Żabka is emergency shop - many people in Poland this shop a shop of the last need. You go there just because you forgot something and any other shop is closed. In Biedronka you have put loose stuff on scale, but in lidl scales are build into the cash registers, even those self-service. Cereals in Europe generally are less sweety than in USA cause of legal regulations that banned certain ingredients.

They don't really have vegetables in Polish cuisine haha they do. Most of the traditional, home cooked dinners that you get at an average Polish household consist of some protein (mostly meat), potatoes and a salad (surówka or sałatka). Moreover, Poles love soups and a lot of vegetables go into those, too. So yeah, I kind of disagree :D

If you're lactose intolerant try goat chees and milk. Bread is better in proper bakeries than in Biedronka. We have lots of vegetables in the Polish cuisine. You probably haven't tasted many home made meals yet. ;)

Great movie, and the sun is finally shining. If you want high quality bread you have to buy it from a bakery. Vegetables are best at a classic market. Did you manage to get to know Krakow better? The churches and the old town are wonderful.

Love the lady bug store. Great selection and fresh baked bread.

Like in every european country, in restaurants and shops likevthst you will.not find dishes which are real everyday dinner/ lunch. In Poland almosr every dinner contains a raw vegetable surowka or boiled vegetable jarzynka. You can buy both bit usually not togerher with the dish but in a separate box or frozen. For raw the most popular woul be: cucumbervwith cream or yogurt, carrot, betroot wirh onion, white or red cabbage, leak, or polish pickles ( not with vinegar but madevrather like kimchi). Foir hot/ boiler vegetable addition this is colifower, broccoli, carrot, beetroot ,yellow beans. Also for sandwiches made at home there is almost always some vegetable used ( tomato, polish pickle )

Good to see you’re enjoying Cracow. It’s a very relaxing and optimistic place to live. Btw, you visit the same supermarkets I do (I live in this area). Central Europe is awesome. I spent 5 years in Prague (Czechia), 2 years in Regensburg (Germany) and now it’s my 5th year in Cracow.

Yeah, there is fantastic bread in Poland. But not the one in supermarkets, which is being made of deep frozen dough on a mass scale. You need to look for more traditional bakery to be able to taste traditional products. Also in case of meat you can definitely find something of better quality, but it will be much more expensive.

Czytam te wpisy i nie mogę przestać się śmiać. Przecież te filmy oglądają Polacy. Jest tu w ogóle ktoś kto nie jest Polakiem? 😂

That "beet salad" is mostly sold in glass jars 😉

Aldis has been my go to here in the US. Great prices

Wes, since you are lactose intolerant, older cheeses have less lactose, fresh cheese like mozzarella has more lactose. Also lactase enzyme pills work really well.

Honestly, I wouldn't dare to eat bread which could last for longer than few days because it would mena It was packed with chemistry up to the roof, that could be really harmful. This is the product that you buy only fresh in Poland because this is the only proper way how the bread should be eaten. You even would not find in Biedronka or bakery bread that wasn't made the same day.

You also dont have to weigh vegetables they will do it for you at the register

Did you say we don't have many vegetables in polish cuisine?

@WheresWes you can freeze bred in freezer. I usually buy the same bread you pointed - "fitness" is the best one. Just cut in half and take a peace out 20-30 minutes before using. Half is ok for 2 meals so one in the morning and remaining for supper. Never buy already minded meat (unless they mince it when you are freshly) otherwise you never know whats inside. Another tip. dont buy meat in biedronka. Yes its cheap there but their meat is full of chemistry. Wow, you spend a lot for groceries. For me + my gf we spend 200-250pln per week in total.

Self-checkout counters have built-in scales, so you don't need to weigh items somewhere else. Just place, for example, the carrots on the counter and select from the menu what you've bought.

Hi, we have but in general people don't buy in bulk. It make sense in a countryside but in a city with supermarket every 5 min walk, not really. I have ~5 in a 15min distance. Cities and suburbs in Europe are planned different.

You would need a larger place to live to be able to store bulk, and people living in the city usually don’t have such big places. Plus we like fresh food so we buy the amount we plan on eating in the next several days, not longer.

Also, it's a joke comparing American "food" to real food that we in Poland have access to. Try shopping at a local market place, butcher's or bakery, not just the cheapest chain stores.
