- Trying 10 Expensive Convenient Foods bought from the Supermarket
1. Caviar
2. Edible Gold Leaf
3. Lobsters Tail with Lemon Garlic Butter
4. Seafood Paella Kit
5. Fish Maw Soup
6. Salmon with Rosemary Butter
7. Roasted Crispy Pork Belly
8. Ippudo Spicy Ramen
9. Ferrero Rocher Ice Cream
10. Escargot with Garlic Butter
I'll never not be amazed at the variety of products at Asian convenience stores. I'm lucky if I can find a decent ham and cheese sandwich for less than $5 at a local 7-11
I think you are misconstruing the word convenience food and convenience store as the same thing. Convenience foods come partly prepared or in kits that you buy from a grocery store.... Though technically convenience stores do carry some convenience foods like ramen noodles and the likes.
They have spent millions on research and know that that is what we will put up with…
@@SilvaDreams exactly. I came to say the same thing. They’re saying convenient food as in already prepared not stuff you get at 7-11.
Same
This all comes from fairprice, Singaporean supermarket lol
Pro tip: don’t use silverware while handling caviar. It causes the caviar to oxidize, leaving a bitter metallic taste behind. Use a Mother-Of-Pearl spoon instead. They are specifically made to serve caviar, since it won’t affect the caviar itself
This is not real caviar! ;) It is made from herring!
This. I winced when I saw him use that spoon.
Given that it wasn't caviar, that shouldn't be a problem!
@@9996113 Caviar literally means fish eggs, but yes traditional caviar is from the sturgeon family.
In other countries it can be from salmon, steelhead, trout, carp and so on... In the US though those would have to be marked as "substitute caviar"
But you still would want to handle it the same way because of the salt they are packed in causing a metallic taste when you use a metal spoon or fork.
This sounds like some snobby bullshit, It's simply not going to oxidize in 3 seconds.
“A crispy cracker topped with Smokey and salty balls”

The part that got me was "I be using the air fryer"

Now she's dead, but thank you for your help, with your videos.
Thank you again.
His videos always are able to cheer one's spirits! But I am terribly sorry to hear your wife is dead, but peace be to you.
That took a dark turn, wording-wise. My condolences.
Didn't ask
@@wildgamer217 bruh be more nice kid, didn't your parents raise you properly?
@@wildgamer217 bi*** over here thinking that oh theyre the main character. does the world revolve around you? did we ask for your own opinion? this is the internet where literally everyone shares things, you fokin narcissist
"Carmencita" is an actual Spanish brand! And pretty famous lol. I was surprised to see the "Paella" kit but it was missing the actual seafood. You could had bought a handful of prawns, mussels or some calamari and you could have prepared a pretty good seafood paella!! Just an advice: that looked like a lot of water, just double the quantity of rice and when the broth starts boiling reduce the heat to low and cover with a lid. Let the water evaporate without touching the rice for around 20-25 minutes and ready to eat!
Yo con lo que me he quedado loca es que tiene con la paellita y todo que gracioso ajajaja
🤩
Eeh literalmente me he quedado un poco confundida porque no he visto el marisco pero seguramente estaría buena xD
Como valenciano que soy he de decir que paella paella no es, aunque tienen la mala costumbre de decir que eso es paella y no lo es, es una marinera, la paella autentica no se hace con pescado ni con derivados es con carne de pollo o conejo mas las verduritas, aun asi tiene buena pinta, pero repito que de paella tiene mas bien nada.
aunque, claro, no sería una paella. Sería arroz con marisco. La paella es solo con conejo/pollo. Con amor desde Valencia
Can you just make like a 2 hour recording of the sounds of this balcony. I swear it is the only thing that puts me to sleep. Love your videos

@@RoninDays you're a dwarf wdym
Isn't lobster poisonous if not readily cooked?
as a french guy, I can tell you that the best part in eating snails is to take some bread and soak it in the garlic butter, this butter is better than the snails itself. lol
I feel like if something needs that much garlic butter it just seems like it's trying to mask the flavor, or that the flavor itself isn't enough.
Which to me isn't a good sign for food, I've no clue why anyone thought eating a snail for luxury was a good idea. lol
je suis bien d'accord :D
🤤🤩
The texture is the same as chewing gum. Non merci.
@@bernadettavarley In some places in Spain we eat them with a spicy herb infusion. Snails are not that flavorful by themselves, but altogether it makes a really tasty snack, and I personally love the texture too. For us is nothing expensive or luxurious tho.
i like the cut between the peaceful showcase of the soup bowl and the violent stabs of the plastic wrapping 😂
I'm in the US in the State right next to Maine - New Hampshire - Maine lobster is awesome and unfortunately these days with inflation very high priced!!
Love you channel!! :)
Oh I hear ya, even living in Maine myself it's a little rough cost wise.
How about “overfished?”
What do you do with the rest of the lobster?
@@erueratait-jamieson480 the claws and the tail are the premium meat. But some people eat the whole lobster...I am not one of those people. Lobster is 😋, so very lovely.
@@briezzy365 nothing to do with overfished....If my town Can afford to pay $25 a lobster tail because we make higher wages than your town Where do you think most of the lobsters will go? ..........Good step one of economics lesson is over ...80% of Lobster is exported to China 60+% of that is flown fresh to China at a higher cost ..They still pay it Of the 20% kept at home These at Restaurants And Flash-frozen markets

You are my ultimate comfort channel:) I’ll never get bored of watching you and your partner eat the foods I can only dream of eating
I live in portland maine so seeing the luke's lobster box had me doing a double take! i had no idea they had frozen commercial meals
Me neither, I ate there before in person and never thought I'd see the place name again!
Probably an international only thing
They started to do this because of the pandemic.
@@mechanicalmonk2020 it's not.
Gotta be careful with some of that stuff as we Mainers know, a lot of the “Maine” lobster comes from MA
Paella is supposed to have a crust, might be why the timer still had 4min left.
I love seeing all the different types of food and drinks there are in the stores, and I enjoy watching you prepare it. Thank you for doing all of this and just for being so awesome. I am so glad I came across your channel a few years ago, it has been amazing watching your videos.
WAIT hold on there is Ferrero rocher IcE CREAM?! How did I not know about this?!!
Yeag, we also have it in Germany
"Smokey and salty balls" made me laugh
My sense of humor is dumb 🤣
Facts I was dying lmao
Ughh I hate my freakin mind 😑😑
Superb clear video quality, and perfect English subtitles too. 1440p and 4k resolutions are much appreciated!
So much good food, very well presented.

The rosemary salmon was less than $14, excellent price for its size. Two very small pieces in my local Coles supermarket costs the same, and we farm it here too, so I'm surprised it's better value in Singapore.
That's ridiculous. Here you'll pay 12 USD for 67% more fish, give or take 500g salmon. As low as 8 USD depending on the brand.
@@HarrDarr Because salmon is a native species in the US. It's not in my country, nor Singapore. It makes sense to be cheaper where you live. By contrast, you'd likely pay a fortune for barramundi, as you'd have to import it.
@@taniasalu2405 I'm not from the US but sure. Perch is all over the world, we can get it here too. The specific fish you were referring to would cost about 15 USD/1000g here.
It can also be ordered online for wholesale prices at 3 USD/1000g but you'd have to order a lot of it - way more than you'd reasonably eat.
@@HarrDarr if you are paying in USD, you're a territory or protectorate of the US, right? What's your local currency? BTW, barra's are not perch. Quite a lot larger. They're the kind of fish that will shank you hahaha!
@@taniasalu2405 I'm not necessarily paying in USD, I was using your example currency so that there wouldn't be any confusion in exchanges or w.e. And yeah, I gather that barramundi is not exactly a perch, however I also wrote the price of the fish over here.
My local currency is SEK.
I absolutely love your channel, I’m disabled and never will be able to get to some of the awesome places you get to go to! I live vicariously through you!! Keep up the awesome content!
My Father retired on the coast of Maine. Every summer after my children and I spent a week visiting. The highlight was lobster night, he knew a lobster man and we would get 2 lobsters each for $5. a lobster right off the boat. I will never have better tasting lobster than those boiled with drawn butter!
very jealous of you
What is drawn butter?
🤤

Really makes my day to accompany you on one of your journeys! Thanks a lot!
I am for Spain, the Paella kit I never see in my country, but I can say is a good kit
Some tips for the next time, you can some veggies like pepper green and red with garlic and when there are done take out the pan and reserve for later, in the same place can add meet, seafood, and take out
The final step is the that you so perfect, but when you see you don't gave no more broth, can add more water
When the rice is soft and donne, add all the previous that take out and add
I hope I could help this tips in a future😊
"It is like digging ears" -- the best description of eating snails in the shell!
Is it a regular thing to cook outside or is it a dancing bacon thing? You have such a variety of ovens and stoves. Love it
i think its dancingbacons thing, like their signature style haha
It is a Dancing Bacon thing and one time their equipment roll down and fell from the balcony so maybe it is kinda dangerous
@@harshitverma6550 oh goodness. Fire hazzard 🔥😄
@@harshitverma6550 i remember their ginger/? or something fell down lol

I'm going to Singapore in a few days with my boyfriend. I am sooooo excited and have been eating very little the past couple of months so I can go there and over indulge 😂 We decided to go there because of you guys and the food you've shown us through these videos. Thank you so much! 💕
it’s insanely expensive- avoid the tourist traps (orchard/Bishan) and go to a hawker Center for lunch. You can get meals for 2-3$ there. The iced milo is really good.
Love Singapore
Let's us know how it went. God bless
@@andrewli2656 Bishan is a tourist trap??? the only thing around there is lots of good-ish schools and a big park
@@PantoPhobicHypocrit true true, it’s not really a tourist trap but it is in the circle line and it’s also kind of expensive. I usually pass by on the way to my aunt’s place but it’s always kind of hit me as a tourist place because it’s like! Right there, in the middle of most things. It’s not really like Sentosa or Nex, but I do see it as a touristy place compared to places like Kovan.
1:52 Smokey and salty balls 🤤
🤨📸
WOW Singapore has it all, and leave to DB to indulge us with some fun pics Gold included. Always Great dining with you guys ! 💕🥓👍
Edible gold is one of the stupidest things ever on the food market 🙄
But otherwise the video is entertaining as always 👌
Agreed.
Well it's about as literal as you can get to flushing your money down the toilet.
Since that's ultimately where it goes.
Yeah the packaging text was just sad as well... "Symbol of wealth". More like symbol of wasted money. :D
@@Danne89 I mean.... They're not wrong
🤤♥️
The paella blew my mind. I´ve never seen that in Spain.
It´s not very similar to how it is actually done, but the result looks nice. So maybe it´s a sacrifice they´ve made to make it easy and fast to prepare.
The paella pan is legitimate and the brand is an actual spanish brand.
Sad it doesn´t have any chunks of vegetables or seafood.
The cost is okay since it includes the pan. If not, it would be too expensive. It´s just rice in the end.
Altough it will only be worth it if you end up using it more times...
For those of you who don't know, the reason the lobster tail is fresh is because they flash froze it (freezing things super quickly), that's how food can be kept fresh even when it's on a thousand kilometers trip from the truck onto your dinner plate
That seafood paella without any actual seafood is such a scam!
A few people said that the lobster tails should have been paired with the paella. I agree.
Seafood paella without seafood, and caviar without caviar! )))
Not even paella, I’m Spanish and he did it all wrong

Correct 💯👌👌🤣
The Ferrero Rocher costs like 3-4€ in Stores for me.
It's strange to see how expensive it is in different places!
Maybe because of shipping?
Shipping yes but some brands just charge more because of branding.
Ferrero Rocher is the perfect example, it’s a semi affordable brand in North America but it’s perceived as a nicer brand in other countries. Buts all mass produced, nothing about it is justifies the price it charges in other countries. It’s all in the name.
Mostly brand. In South East Asia they sell it like it's a luxury. Never had one and never intend to either, I've seen it in my friends home adorned as a show piece lmao.
@@priyachoudhary9896 lmao meanwhile we have em for sell her at Walmart stores for 12 bucks for a big box.
I've actually never seen that specific Ferrero item over here. Weird!
Ferrero products are bad tbh
6:29 i was about to think you would find it bad since we make paella here and it looks soooo different to the convenient store one! Real paella are the best🤤 salute from chile
The extra time on the timer for the paella was to give it it's classic crust 💗
Bruh my name is also Katherine
shocked at how inflated the price for that rocher ice cream is :o i’ve seen it for 3,29 euros
I haven't watched your vids in forever I forgot how satisfying they are lol
I always find your videos so calming for some reason
Yay just got off work and sit down to eat and you uploaded :) makes my night
Can't wait for Ramadhan bazaars and Malaysian hawkers' videos. ♥️♥️
Your videos give a warm feeling ..like watching em ☺️
I appreciate when we get to hear you eat the food.
Me thinking is caviare as number one for most expensive food 😂
Then clearly you haven’t heard of Uni yet
@@benjaminotter9942 caviar is more expensive than uni you fool
But the English on it said it was made with smoked herring. I wonder if it was real caviar? There are a lot of ways to make faux caviar now with all that molecular gastronomy they do. Hum 🤔
I mean it is. Caviar can go for thousands of dollars.
@@Emeraldwitch30 It definitely wasn't real caviar. Real caviar comes solely from fish of the Acipenseridae family (sturgeon). In most countries the manufacturer would be sued under the trade description laws.
5:15 If uncle Roger see this sht, he definitely say "Haiiyaaaaaaaaah... Why you put rice in virgin coconut oil? Are you nephew of Jamie Oliver?" 🔥😆
it's paella, a spanish food.
This was a VERY cool video to watch! i love that you got a pan with the one meal! SUPER COOL!!!
I actually tried the snails like a year ago. I honestly thought they wouldnt taste fresh, but i was blown away. They were so frickin good
Fresh snails in Vietnam (where I live) cost only 100vnd/kg (about 5usd) so if you prepare it right it is a really cheap meal here
Already blessing me for my daily lunchtime video 😩🫶🏽
Omg that was soo much on one cracker 😳 little goes a long way with those salty fish balls
that was my first thought too. I think she might be quite new to caviar.
Your videos are always enjoyable!
The mindblowing thing was actually the german instructions on the paella backside.
Never expected that
I screamed with the accidental slippage of the Ramen broth 😭😂
I had fresh new zealand crayfish the other day with whitebait fritters. ❤

Everything looks good. I want to like snails, but I tried them twice and each time they where horrid. They tasted like the smell of nasty lake. Thank you for sharing!
I love this TH-cam channel 💥⭐❤️😘
I just bought an awesome air fryer and now I know how what I'm trying next. Thank you!
"each snail comes covered in lots of garlic butter". yea I'm pretty sure there's a good reason for that lmao.
that hello kitty gold key chain so cute~ I do want it but when you said expensive... might pass ^-^;
Im so glad You finally bought something from my hometown (Avruga, herring caviar from Pozuelo de Alarcón) and seafood paella from my country (Spain) from a really good brand (Carmencita is the oldest brand who sells good quality spices)!!!! Price difference in Avruga is...shameful, here costs 2 USD :(

sadly exported products have very inflated prices, I'm in Poland and even good quality olive oil is thrice as expensive as it is in spain
@@alexbrands11 what u want to say, if u want to offend the spanish caviar alright but wtf zd
What a lucky find on the ice cream, I've never seen it but it looks very yummy!
The caviar and the paella kit are Spanish products! You can find it in our supermarkets. Caviar at 2'92€, in fact I usually buy it when I make a dinner "de picoteo"(appetizers). Paella kit with paella pot (which is called paella, some people called paellera although it's not correct) is 17'99€, without the paella is 5'99€, but I don't know a single Spanish that use that for making a paella.
That Paella was a bit of a rip-off. It was just flavored rice - with a nice pan. But the salmon meal was a real bargain - looked real tasty too! My tongue almost fell out with the Ferrero Rocher ice cream - have not seen it my area but will now make it a point to search for it. Great video.
You should try Uni later in the future. It’s expensive, but really tasty!
This looks lovely.
I just got home with some food and now I got the perfect thing to watch with my sandwich
11:55 the soup drop XD
I want to see you both eating in an expensive resto like the one with big aquarium ..
Check out their cruise ship videos! So many expensive restaurants. 😊
The seafood paella kit is one of the coolest convenience store things I've ever seen
Great video, thanks
I find paella salty too, a kind my dad would prepare came cooked but frozen and you slowly heated it in a pot stiring to defrost and heat, a good easy meal but nearly inedible with salt
I would think that with the price you paid for the paella, you would have gotten at least some shrimps. All you really paid for was the pan to cook the rice in.
I liked the "just have to provide your own water" part. Very cheeky lol
whoa, that ferrero rocher ice cream! I'd get those weekly 😂
It is not caviar, it is a substitute that is very good, I recommend you spread butter on the wafer, it is made in Spain... come to Spain and I will make you a good paella!!!
OMG I so want crispy pork belly now 🤤🤤🤤
your channel is a worldwide treasure
if I cooked on my balcony, someone would defo complain to the council
🍜
I like that pan that came with the paella kit. Paella on the other hand can be used by someone else.
I've tried paella a few times but did NOT like it.
I love the paella how it provides EVERYTHING except the water, even a bloody frying pan. Imagine if you liked them so much you bought them twice a month. By the end of the year you'd have nearly 30 frying pans. 'provide your own water', Lmao.
I love this channel but each video just leaves me thinking 'what a waste of packaging and materials!'
If you like it that much it might make sense to just reuse the first pan and invest in the ingredients to make the paella yourself i guess. But I agree, convenience foods have an insane amount of packaging
I feel the same about seeing all the double packaging for no reason and extra waste. In my small country we're heavily taxed on plastic bags and focus on eco friendly containers for food while most of the world just doesn't care.
@@anelecky pretty sure they also sell a less expensive version without pan which is just usual rice kit
The same brand sells the rice mix by itself. So you only buy the version with the pan the first time. It's like buying a pan with the mix.
@@vietnamabc2290 yes, they do.
Amazing! :D
im amazed how this guy finishes like 20 meals at once! 😱
Those lobster tales should just fall away from the shell easily. Not cooked properly.
"It's like digging ears-" was that an Uzumaki reference? 😂 amazing stuff, bud! This has become mine and my gf's comfort channel ❤
I like how you try to find the good side of things. I was very disappointed with the paella. But, I can see trying it once for the novelty.
That's nice to see our Paella as a luxury food on your channel.
A que si vdd? Me he sentido hasta halagada
Wow.. just millionaire who can buy these expensive food. 😁😁
Great video 😊
I'm over in here just cackling over the fact that on the instructions for the Paella they translated the flavoring packet, as far as I can tell into 'Trockennahrung' in german. That is normally just used for dry animal food over here
Happy Ramadhan to all muslim except me 🕌
11:55 breaks my heart, ramen broth is a delicacy! Don’t waste any even though it’s instant!
instant ramen broth usually contains a lot of natrium though
I was screaming, lol
Omg I agree ! @kyouno
Man that's something relatable as soon I saw this
😭🤝
as an spanish person i would have never expected to see a paella kit since i didn't even know they existed
btw you should have let the bottom rice toast so you could try our beloved socarrat
I'm sorry to tell you that what you bought is not caviar. This one is avruga which is made from herring eggs, caviar is from sturgeon eggs and also 10 to 100× more expensive !!
Sry to say but it isnt real Caviar. Its smoked hering. As the lable says.
Thats what I saw too. They probably used that new molecular gastronomy stuff to make it into little balls. But it still looked tasty
