E.B. is the go to grocery here. Homemade bunuelos and Abuelita hot chocolate are a must have during the holidays 🎄 Our cold temps, deep south Texas, right now went down to about 60s. Wonderful weather! Hometown cookies are a new fave of ours. Loved watching your video today! ❤️❤️
Hey Carol! We would LOVE to visit more of Texas!! Hopefully one day. Haha love that. They made me feel so festive! So pleased you enjoyed watching ❤️❤️
About a year ago I would always shop for groceries at Walmart (because it was closer to my apartment, now HEB is closer. Is use the app to scan and bag my food as I am shopping and the scan the QR code to pay with my debit card stored on the app. They have better produce. I always bring home unique produce for my kids to try. Love HEB.
Oh cool!! That sounds super quick and easy! Love that, lucky kids.
I look forward to your videos every week!!hope you both have a blessed day!! love ya!!💜💜
Yaaaay! So nice to hear this Olivia! Have a wonderful rest of your week 💗
Oh my goodness! What a precious pup!! And always a great day getting to see Bob and Penny! Grizzly can be the same with treats, the Bougie flooferball he is! 🤣 also, my little useless fact, Renee Zellweger is from Katy, Texas, so there’s that! 🤷🏻♀️🤣 I know random tid bits, no big deal 🤣🤣🤣 but such a cute sweater Kate!! And those earrings! Piper will die when we watch it later! She’s very info her festive earrings, so those will tickle her like no other! How your poor lobes are doing ok with them being so heavy! As always, another awesome box sent! So many things I’ve never seen either! So cool! Please take care and cant wait for Sunday! ❤️❤️😘😘
Such a cutie in his shirt! So sweet. Haha glad it’s not just bob and penny 😂😂 no way! We didn’t know that so thank you 😀 Having random tid bits are the best 🤣 my lobes were a little sore the next day 🤣🤣 but it was so worth it. Love that Piper is into her festive earrings too! So glad you enjoyed watching. Stay safe too and see you Sunday 😘♥️😘♥️
I just have to say, that your videos are so wholesome and entertaining. I think they are just what people need in 2020. Both you and Alex are so funny. I really appreciate the positivity. It feels like we are sitting there with you trying the snacks :D
Thank you so much for this lovely comment Derek! This means a lot to us.
Agreed. I've been watching them for over a year and they are consistent. Big fan!
FYI A salt lick is a mineral block for livestock to lick. Keep them away from pigs. They will gorge themselves then drink too much water and die. A chuck wagon is a kitchen on wheels that feeds the cowboys when driving live stock to market.
Oh wow. Let’s definitely keep those away from the piggy’s 🙈 oh cool! Another thing we didn’t know! Thanks Dave 😀
I’m a native Texan, born in Dallas and now live in Austin. We LOVE our state and are very proud to be Texans!!! Don’t get me started on the BEST grocery store ever-H‑E‑B!! Y’all have to come to Austin!!! You can stay with us! Love your videos! xoxo~Amy 🥰
The box looked amazing wish I was there tasting it ! Love you guys
What a nice box and a great video from you guys. I am having a hard time getting into a christmas spirit this year but seeing you all festive made me feel a little bit more festive as well :) looking forward to more christmas themed videos from you two
Thank you Adina!
So pleased we could help get you a little into the Christmas spirit 🎄
It’s not my imagination is it but these boxes just keep getting better? I just loved the different snacks and flavours you described and was positively salivating over the three trail mixes! Your contributors are just the best guys and so is their little dog Gatsby!
They really do Hazel! They’re amazing aren’t they!! Those trail mixers were soo great 😍😍 Gatsby is such a cutie isn’t he
Those butter cookie tins (here the brand is commonly Royal Dansk) are known as Schrödingers cookies, because they exist as both cookies and sewing supplies until the tin is opened lol
I've been watching since quarantine started in March, love ya'll. This was my favorite video yet - I worked at HEB all through college, for 4 years, and now live in Austin, Texas. Still have that HEB brand loyalty, it's a real thing
Howard Edward Butt , H.E.B. , just one of the things I miss about Texas.
🎄 l wondered what the name meant ! Thank you for sharing the information ! Blessings from California. 🐶
A lot of HEB fresh food is locally sourced or from our next door neighbor Louisiana. Especially, fish, shrimp and crawfish. That also helps keep prices down.
Anything lower than 60 degrees Fahrenheit is considered cold where I am just north of Houston....lol.
Texan here, to tell you that I am an HEB loyalist. NOt only the groceries value and quality but also their commitment to service (in store and out into the community--check it out: they even are known to provide immediate emergency services in time of natural disasters in our state!! and Holiday meals to those in need in each community they are in). They run the gamut of prices but are mostly inexpensive to affordable. They beat out Wal-Mart as everyone's favorite, hands down. PLus our Waco stores have a British Foods section (where i get my PG Tips and digestives) and an Asian foods, German Foods and of course Mexican foods section. Hope you can visit a few in person one day!
Woah!!! This is so awesome and cool to hear! We would love to visit a HEB one day!! Oh wow!! How good, have to have your British treats!
Fort Worth Texas here sending all my love to you guys.... 💖
💗❤️
Chuckwagon is the covered wagon that traveled with the cattle drives. It contained the kitchen for preparing meals on the prairie.
Enjoyed watching this! Everything looks delicious.
I truly love this video so much
H-E-B IS LOVE. H-E-B IS LIFE. Super reasonable, no frills but great quality food. It’s your local neighborhood grocery store. I’m a Kiwi living in TX and I love H-E-B. Much better than Wholefoods (and cheaper) overall in my opinion.
HEB is a standard family supermarket. My sister in Texas loves them.
You should try making a pot of coffee, and adding the hot chocolate packet into the coffee as much as you like!! So yummy! And you really should try the coffee with a small spoon of sugar, and milk or creamer. Its also coffee is made from a coffee maker filtered through😊
Oh wow!! What a good shout! Will definitely try it like that next time! Thank you Lacey!
I love your holiday videos! 🎅🏻✨♥️
Yaay thank you 😀❤️
Kate if you love indulgent trail mixes you need to see and try the variety at target!! It’s incredible, such unique and yummy creations 🤤 especially around the holidays!! I hope you get to try some day
Oh cool!! I will have to try find some! Thank you Lauren!
I love watching your videos my mom is welsh she lived in north Wales until she moved to the states when she was 22 I feel like your videos connect me with my British roots
So nice to hear this Ruth!
Hello Kate and Alex! Thank you for sharing this. You guys are a good team! Always look forward to a new one coming. Stay Safe.
Thank you Yuko!
Alexia and James did a wonderful job representing awesome HEB items. HEB is your every day/reasonably priced grocery store. The employees always have a smile on their face and are always helpful. Everybody has "my HEB" that they go to all the time. Their name brand products are wonderful, sometimes better than the name brand. I love Trader Joe's, but I think it's a higher priced store than HEB.
Yaay!! They really did put together a delicious box. So great to hear this. Would love to visit one someday!
I always have to align these videos either with dinner or lots of snacks. I am loving the long videos too, no one does that anymore!
Hi Kate and Alex! As always love your videos. I’m born and raised in Texas and very proud to say that. I currently live in Austin, Tx. I have to say H-E-B is the best! This year they were rated Top Grocer in the United States. Defiantly, worth visiting when you visit Texas again. Happy Holidays! ❤️😊
Alex it is 6th Street that is famous for all the Bars and late nights out.
Also I love going to the large HEB on Sundays and they do all the samples! Obviously precovid times.
From Houston, Texas
Love your channel and the enthusiasm that you guys have with trying all the treats from across the 50 states.
Hi from Texas!! H‑E‑B is amazing they are normal ranged prices sometimes even lower priced than other places. They have a counter part called central market that is like Whole Foods though. I choose the twisters as the are cheaper as in like half the price and tend to have more flavor and not as fake tasting as Oreos do sometimes.
Hey Kel 😀 thank you for explaining 🥰 I feel like I’ve heard of central market!! They’re so delicious aren’t they and you can’t beat them if they are half the price almost!
I live in Austin! HEB is the only grocery store that I shop at. They are the best! I love your videos:) So nice to see Texas and HEB represented. We pronounce the H a little differently.
Love to hear this! Would love to visit a HEB one day! Thank you so much!!
Happy holidays to you and your family ❄️⛄️🎄❤️
Love from Pittsburgh 🥰
Thank you so much! Happy Holidays to you and your family too! ❤️🎄
I think there are a few reasons Texans love their state so much; it was actually a republic which fought for independence from Mexico in 1835 (I believe) before it became a state, so they feel a “national” pride. Plus, until Alaska became a state, they were the largest state in America.
Ahh i see! I did not know this. thanks Cheryl!! 😀So awesome
@@ThisWithThem I lived there beginning in 1985 in the midst of their Sesquecentennial (150th anniversary) and I found their huge pride in their state a little odd. I’m from Oregon so I found the state hot, humid, buggy and flat. Very nice people (Houston), people from everywhere. Moved back to Oregon in 1992, and I don’t miss the hot weather.
HEB is an average grocery store for the average person. They offer brand named products at average price. Then they also offer their brand of products and most of the time the H-E-B brand is cheaper price wise. Then they also offer a Select or premium line of products. Those are priced a little higher. Even so everything is affordable. Then here in Pearland(suburb of Houston) we have regular H-E-B stores and we also have an H-E-B Plus store that not only carries regular groceries but also has a toy department, clothing, department, electronics and more!!
Watching from Dallas, Texas! I love HEB! We don’t have them up here in Dallas, but the cities in Southern Texas are lucky to be able to shop there. So happy to see y’all unbox this!
A recent cartoon embodied the spirit in Texas It depicts four cowboys pushing Texas away from the other states and into the gulf with long poles /grin. I am in Texas It definitely has attitude.
No way!!
So excited to see this episode 💖😌 H-E-B is the best grocery store
How awesome!! A little bit of Texas in a box! I love H-E-B,, I’m from small town in Texas and H‑E‑B is our main grocery store!! Wish I had the money to send you all some local treats! But really enjoy watching y’all’s videos!
