MERCADITO MERLIOT El Salvador Vlog - Come produce shopping with us!
Join us as we buy our weekly produce in El Salvador at the amazing Mercadito Merliot! You won't believe how much healthy organic produce we were able to score for just $15! I love living in El Salvador and food is a big part of that. It took me a while to figure out how to make my own food from scratch instead of just popping a frozen lean cuisine in the microwave but I can't go back now my wallet my body and my family are so much happier!
I just adore when Luna gets so excited about the "white broccoli" the girl is like her momma... We have yet to meet a vegetable we don't love 😁

I forgot how easy it is to be zero waste back home if you bring your own produce bags and bulk bags. I wish we had farmer’s market year round here in Boston.

I used to LIVE in El Salvador & my El Salvadoran hubby of 28 years is still there. I didn’t fall in love with El Salvador - I’m from Canada & that is where I am now. I was researching a new place to book when me & our daughters go down there again to visit (just waiting till it’s safe to do so) - we always stay at Roca Sunzal. I came across NAWi Beach Resort which then lead me to u! Lol. It’s been interesting to watch & I’ll subscribe to your channel. I have some El Sal videos too on my channel.
