    My mum had tea time every day and there are tea houses that serve tea and high tea in Florida and the south. Medicinal teas are also extremely popular like Traditional Medicinals and Yogi Teas. Iced teas are popular in warm weather with Ice tea brands such as Red Rose, Lipton and Tetley.
    British brands are also popular for morning and afternoon and high teas. So yes tea is extremely popular in the United States.

      That was a revolt against taxes on tea. Not tea itself. Do they teach anything in school today? Coffee is much more expensive and had it's peak during the Barnies and that other overpriced yuppy brand Starbucks started by the fellow on cheesy show Battlestar Galactical. Tip Necafe instant with cocoa and rediwhip cream cheaper and better. WW2 brought in perk coffee and donuts. Folgers, Maxwell House, Choc full of nuts, A&P store Brand came along. Freeze Dried brought instant coffee and instant Sanka decaff in hotel rooms. Barnies brought flavored coffees. Home machines brought expresso and other cooking methods.

      Espresso is really just the machine version of Turkish coffee. The Italians thought they could do better with their intense coffees. There are different acidity and variety in coffees, Guatemalan Antigua, Ethiopian Harrar, Kona, and French roast/lighter roasts. *Much* better than Starbucks, who even when they sell varieties, does something to kill all the variety of flavor. I am older, I saw the rise of Starbucks and even the demise of much better chains that they even bought out. Maybe their coffee was an improvement in rural Montana.

      @VicariousAdventurer 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Starbucks is not the peak of anything. But the Great Majority drank Dunkin' Donuts and such, and Brazil and local to this hemisphere countries grew coffee. Wealthy Americans partook of tea, but India was not our colony, and the India Tea Company wasn't our company. In fact, Cornwallis became India Governor after his big surrender in the American Revolution, so tea really was not as accessible to Americans.

    I visited my relatives in southern Russia in 2004. The grocery stores lacked Western food items. But the local food was delicious. When I returned 4 years later, the grocery stores were stocked with Western food items, and the local people had gotten fatter, most likely from consuming the junk food imported from the West.

  • @Thisthatother
    @Thisthatother 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    My in-laws are in 30min outside st-petersburgh, prices are higher than a few years ago but that's likely not related in many ways to sanctions since prices are astronomical here in Canada too. You really have to shop around and buy things on special. I just bought just under 500g of avocados and it was $6. The organic ones were $1.10/100g so a Kilo would be $11. One hugely important variable is season. Buying produce that is not local to us in Canada during a time of year when it's not in season in many places makes it super expensive. But buying oranges in February is not an issue as most come from Florida and are plentiful from nov-may. Everything is relative. My wife is visiting family as we speak and she got a huge cheese and blood sausage for the equivalent of $4CAD which is a joke. Her folks are pensioners and they are not struggling to get by, most Russians have seen worse (I have heard the stories of empty shelves in the early 90s, so much so that my wife is still sick of pasta to this day when it was difficult to find much due to sanctions)
    I'm from Chile and I can speak on the fruits/vegetable front because i know first hand that Russia and Chile have a huge trade agreement since 2005. I'm told that it lead to innovation in the agricultural front in Russia and they have since diversified a great deal. Naturally, some things just won't grow in certain climates but you get the point.
    Anyway, my point is that there are tons of videos on youtube that show that sanctions really didn't do much of anything and prices have gone up in Russia just like everywhere else worldwide but wages here in Canada have not kept up nowhere near the level of inflation with food nor with fuel.

    I'm relieved you're back East. Did you take the train or did you fly? I'm glad the shelves are full, but junk food and sugary health foods should be reduced. Perhaps the reason they are so cheap, is to entice people to buy them. To have it every once in a while is okay, like you said.
    We're still selling millions of tons of food to dragon country and they've started a draft, so who knows if you going East is any better than the troubles of the West?

    @RandalKoene 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Very interesting comparisons. As it happens, I have the opportunity right now to compare prices in a few EU countries (NL, IT, BE) and in the US (San Francisco, which I know very well). It's very interesting to see what sort of products cost the same, more or less. For example, I found that pretty much everything you showed costs either the same or less (sometimes significantly less) in the European countries I've recently spent significant time in. The very cheapest of those was Italy (particularly in the South). But even the Netherlands does fairly well on most food prices. The US, and particularly San Francisco, is much more expensive in most food items, between 50% to 100% more than in European stores, which makes some of the prices (e.g. coffee) the same as in Siberia. A notable exception to all of this were the Vodka and Bread prices you showed. Vodka was all-around cheaper. Bread was either the same or about 60% of what I would pay in the Netherlands. This brings back a lot of memories. I've been to Russia a number of times, and even the very first time, in 1996, Vodka and Bread were so cheap that we - as traveling students - were basically only eating bread and drinking vodka. I distinctly remember buying both vodka and bottled water at kiosks in Moscow and St.Petersburg, and was surprised at the time that Vodka was cheaper than Water!

    Even by American standards, those are really high prices.
    When you take into account the differential between prices for consumer goods and wages, you get a better understanding of what living standards are like.
    Btw: Although sanctions by other countries can affect the economy and living standards in the short and medium term, what will determine the long-term economic situation is how much the free market is allowed to work.

    • @petrklic7064

      American living standards are based on:
      1) US military bases in 100 countries over the world and
      2) on completely fake AAA US economy ratings
      3) on completely fake interchange course of dollar, that inflation "green toilet paper" is absolutely tot worth of 100 rubles, 80 rupees, od 600 WA francs
      4) on fact that all central banks in world are controlled from Wallstreet
      5) on US puppet governments in more that 100 countries
      5) fake inflated value of US companies stock
      While russians are on their own, no economic colonialism, only 3 foreign military bases, no pupet regimes in foreign countries.

In short, living standards are far higher in the U.S.and GDP of the state of California is about double that of Russia's. Purchasing power in the U.S is also much higher than it is in Russia..

    Your videos are a pleasure to watch! And you "went the extra mile" to show us prices in Siberia -- in Surgut. Many people commenting now want to use a comparison of food prices with average incomes to "prove" that "Russia is Suffering" and being "Punished" for disobeying the U.S.. They forget that health care is free in Russia, and rents are a quarter what they are in the U.S., or maybe even less, and taxes are low. And all of the food produced in Russia is GMO-free -- though I don't know about imported food.
    Do you have Triscuits in Russia? -- my favorite food! They are woven square crackers. Do you have instant coffee? Do you have olive oil? It is very good for health, but it has suddenly become very expensive here: I wonder why.

Avocadoes here that come from Mexico are 1.5$ Cad or 1.2 USD per small one.. and up to 4USD for the large one, Vodka bad Polish or Baltic ones sell for 20 USD per 0.7 l, and a pack of cigarettes not Carton 20 cigarettes are for around 10$ each, Fuel/Gas here is ~1.6Cad or 1.3USD per liter.. or 120 Rubles per liter and if you want to hire an electrician or plumber you pay minimum 300$ even for a small task as fixing a light bulb or a leaking valve.. while in Russia you can hire a handy man for a whole month for that price..
