    I discovered your channel recently and I watch it to practice my English too. I am French and I find it so funny to see foreigners being fascinated by French shops. Once I was shopping and I came across an American family (I think lol) who were marvelling at the yoghurts xD I never really realised how lucky we were to have so many good products in France. I was born here and I'm used to always shopping, eating healthy actually became normal and a habit for me. It's when I travel that I realise the differences and also that we don't realise how lucky we are, we complain too much! But I find it fascinating to see the differences in culture, I would love to travel to the US one day, the skyscrapers have always impressed me! And maybe I'll find some unusual products in their shop too lol

    Things that I found when I was in France was shocking to me in a way. The grocery store I went to when I was in Grenoble 9 years ago was similarly big and they had a huge yogurt aisle with a lot of unflavored yogurt. You don't find that kind of an aisle here in the US and the yogurt sold here is made with ingredients that shouldn't even be in our bodies to begin with. Another thing that shocked me was the cheese, especially ones labeled "lait cru" (raw milk). Raw milk is illegal in the US and that was very cool to try some of those cheeses and not get any illness from it as our stupid country claimed a long time ago. Since my experience in France, I have been drinking my coffee black and have learned to eat quality ingredients and read labels at the grocery store.

    I had my favourite cheese here in the States for the longest time - gourmandise with cherries - but haven't been finding it for the past few years. Asked around, and found out that the U/S has been banning its import because it isn't pasteurised. Unfortunate that it isn't made with pasteurized cheese..

French supermarkets do Christmas so much better than ours in the UK do - ours are just piles of cheap sweets, whereas in France there are those too, but also the lovely selection boxes you showed, and the hampers with jams or wine and paté (so useful as presents for one's elderly mother, who loves that kind of thing), and so on.... to say nothing of the smoked salmon (okay, you can get that here, too) or the foie gras with its gingerbread and onion or fig chutney..... I do hope that by next Christmas we will be able to travel again.

In UK we have plain flour or self-raising flour - and a few oddities like cornflour or wholemeal flour - all in all it occupies maybe 10 foot (3m) of aisle. A typical French supermarket will have a whole aisle devoted to flour - loads of different types for different breads/cakes/pastries etc.... Amazing....

    I experienced this in reverse recently. I'm French and the first time I went shopping to get ingredients for baking and making a cake in London I couldn't believe the small selection of baking stuff (including cooking chocolate... I could never even find real praliné and plain 60% cooking chocolate was so expensive 😅). I went to three supermarkets and combed through the aisles of Waitrose several times, certain I had missed the right one, before I had to admit defeat. I was really surprised. It hadn't crossed my mind things like that could be hard to find on the other side of the tunnel.

    Thanks, Diane. I love wandering around foreign grocery stores just to see what is similar or different. When we were in France in 2017, we stopped at at GIGANTIC Carreforre”(sp?) somewhere in the south of France. It was ginormous- bigger than the Costco here. They had everything. If they didn’t have it, you don’t need it. Some employees were on roller skates. They had fresh game - definitely authentic because the unskinned leg and hoof were there...... The whole place was fascinating. We got hopelessly lost in the dang parking lot - getting out was frustrating, but also hilarious. A tour of one of those giant stores would be interesting.

    Foie gras is usually eaten around year's end holidays, like christmas and new years eve. There's the cold version from conserves -the best being sterilized glass jars. Watch out if its actual complete foie gras and not mixed with a lower product like mousse de canard of stuff like that. Typically served as the entry dish with roasted toasts, maybe a pinch of salt if you dont find it salty enough and either chutneys (there are frenched variants like chutney de pommes du Calvados) or marmelade d'oignons and white wine. I lack culinary knowledge to perfectly describe the hot version, and anyway have eaten the cold one more often. You can do your own foie gras from a foie bought at the butcher and it can be better than any conserve would.

    FYI foie gras is eaten mostly during winter, because its made from goose liver: they usually fill their stomach themselves only at that of the year (I mean we force them, but they do it naturally too). Also, if by typical french food you're afraid to approach you mean, frog legs, snails, beef tongue/brain, etc... We don't usually eat them either :D From all of the "weird" french food, snails might be the only one "lots of french" have tasted (and it's awesome because of the sauce, garlic, parsley and butter, the snails themselves don't have much taste)... As for the rest of it, pretty uncommun even for us !

    I think I got just as emotional about being back in a French supermarket via video as I get from all the beautiful photos of the architecture, countryside etc in France. Cointreau flavoured cream - that's definitely a first for me. I am still surprised everytime I see the huge range of chocolate flavoured breakfast cereals in French supermarkets. I suspect it is not limited to supermarkets in France and that we in Australia with 2-3 varieties are the odd ones out. I love this sort of format with the brief intro and wrap up with well edited filming and interesting content. I liked that it was snappy and focussed particularly on the theme of Christmas. I create to dos to watch your longer videos but I never seem to get around to them. When I see anything above about 13 mins I think I don't have time to watch now - do it later. I have so many videos in my "To watch later" part of my library. :) Thanks again for this video. I will share it within the FB group I help admin. The members will absolutely ❤it!!!

    There is just something homey about grocery and pharmacy shopping!. Your tours are great, thanks for taking us along. The Maillie Cornichones have always been my favourite pickle. I live in Canada and think it is a staple here. They really make entertaining easy with their edible selection trays. The cheese looked so interesting. Happy Holidays and Joyeux Noël to you and yours Diane.

    I was amazed at the deli section and the cheese section in the store. I was in a small town, St. Zacharie, and the local supermarche focused on a different cheese each week. They had a load of information about the cheese, where it was from, it's history etc. One thing I had difficulty with was milk. Confusing, all the kinds and types. The deli section was very different, with rabbits and more "raw" looking items. Great video. I hope you will go to some brocantes and vide grenier.

Different flavors of Pringles were a big hit too.

    Awesome! Great share! Yes, over here in Tx. We have the HEB grocery store, and you have to weigh you produce, coffee, and bulk spices on the scales and put the stickers on. But if you forget, the cashier has a booklet filled will all the codes and they will weigh them for you and put in the code and it will price it right for you. Great share, Happy Holidays! I have tried foie gra in culinary school and found it buttery rich on a cracker with some cheese. Very interesting flavors.
