Shoutout to Jess, she got y'all right with the Blue Bell recommendation. Beyond that, H-E-B is an institution of Texas. H-E-B has been there for Texans through hurricanes, deep freezes, all sorts of natural disasters, probably more so than Texas government officials have. Most store brands are considerably worse than name brand, but H-E-B brand may often be better than the name brand. Truly, here, everything's better.
True! They even had models that predicted what would happen with COVID grocery crazes and were prepared months in advance.
Blue bell isn't even special. It's average.
HEB Creamy Creations is better than Blue Bell. BB is so overpriced and overrated.
Sincerely,
A 3rd generation Texan.
@@ronnie5472 HEB Creamy Creations for me is as good as any name brand ice cream I've ever had and normally several dollars per pint cheaper. Dollar for dollar it's unbeatable.
Nobody should be buying Blue Bell at an H-E-B. Creamy Creations is GOATED.
Hey, fellas! I'm the cashier who took your order. Thanks a ton for stopping at our H-E-B! We enjoyed having y'all.
Which HEB did they hit? My daughter and I were trying to guess.
Which location?
@@cwill812Burleson
Hope you enjoy your fame! :)
I wonder how much weight they gain on their American escapades....
HEB for life
I was a lineman during Hurricane Harvey when it hit Texas. HEB was in every little town cooking with 18-wheelers, and mobile kitchens, feeding everyone round the clock with generators. really really made me proud of HEB and extremely impressed. it was said at the time.
"I will trade you, your FEMA, American Red Cross for one Texas-based grocery store, HEB."
Our HEB flooded terribly during Harvey, and when they rebuilt they have it a whole store generator, so they were one of the only places open during the immediate aftermath of Hurricane Beryl, which took everyone by surprise, and they did a phenomenal job of managing inventory so they didn't run out of essentials and ice. I missed them so much when I lived out of state 😅
Which HEB has an in-store generator? @@abbyd254 I work out of the Washington Heights store (by Heights Blvd and I-10), and we always have to truck in a portable shipping container sized generator to park in the parking lot anytime disasters happen. It's what kept the store running during Beryl.
@@abbyd254 From what I understand from talking to a contractor whos company built an HEB, their requirements are that the buildings be able to act as a storm shelter, with back -up generators to power the whole store and everything. They apparently cost about twice as much as a comparable grocery store because of that.
I was just telling someone that CenterPoint Energy needs to get their disaster team to link up and take notes from HEBs!
Are the products expensive?
Seeing these British people be amazed at Texas things I take for granted really gave me a new appreciation for the stuff I get every day
Same
Us Texans are blessed 🙏
I'm a Houstonian wanting to move to the PNW and I've seen so many vlogs of Texans who move out and they all say they miss the food and HEB. It seriously makes me reconsider 😂.
Until you need emergency pregnancy healthcare, then you’re in trouble
@@Jean-tt6on As a native Houstonian that moved to Whidbey Island, WA and lived there for 8 years, it is a truly gorgeous area of the country. I loved my time there. The scenery was breathtaking and weather was amazing April through October. The halibut, salmon, mussels, and other seafood were exquisite, and the beer scene was 10x better than Houston. Mexican food, gulf/cajun seafood, bbq, and a host of other food types are non-existent though. The people were unique and friendly enough, but there is a definite difference in the Southern hospitality you encounter in TX. Go check it out for a long vacation, you might fall in love with it as well. They both have their merits.
H-E-B Bakery worker here, have made the tortillas and tortilla chips and it’s tradition for me that at least once a week, I buy a bag of both that I’ve personally made. Helps make sure I keep my work quality in check, but also gives me a lil something to be proud about and enjoy after my work shifts. Thank y’all for visiting! 😁
crazy that you have to buy it and not get it for free!:)
@@AP-jz1eh I know right 😂
Well that’s what happens to your business when you go corporate 🙃
That’s adorable! Props to you for really caring about your work 😊
You probably give alot of people enjoyment, comfort, and possibly medical issues caused by body weight (just joshin), good on you, it's always so wonderful seeing someone take true pride in their work.
Thank you for your service!
Did you know during the 2021 Texas Winter Storm and Deep Freeze, there was an HEB location in Austin Texas that was opened briefly with power, letting thousands of customers in to shop because the power grid here was failing and people were low on food. The electricity went off while people were shopping and the store just let the customers leave without paying for ANYTHING. This made national news headlines all over our country. That’s my HEB! 🙏
Wow!! Of course non-Texans such as me wouldn't know that. But reading this and others about HEB coming to the rescue...if I were living there, I'd certainly shop there a lot. What an awesome company run by awesome people.
They also sold food at price right after Hurricane Harvey. A loaf of bread was 10¢ (it's usually at least $1). They also sent out food trailers to areas where people were working to clear the roads and fed people for free.
They EARN their customer loyalty.
@@JP2GiannaT 🤯❤️ That's so awesome! I wish there could be HEBs up here in the middle of the country. There's no place like Texas!
They are an institution. I lived in TX for a while and they compare highly to Publix here in FL. Always good quality, clean stores, and helping people in emergencies.
@@bwtawny oh bullshit publiX sucks. We have them exclusively here in Miami Beach and they gouge with their prices compared to other stores. And anytime there's a hurricane or power outage they close the doors and throw every drop of food away without ever thinking of giving it away.
As a Texan sometimes I get weirdly self conscious about the excessive grandeur of some Texas staples (even as I ADORE HEB and Buccees) so it's really heartening to see two people from outside of Texas be so delighted by it instead of disgusted or put off.
Me too! 😭but the food is 12/10 always!!
can't be a real Texan if you're embarrassed about Texas institutions 😂
I feel like H-E-B is THE LAST Texas “staple”….everyone has sold out!!!! Buccees, whataburger, but not OUR H-E-B!!!!!
Yeah but come on… would we really want it any other way? Especially our Buccees? 😅 if anything, they’re not big enough.
Why?! Why be self conscious about being the best?
H-E-B has about 400 stores only in Texas and Mexico, and yet is the 19th largest retailer in America. They are the largest private employer in Texas and I think in America. They donate 5% of pre-tax profits to charity. And they do a lot of work helping victims of natural disaster, and the poor. We Texans are proud of them.
Amen
5% of pre-tax is impressive!
These two have seen more of America than most Americans
most americans dont have jobs that require traveling all across america. if he worked at a greggs in the UK they wouldnt even have passports.
For real 😂
I suspect most food travel shows with millions of subscribers see more of the world than all of us working fools. That's the job.
These UK are definitely more appreciative of the United States than AOC and the rest of The Squad.
I don't disagree. I have 45 of the 50 U.S. states under my belt, and my goal is to visit all 50 before I die (and that is just for domestic travel...you didn't ask about international).
They went in at daytime, came back and its nightime. Safe to say Josh was in his element
He was so in his element. Man if he could, Josh would find a way to bring Gabbie over there and do it all over again with her. Well once their little girl is old enough.
Ikr lol those tiny cramped aisles full of a foreign language and people concealed carrying. Go back when it’s real.
It looked like it was cooler weather out, so it had to have been filmed between October/November to February/March. It would get dark like that around 5:45 or 6:30 PM. It's easy to spend an hour wandering around HEB.
yeah they went in around sundown ....its not rocket science
@@TheScentDetectiveno the ice cream melted fast because it was hot.
Ive worked at HEB for years now, Ill tell you, the customer appreciation is really what drives us to keep working. We're treated like humans, and we appreciate that with everyone that we see and help. The disaster relief program will predict and project weather disasters (mainly hurricanes) about a week out, and be on stand-by just a mere day or even hours before landfall, that way as soon as it hits we're already on the way. No store does more for their state.
Grew up in Waco where HEB was our main store. Moved to Lubbock area where an HEB was just built and opened only a few years ago. I NEVER thought I had taken anything for granted until I realized how much I missed HEB! Only thing I don’t like about the one here are the customers. They can act very entitled, rude, and snooty. It wasn’t that way in Waco
Uhm, Actually. (lol)
Howard didn't found HEB, it was his wife, Florence Butt, who started a grocery store to try to provide for her kids after her husband became terminally ill and could no longer work. She started the company in order to provide for the family herself and named the store H-E-B after her husband. Florence ran the store from 1905 to 1919, when Florence's son Howard Junior took over after returning home from WWI. The Butt family still own H-E-B making it one of the oldest continuously family run businesses in the USA.
Definitely in Texas when random strangers are helping you out and giving you suggestions… as a Californian who get to college in Texas, I can say I’ve never talked to strangers inside a grocery store until Texas. Love the people!!!
I have travelled to the east coast and west coast. Also, states east of the west coast. I have to say that people here in the south are friendlier than anywhere else I have experienced in the U.S. I happen to also live in Texas and HEB is a good store with helpful employees.
I've lived in and traveled many States (including CA). Never felt any were less than friendly.
Groceries stores are one of the best places to meet people. Great place to pick up girls. Back in the day, of course. My girl picking up days are behind me.
A 7th generation Texan, if you want to learn to cook ANYTHING,go to a grocery store in San Antonio at 7:00 am, the women alone, are a community of excellent cooks! Love it. 🇺🇸🇨🇱
I'm born and raised in texas but live out west now. People look at me crazy when I tell them that in texas you can make friends with random ppl at the grocery store
H-E-B is the best grocery chain in the United States. I know that may make some people balk, but after Hurricane Harvey hit my hometown, Rockport Texas, and pretty much destroyed everything, H-E-B was the first, they were here the next day, to come in and help our city. They brought in daily trailer loads of ice, food, meals, and cases of MRE’s (meals ready to eat). They were here every day all day long. That first day they also brought in a portable Cellular Tower, because all of ours were down. For the rest of my life I will be their biggest fan and toot their horn every chance I get.
Everybody forgets that Rockport got hammered by Harvey and only focused on the flooding in Houston. People also forgot we were without power for over a week. HEB was first to open up and help out, and so was Whataburger here in Portland.
I used to adore Rockport! I’m so glad they responded quickly.
H-E-B is TRULY the BEST!!!!! Everything REALLY IS BETTER there!!!!
Well done HEB
in 2022, I earned a masters in emergency management and one of my major papers was on hurricane Harvey. There were actually more houses completely destroyed in the Rockport to Aransas Pass area than all of Houston. Certainly Houston had much more extensive flood damage, but there were more homes gone in the Coastal Bend area. Not only was there less publicity for this, FEMA funds were disproportionately sent to Houston partially because those small coastal towns did not have full-tim employees that could work solely on getting FEMA aid. Our little coastal towns have very small city governments. My research for the paper about Harvey was certainly eye-opening. I’m glad to hear that H-E-B stepped up like they did, as always.
HEB is very important to Texas. It is the one company that seems to genuinely care for the community and is there to not only help the less fortunate with food, but also is usually one of the first to respond with aid whenever we are faced with natural disasters. Their original products are amazing and usually have reasonable prices not to mention daily specials and savings coupons. I love HEB so much.
I go to HEB at least 2x week…every week.
My proudest part of this is the manners of my fellow Texans. Love it.
For non Texans, we can tell you HEB's Sushi chefs are very good and each store has a trained crew making it.
Fun rabbithole is the story behind our sushiya brand! It's such a cool story😊
They are on another level man!
Seeing how Japanese food has gotten more popular here in recent years, this doesn't surprise me in the least. I am starting to see places that have boba tea in them.
My neighbor manages half of the Sushiyas in the city; he takes quality and service VERY seriously. They are technically HEB exclusive subcontractors that have zero room for error.
I know right 😅
watching josh in a supermarket is like watching a child in a toystore. Just pure exicetment 😂
Josh is so fun with any type of food ❤
Yea it's gonna be funny if they do one of these in a toy store once the baby comes 😂😂😂
I know right 🤣🤣🤣🤣
And olly is like his tired dad
As an HEB employee, i love there own brand selection, its practically the same as big brands, but way cheaper and most of the time better
Their 1877 mineral water is the best!
I'm a Texan now living in California and when I tell you almost cried at the thumbnail - I MISS HEB SO MUCH
You mean “Ralph’s” doesn’t compare? 😆
Same here. We only have Safeway and Lucky in the South Bay, and a few other smaller chains. Can’t hold a candle to HEB.
Fun facts about Blue Bell Ice Cream. It was founded in 1907 in Brenham, Texas, it being a Texas brand makes most Texans love the crap out of it like our love for Whataburger. The company had an unfortunate event in 2015, all Blue Bell manufacturing plants shut down production and they recalled 8 million gallons of ice cream due to a listeria outbreak. The company was off shelves for months. The company would have never of recovered if it were not for a very generous anonymous doner who helped the company get back on its feet. The company only relaunched with a handful of its flavors in a select few stores across the southern region. It sold out very quickly. Eventually it came back with all of its flavors in all the stores is was previously being sold in. We Texans are grateful to have our favorite creamy ice cream back.
The bluebell famine was the worsttttt 😭
Of course the listeria was because they couldn't be bothered to clean their equipment as their management was being cheap.
Hi neighbor, Oklahoma City here, have gone to four different stores looking for Blue Bell brand and can only find in the Arkansas chainstores. I do not shop there regularly but will for the Dutch Chocolate and Butter Pecan. It’s the best. I know we have Braum’s here but no comparison. Wish HEB had stores in the capitol city. ❤❤
I live in Brazos Valley and we were in the first wave to get it back. I went to visit home in Dallas that November and the girl at the gas station was like “we’re getting bluebell back this week” and I was like….oh yeah yall still don’t have that 🤣
Omg I remember that! Also remember being so scared to buy it again after they came back to the freezer section.
I love the young ladies, “hi Josh and Ollie”
I’d probably be the same way
Life long Texan here. I straight up REFUSE to buy groceries at any other grocery store. Worked to HEB in college and they treat their employees very well. The company is also pretty much considered first responders to any local natural disasters! ❤
Current partner, and I cannot imagine working ANYWHERE else. They really are THE BEST.
5:46 the moment he became a Texan at heart.
The founder was actually Howard's mother, Florence Butt. She opened a small grocery store in Kerrville, Texas in 1905. Howard. Would deliver groceries in his wagon.
But ya know, the always credit the men, all through history
@@giulitorelli or you could say they made a mistake. When you look up who founded it, it credits Florence
Butt, Flo? Now that's funny!!!!
As a former employee at HEB, I can sincerely say that it is a great place to work! This is probably the only work environment I've been in where I truly felt like my team and my boss had my back. There's a lot of trust for the employees to get the job done right, and we take pride in doing exactly that! Working there was a wonderful experience!
I was wondering if they treat their workers well & pay them fairly. Good to know they do! Thanks :)
When I was a kid living in TX, one of my teachers quit teaching to work at HEB. She already worked there in the summers, and when her daughter was struck by lightening and paralyzed, she needed a better paying job. I'd see her whenever we went into HEB and she always seemed so much happier there
@@beantheirishsetter one of our night stockers in Frozen left as a 3rd grade teacher to work for HEB instead
It was until they rolled in DEI and stopped hiring men with the slightest bit of masculinity. At least the New Braunfels HEB Plus
My brother worked in the main distribution warehouse in San Antonio for 20 years. He couldn't work a forklift anymore so he had to leave. He says it was the best job he ever had.
Blue Bell always advertised that the reason the ice cream is so good is because the cows are so happy. Having been to Brenham TX many times, I can see why. The pastures around the area are some of the most pastoral in the entire state. It must be like heaven for a cow to graze on those gentle rolling hills.
It's gorgeous there
Field trip day to the Blue Bell factory in elementary school, I will never forget it!
We need to make you honorary Texans AND honorary southerners!! Y'all and your entire staff have found why the southern part of the USA is the best for food and culture.
“Do they sell the chick fil a sauces on Sundays or do they take them off the shelves” 🤣🤣🤣 got me crying
Fun fact- HEB put a limit of 2 on briskets as an essential item for hurricane preparation before Beryl. Welcome back to Texas!
And they were selling their ribeye for $5.99/lb - they're awesome 😂
prime briskets and tri-tips are my favorite to smoke!
@@abbyd254 the best
I traveled outside of the Texas borders a few times and while I was away, I needed to go to the local grocery store. As soon as I got back home, I wrapped my arms on the walls of the HEB because I had been SO disappointed with the other states grocery store selectin...I would like for all of the Native Texan readers of this comment to take a moment to really appreciate our great and wonderful HEB stores. I know to us (I am Native) it seems like they are always expected to be the best and I think sometimes we take that for granted. The whole company is rockin on all cylinders and if something needs attention, they get right on it. I agree, Here, Everything's Better.
"HEBily" 🤣😂🤣 Brilliant! "Abandon Chip" 🤣😂🤣 Outstanding!!! Love you guys! You're hilarious!
H-E-B also has outstanding disaster response planning. Their stores were all back open almost immediately after Hurricane Beryl. I love them as a company.
During the pandemic, they definitely were on top of things too.
Literally, after Hurricane Harvey the HEB disaster response team (yes they have an actual response team) was out helping to feed the Houston area before Red Cross was even close to getting here. A truly amazing company!
At my HEB in Magnolia, they offered a 10% discount on all frozen foods after Beryl had passed to help shoppers restock once they regained power. Most (including us) lost all fridge and freezer food.
They were? I couldn't tell because the fucking internet was out for 3 days
I went there the night after beryl and they had everything fully stocked! They even had pallets of drinking water at the front (limit 2 ofc)
As Ollie was tearing off the resealable cover for the cookies, internally screaming: Noooo, what are you doinnngggggg? 😂
Moot point -- those boys are gonna eat 'em all before they have a chance to get stale!
To be fair it's like that for every cookie brand 😂
@@JeskidoYTYeah, even in the UK they have resealable “biscuit” packs
I moved to North Texas just over 12 years ago last month. One of the biggest cons was no H.E.B anywhere near the area. And here, within the past year, H.E.B. has finally come to the area! In fact, one just opened about 5 minutes from me and I couldn't be happier!
Yes, I know Dallas area residents who used to drive to Waco because there weren't any H.E.B.s in the Metroplex. Curiously enough, my mom sat in front of Howard E. Butt, Jr. in Baylor University Business School classes during the 1940's, & one business professor loved to run their names together -- Box-Butt. Fortunately, she met a returning G. I., who was stationed at 8th Army Air Force headquarters outside of Cambridge, England in the spring of 1946 & married a Smith.
@@EvelynElaineSmith ,wow, what an awesome story! Thank you for sharing 🙂
We have and have had H-E-Bs all around the periphery of the southern part of the Metroplex for many years. Johnson and Ellis Counties are every bit as much “North Texas” as Colin and Denton Counties, but nobody ever thinks of us. If they went all the way to Waco from Dallas, they passed the Waxahachie store.
I LOVE HEB! Their prepackaged meals and fruit are so convenient for meals on the go. They're also really good at offering ready to cook meals at portion size, so it's easy to eat and stay healthy.
This road trip is going to be epic. I wish Headmaster Dave was with you. Nothing brings me more joy than watching him taste food.
Yes yes, invite Headmaster Dave along for a Texas jaunt, Say....
...Dallas to San Antonio, and all points in between Waco (visit Ft. Fischer the Texas Ranger Museum), Austin, Ft. Cavazos (Hood), and San Marcos (go swimming in Aquarian Springs).
@@stevenserna910- I’ll bet Headmaster Dave would swoon over the breakfast tacos in San Antonio!
When they go to Mississippi, I hope they go to the Coast. They need to go to Parrains in Biloxi.
Yes ugh. Would have loved for him to join the fun.
Voting for headmaster Dave. ☝️
Next Texas visit, you have to visit HEB's fancy sister store, Central Market. It will literally blow your minds. HEB meets Waitrose meets fresh farmer's market.
Commonly referred to as, "Gucci-B". 😀
Central market is hands down the best store in the nation. It’s owned by heb, so no wonder it’s the best
I’m addicted to Central Market products. I wish they would stop phasing stuff out😩
@@MPR_2023 If you can afford to shop there. I tend to highly regulate myself to only get a few "luxuries" I can't get "good enough" elsewhere for half the price. HEB and Publix are probably the two most expensive "regular" grocers in the USA, with Harris Teeter not far behind. Central Market is HEB with a Markup.
@@LeDoux_Ttheir muffins are legit the best ever. The blueberry cranberry muffins are something special.
My experience with HEB’s creamy creations, they have all looked melted on top, but almost always have that perfect consistency, just hard enough to give your spoon resistance, but soft like it’s been melted, even when it’s been in the freezer for hours
16:28 The good old “How hot can it be?” subsequently followed by a fire effect and Jolly feeling the heat 😂🔥
I fell off my chair laughing so hard!😂
The chicken salad grab with the fresh tortillas was the smoothest move Ollie has performed.
Wasn't that the queso dip?
@@JerridCook Screen said Chicken Salad
@@Tensen01 ahh, didn't catch that part. Thanks for the correction.
@@Tensen01No, I had to enlarge it and it said pimento cheese salad.
That chicken salad is badass!! They also sell it in croissant sandwiches. Just delish!
H-E-B worker here, one thing I really love about HEB that I didn't really notice until I started working here is that each store is tailored to the local area. I live in are with a heavy Mexican population, si we sell things like pigs feet, cow tounge, LOTS of mi tienda products, and other things that a store with, say, a heavy German population wouldn't (just like they would sell things we don't have over here)> I once had a family come through the line with a frozen pig face, the face of a swine was looking up at me from the belt.
Yes! I have 2 stores near me; one caters more to the Hispanic population of that area (I stock up on dried chilies in bulk and pan dulce and spicy candy there), the other has a more diverse collection of items, but far less item counts than cultural area-specific stores. It's nice to have options!
I used to work in an area not too far from some of the most well-to-do people in town, and when you go to the HEB there it is very POSH. High-value versions of lots of products on prominent display. Nice cheeses and the like. I have a friend who has worked for HEB for over 20 years and he has worked all over town, though, and he says that location also has the worst (read: most entitled) customers.
@@chucksplatt thank you for the insight
I'm 52 and I still remember how I was traumatized as a little girl by those pig heads. My family bought 2 or 3 of them and put me in the back of the station wagon next to the frozen heads, those dead eyes staring at me.
Omg yes! I live in a Jewish area and my H-E-B has a huge kosher section and a kosher deli!
No store does more than my
H-E-B! ❤ Proud Texan and when I travel no grocery store is like Heb. Their products and hill country fair are amazing. Nice video!!
As an HEB Cooking Connection employee, this was absolutely hilarious to watch. Especially all the puns, even though I've never in my life heard anyone pronounce it that way lmao. And the jokes about Howard Butt's name are classic. As a kid, I used to tell my friends I got my birthday cake from "the Butt store"😂
Ayy, I work for HEB as a production partner; I make the guacamole by hand every morning at my store. Always glad to see people enjoy it.
Everyone loves you!!
the fact that they both put their arms up after tasing the ice cream is hilarious.
And all three Italian handed the tortilla 🤌🏻
I have lived in Texas about 40 years now and I still get this excited walking into my H-E-B. 💜
Ollie has a fresh tortilla and instinctively knows it’s made for picking up food 👏
Ollie's confusion at all of Josh's excitement over basic grocery items is so funny
I think they were in the RV too long.
My thought is, it's the going on a road trip thing- you're always excited about buying food for the trip!
I don’t know what it is but the energy between Josh and Ollie feels extra chaotic in this one, like everything about this feels a little insane and I love it
Even in the shots after dark, it's probably still 85-88°F out there. Hard to stay quite so polished when your balls are sweating so much, they need their own towel.
It’s giving summer break brothers vibes
I agree. Its like they've been locked together in the RV for too long. They're getting on each others nerves.
They need a vacation from each other for about 6 months.
That Texas heat made them a bit delirious 😅but I'm all for it.
@@stevenserna910 Their chemistry felt really off to me
The HEB corporation also has Enormous Truck trailer vans that are tiny stores, that roll out when power goes out, so that people can get fresh food. and yes, they have been known to give away food at times...
I love H-E-B I use to work at my location and it’s the only place I shop. During Harvey no one had electricity or water and everyone ran out of food. H-E-B had lights and they let everyone shop for free not paying for anything at all. They did the same during the freeze. During Covid they were letting people shop and depending on your situation they adjusted prices for you. Hurricane Beryl just happened and the town went a week without power causing people to not have food or water and overheating in the summer weather. People were allowed to go and get something and take a rest in the store. They are an amazing company who truly cares about the community and gives back to it. They treat their employees tremendously well I only left because of my health. Pretty much H-E-B is the best company on earth 💖
Texas native, shop at HEB two or three times per week, thank y'all for coming!! We love our HEB because of the selection, the prices, the amazing quality, and the general vibe of the store. Every time I go, the employees are in a great mood and very helpful. I will say, if you manage to go back, GET THE BRISKET QUESO. It is life-changing!!!
I'm not a native but I lived here for around 20 yrs and heb is the place to go if your on a budget for sure. Employees are nice and work efficiently. Checkout is usually fast even with long lines
Add beer instead of water in the brisket, game changer
@@MPR_2023 welp, I know what I'm eating this week. 😂
She came in so clutch with the bluebell recommendation
I think HEB’s creamy creations are better. That candy bar and raspberry truffle is beyond delicious.
It's a change to see Josh so excited while Ollie seems calm. LOL. Is it the heat in the parking lot that's making them so silly? (Hebily - hahaha)
It’s all the carbs and sugar they just ate.
I used to work in produce at HEB and if you guys want to make your own guac like HEB, we used the following:
- Lime Juice
-Tomato
-Cilantro
-Purple Onion
- Salt and Pepper
- Avocados
Make sure to mix everything really well together
You’re welcome :)
Ty!
As a Texan currently residing in Kentucky. I can honestly say, the thing I miss most is HEB. I miss HEB more than I miss my family.
Just a round of applause for like every item in that cart. ❤❤❤
I’m really considering moving out of Texas, and other than my family, HEB is the only reason why I don’t want to leave.
every single time i’ve talked about moving out of Texas, missing HEB has been my biggest hesitation 😂
My middle school daughter said she can’t go to college out of state because they don’t have an HEB. 🥴
Maryland. So miss HEB.
josh is officially a resident texan. everytime they've come here there's sheer excitement on his face about everything lol
When he said the honey butter would be better on a chicken biscuit, he earned himself an official Southerner membership.
He's always been like this... 😂 Bit extra for a Brit... Louder, more excitable... Basically an honourary American!! 😂
@@maureenjc8459 well he did grow up basically everywhere the whole world... schooled in China, friends with Koreans, travelled to US (and met his wife), and finally homecoming back to UK...
The power grid in Texas sucks! We're not on the national power grid, and in Texas it's privately owned and fails the state often. HEB is the best grocery store in the state's 💙
Love seeing the two of you collapsing into giggles in HEB parking lot!
Fun fact, it was actually Florence Butt that founded the store, but her son Howard when he took it over eventually changed the name to HEB. Florence started the small store in Kerrville. The Butt family are still in charge of the stores today which is why they are consistent in their products and prices. And they do so much for their community.
HEB worker here, I will actually say that HEB is hands down the best grocery store chain I've ever been to, even after traveling the US and some foreign countries. even if I don't work at HEB, I will always shop there lol
the military sent me to Texas and was shocked they didn't sell liquor like the grocery stores in Cali. HEB is a good store
@@fmfdocbotl4358 - I think that’s because of stupid laws in Texas. Can’t buy hard liquor on Sunday, so folks stock up on Saturday. When my sister was stationed at Davis-Monthan AFB I was amazed when I saw hard liquor in the grocery store.
Hey What about Central Market??
0:50 Ollie thinking we say “Here, everything is bigger” instead of “Everything is bigger in Texas.” made me laugh. 😂
On god
The comment, a store with a horizon!
Haha, he was talking about HEB. Their “saying” is Here, Everything’s Better for HEB. 😊
Josh & Olly, Thanks for visiting the Burleson Texas HEB!!!
We Love Y’all!!!
As a Texan I was surprised that all grocery stores weren't like H.E.B. When I went to Nebraska I was very underwhelmed and disappointed.😅
same, when people talk about their grocery stores i am nope not as good as HEB, so far the ones that failed to live up to HEB for me are, Fred Meyer, Meijers, Safeway, Kroger, Albertsons, and i cannot remember the full name but in Washington a store that started with Win was owned by the employees.
Omg same!!! The state of their “fresh produce” had me questioning life and don’t get me started on the meat sections😩
Facts!! I’m from Nola and have live a many places and nothing compares to HEB
1:41 Took me five minutes to realize "meati-enda" was Mi Tienda 😂😂😂
I just hit it as I read your comment. Oh my gosh! I would have got it because I've taught Spanish for 30 years, so I'm used to atrocious accents. That man has got to do something😅
no literally I got whiplash from it😅😂
Oh my gosh! I literally thought it was a meat salsa that was playing on the word "merienda" 😅
There's a street in San Antonio called De Zavala. One of my friends visiting from Utah was looking for Days of Allah Road.
@@dchall8😂
This video made me cry with laughter Josh & Ollie are so unintentionally funny, it's comedic yet wholesome
Hey guys! Welcome to Texas and to HEB!! That’s my favorite store and I was actually filled with such a sense of excitement and pride when I saw the title of this video! So glad you enjoyed it! ❤😂❤
lol loved that they were almost instantly recognized and people had no trouble just giving them recommendations and chatting with them.
Seeing Texans help these Brits in HEB out of pure kindness and excitement for someone's first HEB trip is exactly Texan behavior. Love ya boys 🤟🏼
I shop at HEB Plus every week. Glad to see you two enjoying it so much. Seeing it through your eyes teaches me not to take it for granted as something mundane.
When I got my drivers license at 16, one of my first destinations was my local HEB. Not to shop, but to ✨frolick✨. The employees are so kind, the shoppers are nice, great selection of anything you could possibly need, great pharmacy too. I am a Texas native, but HEB never gets old.
As a Texan I’m so proud of that girl who recommended the Blue Bell ice cream! A Texas classic!
Josh is still with the “raaahhnch.” LOL
and peak-un :)
@@hogie48 LOL yes!
This chicken, bacon, raunch wrap is incredibly raunchy.
Every time I hear it, I think of Keith from Try Guys' reaction
it sounds nawhsty like that
Great store and great business - very good to it's employees. Loved working for HEB decades ago and miss having one close by (but they're expanding our way in North Texas!)!
Howard didn’t found the grocery store chain! Women couldn’t own businesses.
The company was founded on November 26, 1905, when Florence Butt opened the C.C. Butt Grocery Store on the ground floor of her family home in Kerrville, Texas. In 1919, Howard Edward Butt, Florence's youngest son, took over the store upon his return from World War I.
What's kinda cool is that HEB has been handed down through the Butt family only 3-4 times and is still privately owned! So Charles Butt, one of Howard's grandsons, still works for HEB
Also, the company was started by mama Florance Butt (not Howard!) way back in 1905 as a small local business that grew to be larger - in Texas - than WalMart!
....and I heard the company will one day be passed down to HEB's grandson, Harry Butt. ✂️
Why can't they run the power grid instead??
@@Jazz_Dahlia 😂
Charlie doesn't "work for" the company. He's the primary share holder (owner) of the family-owned (non-publicly traded) company. He is the president of the company.
@TexTom1981 yeah i def could've worded better and was going off memory (last I remembered he was front-running Central Market stores and Craig led the HEB stores) so you're right
Butt in a way, a CEO still "works for" their company! :)
Jess and her dad, Ward, were so cute! I really want those butter tortillas.
HEB also makes a butter tortilla candle that has nailed that scent
They are every bit as good as described. My personal favorite are their "mixla" tortillas, that are made with both corn and wheat flour. You get the softness of a flour tortilla with the deeper flavor of a corn tortilla.
Throw some cheese in between 2 and it makes an insane quesadilla. Simple, yet so rich and delicious.
You do really want those tortillas. You really, really do.
*looks at username* Wait a minute...
I loved and laughed at that comment about the Chick-fil-A loophole.
HEB has done more for Texas than some of our officials. So we put respect on the name. Thank you for stopping in.
"Eating out of a trolley in a parking lot. This is the life." We Americans call that being homeless.
😂😂
🤣🤣
Not if you have enough money to get a room, food and transportation wherever you go; that's called being an affluent nomad.
😂😂😂
They're in Texas, I'm guessing it should be "out of a buggy."
Credit card statement shows H-E-B as H.E. BUTT. Read below to see found out.
When I was in college at SHSU in Huntsville, TX, I was on a low meal plan, so I went to H-E-B a few times a week usually spend less than $10, but sometimes more. I was blessed that my mom paid my credit card bill, because I knew if I would abuse it she'd stop.
One day she called me and said she needed to talk to me. She mentioned that while I'm in college she understood that I would go out with friends, but she thinks I am going out too often and was concerned with the place that I am going. I was also working whole in college, so I had no idea what she was talking about, so I asked her. She said I was going to a place called, "he butt". SHE THOUGHT I WAD GOING TO A MALE STRIP CLUB multiple times a week!!
I was horrified! Luckily, I had just learned about H.B. Butt in my Texas History course!!
I so miss H-E-B! I laugh every time I think of it.
That is a funny story...thanks for sharing it. I hope Jolly gets to read it.
I love this! So funny! Also a fellow Bearkat here
That’s hilarious. And more so because a male strip club would be called HE BUTT😅
Ah, good old Sam Houston State. Love that area and the city - even with 'the walls' unit being 2 blocks from my apt.
Fellow SHSU alumni here. Great story! I am older and I can see myself saying that to my daughter. lol PS- just moved to an area where the closest HEB is almost an hour away and I am NOT happy.
This video makes me so happy to watch. Most of my family lives in Texas and whenever I fly down for Christmas, we do a lot of grocery shopping at HEB.
Thank you guys for sharing H-E-B with the world. My dad has worked for HEB nearly 30 years, and its certainly one of the best companies out there. And the store brand stuff being just as good as the name brand has always been great to have too.
We live in the Texas panhandle and we have not been blessed with an HEB yet. This is because there is not a distribution center near us. HEB promises their drivers they will be home every night. So no long runs. I respect that. We miss it, since we used to live in San Antonio, but we patiently wait for one to open their doors in Amarillo.
They finally opened a few locations in north Texas recently. I suspect they are working their way up there.
United/Amigos isn't bad here...like a small baby version of HEB. lol
@@huyenly7603 we go to Lubbock often and buy our coffee and some other things we like while we’re there.
best of wishes
I love just east of Dallas, and they're just moving into this area. I miss living on the west side of the Metroplex where I could go to HEB any day of the week!
Guys: The honey butter is for the still-warm, soft tortillas. The cowboy cookies should be freshly baked from the in-store bakery. Also, have dairy ready to neutralize the hot peppers. Welcome to Texas.
We just went through Hurricane Beryl. Our city's H-E-B was the first store to reopen on generator. I love their stores.
blue bell flowers that grow in ancient woods when its literally the state flower and they are every where lol that was great
I graduated from high school in the town HEB was founded. He had seven kids, and built each one a mansion. Our town library is named after his wife's hyphenated name. BUTTHOLDSWORTH LIBRARY. It always made me laugh when I was a kid.
Oh, I hope Ollie sees your comment. 😂
Not the butt hold library! 😂
Kerrville baby!! My hubby is one too!
Tivy, Kerrville :) I graduated from Schreiner.
That is probably the funniest thing I have ever read lmao thank you
As a native Texan, Blue Bell is the most AMAZING ice cream there is! If you make your way back though Texas, I would be honored to take you to the actual Blue bell factory and you can see how it is made and try the other classic flavors!!
We take HEB very seriously in Texas because of their willingness to help people during disasters
Josh super excited about fresh chips and salsa is exactly what I needed to brighten my day :) You guys make my simple pleasures I have every week more meaningful again.
A lot of times I find that the HEB brand products taste way better than the national brands. And the little yellow coupons all through the store are great because it's usually on items I would normally buy anyway. Glad y'all enjoyed it!
Absolutely! The H-E-B brand sodas are half the price of name brand, but I legitimately like their version of Coca-Cola more than the real thing!
I knew they stood behind their store brand when they had coupons (several years ago) on the shelves where if you bought the H‑E‑B brand product, for instance corn chips, they’d give you the name brand product free! Like go ahead and compare them side by side, ours is just as good if not better. That says a lot to me.
HEB is literally the only thing I'll really miss if I ever move out of Texas. Combo Loco, baby!
@@tangyjoe4326 I remember using the hell out of those "compare" coupons lol
Let me tell you how much we Texans love Blue Bell Ice Cream. A few years ago, they unfortunately had a contamination issue which can spell death to a company, but we as a state rallied so hard behind them. There were so many memes of people sitting cross legged in front of the ice cream section where they had to be disposed of, and 'just waiting' until they came back. It's an institution here. Everybody knows their theme song and every kid has had their fair share of their ice cream cups at every single kid birthday ever, and if you were lucky enough, your school got to go to the Blue Bell Factory and get the free samples on the best field trip ever!!! We feel the same way about Blue Bell as we do about H-E-B. Just like Buc-ees, their branded items are actually really friggin' good and I love that they care about the community so much.
I heard the talk of BB ice cream for years. They've finally started selling in St.Louis two or three months ago. Cookies Cream with waffle cone bits is my fav...this month til i can move on to find another flavor. It was butter pecan or black walnut before that. Tried the banana pudding flavor but it was strange how exactly it tasted like nanner puddin. 😁. I'm glad they finally started selling in the area. We were limited to store brands(eek!) or the expensive brand sold by those two weirdos in Connecticut.
@spacehonky6315 if you're into chocolate skip the milk chocolate and go straight to Dutch chocolate. My favorite chocolate ice cream
@@spacehonky6315 gotta try the cookie two step
We loved Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla especially because it tasted like our grandma’s hand churned ice cream. So good
They make a couple of cobbler flavors occasionally that are fantastic too. You get real chunks of the crust and nice hints of salt that make it extra rich. Their coffee ice cream is also great.
Yeah, HEB is good. The biggest and best one in my city recently purchased the vacant building next to it. I heard they are going to unite the two buildings, as they aren't far apart. Less than 50 ft of new construction should bind them. This will make the store around 35-40% bigger. I'm excited.
as a texan this makes me happy
"This place is HUGE!" ....as they drive up to my every-day grocery store😂
yes! my regular store is an HEB Plus! I'm there almost everyday
Thats Texans for you, willing to help anyone with a smile on our face! Your a gem Jess!
Someone could have tipped them off to those insulated grocery bags so they could have salvaged the ice cream lol
You need to try their mandarin sparkling water, it’s lightly sweetened and totally delicious! The bottles taste better than the cans!! The BBQ they sell in the attached bbq restaurant is also awesome!! Another that’s LOVED by my family is the street corn nacho chips !
