  • Welcome back to Drifting South!
    This week I want to share a few tips Ive learned in the three months of living here in Baja California Sur, Mexico. We've shopped for groceries in many towns, big and small along the way down. There were a few things that surprised me when I went into my first "super" like the fact that the eggs aren't refrigerated.
    Mexico is pretty traditional country and the grocery stores are a reflection of that. Canada has so many options available on a regular basis and part of that has to do with the amount of influence from all different cultures. the small towns we've been visiting are supplying food for Mexicans and the local products available. It's been a lot of fun learning how to shop here and trying new things and Im excited to share it with you!
    If you have any questions about grocery stores in Mexico I am happy to answer them, though I am not a pro yet! Give me a couple more years :)
    Thanks so much for watching and take care until next time!
    Jenny

    My comment has gone missing.
    Wounder how that happens.
    I admire how you Chiefs can source and pick such great ingredients. It makes your dishes next level.

      Hi Charlie!! I hope you’re doing well!! Good ingredients make ALL the difference in anything we cook. One thing I’m especially enjoying here are the tomatoes. I find they have such a different taste in Canada. In my mind they are almost fishy. But here they taste like real tomatoes.
      We are in a new town now and their produce market is on Saturday so I’m really excited for that as there aren’t any good grocery stores here. So far I’ve only found bananas, onions, avocado and peppers.
      Thanks so much for reposting your comment. I’m not sure what happened either.
      Take care

    Hola Jenny and Brett. Sure is cheaper with groceries, and you got a lot. BUT, it was great watching you hook onto a fish and work together to land it. See you next video.🥰

      I love grocery shopping here. It feels so good to fill a cart and not pay over $300. The fishing is always so fun! That yellowtail was so delicious also!! Thanks so much for watching!!!

    Wonderful video. Small markets with Natural fruits and vegies, , , , , ,what a concept eh. I'm sure the flavor was just fantastic. It's going to be tough to have to get back to all the processed foods. I'm glad you guys are having such a good trip. I hope that there wer not too many bad issues. Be safe
