I cracked up when you said people are nosy for watching and liking grocery haul videos. Dang, why is this so true, and so me?? I’m nosy and I like to eat!!
I just love to listen to you and watch your vids! Ive been a vegetarian since I was in high school and will be 40 this year. My two kiddos are growing up vegetarian, but I have been wanting to go vegan for years. Being a single mom with a few health issues, its been difficult, but you make it look easy! You lift my spirits, especially during this time in quarantine!! Stay well!! 💙💙💙
…but you were out of syrup! I know the struggle of being syrupless in an isolated world. Please tell me that you have acquired syrup since then!
(For real though, enjoyed the video!)
Word to the wise, beans are starches 👍
Thank you Rose 🍵🍵🍵
Am tight with the no-vehicle life and having to be so careful with my shopping. Going to u-picks / finding local farmers or co-ops that deliver this year may be a helpful option. Also could try a window garden or a few planters with herbs or something. Gotta get creative and a little crazy or nah.
Cucumbers last waaay longer on the counter!
potato roots are not disgusting , they are what give us more potatos !!! , you should cut that part carefully and grow them in your backyard , or someone elses garden ! if you dont have one !
haha i dunno why i get so triggered by them! maybe one day, Ill have a garden!
For the vegans
Sadly apples don’t last in my house my son will eat a whole bag in 2 days and a pack of strawberries in minuets 😭
Are you not wiping down groceries?
You say ‘produce’ really funny 🤣🤣
More VEGAN GROCERY HAULS –
SUPER budget friendly grocery guide (when I lived in the UK) –
You can freeze the blueberries you bought for smoothies. Put them on a sheet pan in the freezer and shake after an hour. Youll have perfectly frozen berries you can store in a Tupperware or jar!
Yes, I put potatoes in the fridge.
Does anyone else like eating frozen edamame? They taste really good frozen, its a good summer snack.
Excellent grocery haul and I love my beans and had some bean hummus made with butter beans and black beans instead of chickpeas. It was covered on my sweet potato with a mixed leaf salad.
I basically buy the same groceries and I live on another continent. It’s just not as expensive here 😅
I cant get the image out of my mind of the potatoes I have stored in my basement growing roots xDD
omg literally reading this comment gave me goosebumps. this is how much these things trigger me lol
Where I’m from that would probably cost around $225ish (could be higher).. lol and that’s why many of us plant our own food at home.
Its a lot of $$ for apples — I bought 3 pounds of organic apples for $3.20-3.30
Can you make a video about wraps please?? I used to hate them but now I’m so into them and need some ideas.
Great video. I need to get groceries .been craving salads and fruit.
$2 for an apple?! were they fiji? lol looks like you got ripped off…i made the mistake of buying 4 blood oranges for over $5 at whole foods so i know your pain
I always keep spinach in the freezer to add to cooked meals and smoothies 👍🏻
How do you use bok choy? Its new to me
Ooh, those bokchoy are bomb in doenjangguk. I eat them at least once a week
Great video 😍 its so crazy how you have to explain everything because you can feel the negative comments coming 😑
Do you and your roommate get different grocery?
Now that i go grocery shopping only once a week i calculated that i eat about 3 kg of fresh fruit per week by myself… but i dont buy so many greens, i wonder how you manage to eat all of this before it goes bad! I also noticed prices have beeing increasing here in France (like 5€ for a kg of basic tomatoes wtf) but 2$ per apple really?! Thats crazy expensive!
Yasss this looks great!!!: so fresh girl🍉🍊🍒🥥🍆🍅🥦🍅🧄🌰🥦🌶
Always smart to account for whats in pantry and hardy veggies
I don’t know if this is just me, but does anyone feel weird about buying fresh produce rn bc of everything that’s happening? Do y’all just rinse things with water still?
I felt weird about it too. What I did was, anything I was gonna be eating raw, I bought in packages (I know not good for environment, but what are you gonna do at this moment) and anything that wasnt packaged, I plan on cooking!
i cant believe you walked 4 blocks carrying everything…next time bring a friend to help you
Super random question, but I just moved to Calgary and I know you are from there. Have you found anywhere to buy beyond sausage? Thanks!
Red bell peppers have more vitamin C
Does edamame count as a vegetable? Because that would be 3 bags. :p I wont even comment on the 8 dollar apples! -.-
Haha is this a call out?? It was shelved away from the other frozen veggies so I assumed it didnt count as frozen veggies 🤔 I was asking myself the same question. And I also judge myself on the 8$ apples
The only way for potatoes to last in my house is to refrigerate them.
Don’t refrigerate raw potatoes it produces a cancer-causing agent when you then cook them. Once they’re cooked you can refrigerate them. It’s the refrigeration temperature range not the freezing range to my understanding but you should check into it.
lol its best to store potatoes in a dark, cool space. this is the same way to store onions however you are supposed to store them far away from each other because of the chemicals they release. weird, i know! And the little eyes the potatoes grow are totally safe and you can just pick them off or peel it
I loved seeing your grocery haul! Please do more. About the potatoes, I recommend keeping them in a cool, dark place (such as under the kitchen sink). Make sure to keep them away from onions, which will cause the potatoes to sprout more quickly. The regular potatoes will sprout eventually but sweet potatoes tend to last longer. Some farmers I talked to at the farmers market said that you can store sweet potatoes for months. Their harvest was in the fall, but they were selling sweet potatoes at the market as late as June.
Here is a tip for for the peppers. Wash them thoroughly and then I cut the peppers into strips and put them into Ziploc baggies and into freezer. They last a long time and are ready to use.
@Cheap Lazy Vegan Yes you can add to tofu scramble, soups, etc. I think if you just set them out to thaw, they would still be ok to eat on its own.🙂
Whaaaa but you cant eat them fresh then, I presume? But would be great for cooking?
Whats with that broccoli without a stem?? 😮
Broccoli crowns haha
I was surprised to see the Lindt chocolate because that exact kind is not vegan for me here in Austria (contains dairy). I wonder why the ingredients are different when its the same brand.
love.
Yeah, currently in my local fruit and veg store in Ireland I get 10 apples for €2 which is about €3 Canadian… but when I was in Iceland it was like €2 per apple, because of everything being imported.
Yup I find groceries in Canada to be more expensive because everything is shipped from afar haha
Just converted what the euro price would be for all this, around 80 euro! Makes me realise how cheap food is here in ireland
Would love to see some recipes with your bok choy!! 🥬
Dark chocolate and peanut butter tastes like heaven!!!
If I don’t find frozen berries, I buy fresh ones and freeze them! And I buy groceries from nofrils, it’s really cheap! I bought a little less than this for $65
I think key to a successful vegan diet is GROWING YOUR OWN FOOD. We cant really trust the nutrition in store bought vegetables the same way we couldnt for meat. Modern store bought is bad. Private Permaculture is the way
I chop celery and freeze it.. ( Blanche first for 10 secs in boiling water then rinse in cold water , drain well )no good for salads but great for soups and stews.. also, today I bought a pack of frozen crushed garlic! It was in little cubes.. about 60 cubes for 65p ( uk) bargain!
Going to try the celery trick today hehe thanks for the video going back to the grocery store new Vegan here wish me luck lol
Rose, it looks like you raided my N.S. kitchen! 😉Same brands, same items. I’m thinking you have bigger muscles than me though…four blocks!?! That’s a haul AND cardio workout in one 😄
Can you please do a grocery haul/ recipes with the groceries. Your food always looks delish.
Great video 😍
Dont microwave your beans, fry them up in a stir fry.
As far as Im concerned potatoes belong in the frdge
Grocery stores actually have a surplus of food right now cuz most restaurants arent getting as much business.
Just be careful youre cleaning your produce properly. Search grocery shopping covid19 theres a dr that allows exactly how to clean. Theres probably a small chance but you never know if the person who put your food out coughed or sneezed on it. They also say it sticks to your hair and clothes just be cleaning stuff whatever you can. Maybe most think Im being over cautious but I have asthma and had thr swine flu 🤷♀️ being vegan has done nothing for my bad immune system 😂
Wow so many bages
can we have your moms radish kimchi and cucumber kimchi recipe? it would be fun to make during this quarantine period!
I chop up my bell peppers and freeze them. And I use them in pasta, soups, stews and stir frys
New to your channel and also wanting to start plant base eating. ? Is plant based the same as vegan?
@Taliesyn Jax thank you for clearing that up for me, I get really confused sometimes figuring out the best diets
Melanie Litz plant based refers to the diet, wheres vegan refers to the mindset. Someone could be plant-based mainly for health, but someone is vegan for ethical or environmental reasons.
Surely if theres a risk of an allergic reaction due to the presence of milk it wouldnt be vegan? If theres cross contamination of milk in the product its not vegan like when meat and non-meat products are cooked on the same grill the non-meat alternative isnt vegetarian.
My favorite apple is the Jonagold. They are tart and sweet at the same time and are really juicy.
When I buy tortillas, especially if I get a large count bag or multiple bags from being on sale, I separate them by putting wax paper between serving portions before freezing them. That way I can take out just the amount I need for a meal. And even if I forgot to take some out before hand I can take some out right before I start cooking because they will defrost quickly.
@Cheap Lazy Vegan I dont think theyre available until May, thats usually when I find them for the first time of their season. Which is from May to October. When I lived with my sister I would have to threaten death and dismemberment if anyone ate one, lol. I would get a few and tuck them away in the fruit drawer and hope my nephew wouldnt find them. Nothing was more disappointing than going to get that delicious treat than to discover it was gone. But now that I live on my own I dont have to worry about it. Thats why I started separating the tortillas. I could find a 2 or 3 dozen count pack of the soft taco size, or sometimes find them on sale. At my sisters there was always tortillas on hand so I didnt have to worry about them possibly getting moldy. But on my own I do. So I separate them and put them in a gallon size Ziploc freezer bag. Take out 2 the night before for breakfast wraps/burritos, or 2 in the morning for lunch or dinner.
thats so smart!!!! I never thoguht of separating the wraps before freezing because thats definitely an issue when you just want to have that one wrap XD and I dont think Ive tried jonagold apples! Must try : )
Where’s the maple syrup? End the Canadian Tragedy!
Love your videos! Great content and never dull! Lol! How to usr bok choy? Can u share some ideas? Never have had this green before? Thank you from Minnesota!
As a Canadian I can concur – most kinds of apples are very expensive in Canada! Apples were the cheap fruit when I was a kid
The trick with putting the celery in water also works on limp salad. Putting it in cold water (and some vinegar, at least thats how I learned it from my mum, although Im not sure its necessary) makes it fresh and crisp again😊
The apples were so expensive cuz they are out of season
In England I forget other people call Muffins ‘English Muffins’. And I completely agree, grocery deliveries are very common here in London, so much so that all of the bookings were unavailable for a long time after the quarantine annoucement (23rd March for us) x
And put the water of the céleri in your soup. Vitamin ! ;-))
Good to see you Rose !
Please STAY SAFE AND WELL,this flippin VIRUS IS NO JOKE. I Just came from a friends Memorial Talk it was broadcast over the phone her family couldnt have a proper funeral as the Funeral Home would have been over packed to say the least. Not looking forward to my other 2 friends funeral talks when they take place.
Girl be Safe especially when shopping,I cant even begin to talk about the Jerks weve encountered at the markets we go to , but I am trying NOT TO WISH HARM TO ANYONE !
Even the Rude Coughing on you , touching you people.
Take CARE EVERYONE,STAY SAFE !
WATCH OUT FOR ASSES !
Yikes! That was expensive compared to most states in the US
Bok Choy video please!
Lmao spaghetti is my least favorite pasta
How do you wash your conventional veggies to minimize pesticides? Do you use anything special?
Please record a video of meals you making using this 😊
I’m ashamed to ask this, but can anyone tell me what Bok Choy 🥬 tastes like? Do you put it in stir frys???
If cabbage and kale had a baby, it would be bok choy (maybe cabbage and spinach for the baby bok choy).
Veggie Lovin Accountant it’s similar to like a cabbage? But smaller and the leaves at the end are very thin and silky.. super delicious in soups and stir frys! No reason to b ashamed btw:) no such thing as a stupid question
You should get a basket cart for your groceries, like this
The peppers you can cut up and put in a zipper bag and throw them in the freezer!
Thats quite a haul to carry 4 blocks😬 You should get one of those wheeled carts or a wagon to take with you to the grocery store
I loveeeeee all your hauls. But it would really help if you could also show the prices…
Gosh, I am carrying home groceries for 2 weeks and a half, walking for 1.5km and its a massive struggle. I am developing muscles like The Rock 🤣 but supermarkets give me anxiety right now, so if I go twice per month its already too much! Worth the struggle
Looks like you got stocked up 👍🏻
How on Earth did you ever manage to carry all that??? 😮🤪😁😂
Seeing that you bought Canadian products, and seeing the Compliments brand, I know you went to a chain store I avoid because of the prices. Yikes! I found places in my city where I need to walk a bit more or take the bus, but Im more cheap than lazy, so I get a bit more stuff for the same price as you. I mean, I get Daiya pizzas for 8$ that are not – I repeat, not – about to expire. And no, its not a chain store, so if youre not in my city, you will have to hunt down the same type of store. And no, the current virus situation isnt getting in the way of me taking the bus for my food haul. Im safe and careful.
I never know what to do with bok choy. I always see it at the store and Ive never had it but I really want to try it. But when I see it I always think well what am I gonna do with it.
I loveeeeeee bok choy myself…yum!!!!
Lol I’ve been meaning to make my own hummus for like a month🤣🤣🤣 ummm yeah gotta get around to that!
That no car life. I had to go to the grocery store with a suitcase because I knew I wouldnt be able to carry it all in my back pack, dragged home a suitcase full of rice and beans like a total lunatic haha
HAHAHA I love it!!! Im gonna show up with a suit case now 😂😂😂
Lazy Girl Tries Stuff 😂😂😂
I’ll definitely be going vegan once I move out !! Love all ur videos
Rose, can you make vegan queso ( spelling!?) we don’t have it here in the uk…
What are the creamy noodles in your intro?
Dont put tomatoes in the fridge. They lose taste and texture.
@Cheap Lazy Vegan no tomatoes… potatoes are fine.
You mean potatoes? 😉
I definitely missed these videos. Id love to see more grocery hauls
Yeah I definitely stick my potatos in the fridge. I tried Candices hummus recipe recently and it is so good, its just like store bought. Takes a bit of effort but you know, endless hummus so win! I have frozen brussels sprouts at home now but Im unsure how to use them, do you have any tips?
wow, you got everything for $87?! lucky
Looks like you went to Safeway…lol 😂
Great Haul! <3 Impressive how you could carry all this stuff alone. o_O
Thats so much cheaper than American Groceries. At Aldis Groceries you would get about half that food for the same price. Im moving to Canada to save a buck. 😉
Realy? I thought American would be cheaper!!
In springtime you can keep potatoes in a cool dark place, because they sprout. In autumn and winter you shouldnt have to. But always keep them in the dark. 🙂
I hate may contain statements. Everytime I think we can eat something yummy it says may contain something the family is allergic to.
Wow that’s some interesting stuff……I love your grocery haul videos
Love,love the grocery hauls.I guess we wanna know what products are good as well but Im definitely quite nosey.Thank you and I much appreciate your channel.☺
Teehee thanks for watching!!
