The job of our President and the government at large is to antagonize other countries and have an ever present boogeyman. That is how they consolidate power and economic power. People are so afraid they are willing to send their kids to the meat grinder, and pay the government to do so

Thanks for the video, my friend. I used to help run a hostel here in the USA and we used to get a lot of Russian students here for the summer. I became fascinated with the culture and them. Still have many of them as friends to this day. Always wondered about stuff like the everyday lives of Russians. And this gives me a good glimpse into it. Always wanted to know this very stuff. Shows me that it isn't so different over there at all. You're doing your part in promoting peace because a lot of people seem to have wrong views of what people in other countries besides the good ol USA are like. I try to tell them that they have families, jobs, drive cars, worry about bills, etc, just like we do here. Great video!!!!

Thanks for letting us see what your life is like. And your English is excellent. There seem to be many more similarities than differences. Food selection is excellent.

I could watch you point out foods and convert the cost into American dollars for hours. It's strangely fascinating.

Excellent episode, Sergei, and good job getting it all recorded, Sergei! A tour through a supermarket is one of the best indicators of what life is like in your country. I am favourably impressed by the selection, the prices and the space. Thanks, guys.

This guy is so charming and enthusiastic. I never thought I would enjoy a 13-minute tour of a supermarket. Great job! It makes me want to visit Russia.

This is so interesting! Other cultures are so fascinating to me!! Thank you!!

Thanks for making this, I like seeing videos of everyday life in other countries. The prices are low, but not as low as I expect them to be. A few of the items seem to cost more than US items like the Jack Daniels. I always thought vodka would be a lot cheaper than it is in the US, but its really not that cheap in Russia.

Just found your channel. I love it! Thank you so much for sharing all the places especially your Russian supermarkets. I saw a youtube video awhile back that showed a run down no food market in Russia. I felt bad for Russia and thought it was a place I would not want to go. It was scary! So far everything you have shown only proves Russia is a fine place to live. I love the culture there. This supermarket is bigger than most in my hometown. Greetings from Atlanta Georgia :)

That's so similar to stores here in Michigan that it reaches Uncanny Valley territory. Because it's really close, but just a little different, and that's unsettling. ^_^ Even the prices are about what I'd expect to pay down at the Meijer a few blocks away. Except the good vodka was a lot cheaper. The fresh BREAD and produce was cheaper, too. Especially the bread, you can GET good, fresh bread here, but it costs way more.

Greetings from Finland. I just found your channel a couple of days ago and I absolutely love your reality show. Keep up the the good work! :)

Two thumbs up for Sergei one and two! Very interesting...... Great job, guys!

Sergei, if you want to open some "Western Eyes" to the foods of Russia then take your camera to the Markets, especially in the Krasnodar region. I spent the equivalent of $10 Australian and bought enough food for my fiancee and I for 3 days. The food was delicious and the marketeers would allow you to taste test - They were very friendly.

This was really interesting. I'm looking forward to watching more from you. I have always wondered what it's like in Russia, day to day living, shopping etc. I love the price of bread! 80 cents?! We just paid $4.99 for a loaf! :) It hasn't always been this way has it?

Very fascinating and just overall informative, I find your reporting very intriguing. Keep up the great work!!!

Thanks for the stroll through the supermarket. I really did enjoy!

Impressive big supermarket. Not too keen on selling the live fish but packaging all the bread is a good idea.

Very interesting and enjoyable to watch. Of course, here in USA we are not shown many good things about Russia, so I am so happy to find your channel. I love learning about other countries and cultures and have loved visiting other countries. Of course now with rising prices, rising taxes and NOT rising wages I can no longer afford vacations let alone travel to other countries so I travel via internet(but cannot meet the people, see the museums or try the food this way lol. I did find the packaging colors rather strange. I noticed most are either greenish/blue, orange or white. Are these packaged by state run companies? Product packaging here has wild and crazy, chaotic colors by comparison. I am looking forward to watching your other videos.

Red color draws attention to the product. Cold colors (white, blue, green) are associated with freshness. Perhaps that is why these colors are used for packaging.

Real Russia I LOVED your video. It is very obvious to me the amount of work & enthusiasm you put into your show! I will be doing my own show in the near future. One of the concepts I believe in to build a better world is to start children at the youngest of ages from different countries doing videos for each other to help solve their unique problems. That way they grow up virtual: friends, brothers, something substantive together. What do you think?

I have been to Russia on two occasions and both times I was amazed. The first when I was very young shopping was very interesting. You go to the counter say bread you pick what you want then you get a ticket then in the centre of the shop you pay and get a receipt then go back and pick up your bread and so on. And no bag no paper to wrap up in nothing you where just handed it. The second trip was a time of transition but still I was amazed at how it had changed very different and much the same as here in Australia.

yannick van niel Prices are higher but earning are also much higher in America. The high prices stems from the high cost of labor and any tax burdens. Russians have a flat tax which makes things simpler and the taxes less burdensome. In addition Putin has a difficult time collecting taxes bringing the prices down further with respect to people wages. This is a high end grocery and prices are going to be higher than haggling on the street but also more convenient.
