Your mom has the best smile...smiles for miles. Also a great idea to keep producing vids of your travels. I was worried at first you were not going to be around, like an old friend leaving town. Your humor is what makes it interesting. Honestly I'm surprised you haven't been picked up by a major channel.

Having visited both Germany and US, as a Brit, I have to say that Germany is far ahead than the US in terms of quality of produce and food overall. America has a lot of choice but it's mostly tripe. Germany lacks choice but does things well.

Agreed. I lived half my life in the USA before I moved back to the UK, and the produce in US supermarkets is horrible. Most of the produce we ate in South Carolina either came from our garden or from the neighbourhood farmer's market. The shite they sell in the supermarket is barely fit to feed animals.

Not sure what you were shopping for or where, but the US has incredible food and loads of organic farms and produce. Most commercial supermarkets are not the best to buy fresh food from, we know that, but there are lots of independent markets which are terrific.

I love this German grocery store because it has everything American stores don't. I laughed all the way through the video. This German obviously spent time in America and has an enormous sense of humor. Dude you just won a subscriber. 👍😎🤣🏆🇺🇸

Thanks GiV! Loved the video!

She is so sweet, im glad you went to visit her 💗

Your mom is so adorable. I love how you interact together 🧡

love the disclaimer at the beginning, good advise!

Great video my friend and I love your mom keep doing what you’re doing !

I just learned that we're getting seriously ripped off in America. Most of the prices on the food that was shown are 100%+ higher in the Land of the Free. What blows my mind is that Germany has to import most of that fresh produce!

They produce a lot of fresh stuff themselves and a lot is from other European countries because of the different climates of the countries (and because of supply chain and production costs)

And you have to compare the prices to what people earn

German grocery stores don't have to pay unionised employees to bag groceries and collect the trolleys from the parking lot. That helps keep food costs down.

If you've lived anywhere in Europe, you know U.S. consumers of groceries are ripped off BIGLY!

Thank you for sharing your culture and your family with us. Much respect.

OMG. I loved this video so much. I am originally from Culver City - Venice Beach area and for you to share this was amazing. I enjoyed your humor, how you shared the products, the comparisons, and really appreciated you pronouncing the words as I am/we are looking/reading/seeing the package/product. Enjoy your time with your mom. Safe travels and I'm looking forward to many more videos.(Wished I got to travel with you! :) )

I could watch this day-to-day life in Germany kind of stuff all day!!! I love it when you do German videos! Kind of tired of Venice, ha ha. I hope you're making a ton of them while you're there!

That was fun. Your mom is sweet. She is buying all this stuff so she can cook for you. She’s excited to have you home.

OMG GIV..the prices r SOO much cheaper there than here in NC, and it looks SOO much nicer there also, 🤔I wouldnt mind living there in Germany !
