Most of the prices you've shown were literally half of what they are today only a couple of years ago. I remember 1 liter of milk still being 90-100 RSD in 2022.
You can still find in some stores ,like Trnava promet stores in my town are 104 din for 1.5% 1l and generally many stuff is generally cheaper 30% then Idea or Maxi or Lidl but that stores are only in central Serbia .But yes most stuff is 50% more expensive then just few years ago
Inflation killin us. But, in hipermarket in my vilage, around 150km southern of Belgrade, prices are something like, Belgrade minus 10, 15 even 20% sometimes.
it's nice to see when someone comments on your country from another point of view, with so much effort and desire to show everything as it really is. it would be nice if someone showed you traditional Serbian food, so you could see how delicious it really is. Great job ❤
Hello. This is a supermarket typical for the central part, if you go to any larger store outside the city centre, you will see the difference. Mustard - way more selection choices; cereal - we do eat them but not as much as Northern Americans; produce is more or less what you get in this store, but MUCH better to go to a green market (some good in the centre as well)
We love green markets! We prefer to shop there for produce, etc., but wanted to show what it's like in a grocery store where we are staying :) It's like that for us too, grocery stores outside of Toronto's city center (where we are from) are usually larger with much more selection. Thanks for watching!
The bakery section is still mass production. They prepare the dough in one place, like a factory, and then they usually freeze it and ship to the stores where it's unfrozen and baked.
We don't have the habit ingrained in our culture of having to eat cereals for breakfast. I think this is the case in all of Europe. Pastry (bakery products) is what is mandatory for breakfast to us, like e.g. in France and Italy ...
Differs a little bit to northern Europe, here people usually eat oatmeal for breakfast. If not it's usually the same as southern Europeans. Cereals pretty much only kids eat :D
Keep in mind that only recently we can buy pretty much everything in the store, but a couple of generations back people could choose only from locally produced food, so if you didn't grow it, you didn't have it. In this part of Europe due to climate and terrain, we always had a very good mix of local crops, meats and fish, so eating habits come from that.@@DDtch6669
02:47 MILKA is brand of some swiss company. They have factories all around the world. The most MILKas chocolades in Serbia coming from german and austrian factories. The mmost famous serbian chocolades or chocolaths...?, my english, is bran called ŠTARK. Factory SOKO ŠTARK, Belgrade. Besides it: PIONIR, from Subotica, SWISS LYON, from Gornji Milanovac, small town in central Serbia. HISAR, from small town in southern Serbia called Porkuplje but they relocated their headquarters in Belgrade i think? a bunch bunch of smaller companies, usualy fammily business...
You are very wrong for Milka. Milka is no longer Swiss brend for a very long time. And is BS quality for long. It's a part of the American Kraft corporation and now part of American Mondelez corp (Kraft is a parent company) . And most of Milka products in Serbia coming from factories in Poland, Slovakia, Romania or other Eastern European countries with cheap labor. There is no a single Milka product from Germany or Austia in Serbia because it would cost 10 euros for a 80gr chocolate. American Kraft owns almost everything you eat.
@@visi_inspektor_besevic About Milka from : Poland, Romania... I can say i do not agry with you. The most MILKA chocola..s i eated or eeat.. sorry my english. The most are frrom Germany, some from Switzerland(SHOP and GO stores and open markets in Serbia). Price goes from 1,5 usd per 100g up to 2 usd. Depends what is inside.
@@hypatiatv421 Check the label of every Milka products in Serbia and you will find out where it comes from. Of course that Milka is cheaper in Germany because people in Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia etc. paid the price difference. Plus Germany is in EU same as Poland, Slovakia etc. So they to not have to pay custom tax, other high taxes etc. Anyway, Milka products are totaly worthless SRANJE! There are way better sweets than Milka.
Pizza Ketchup is for making pizza not to put it over pizza but for the very layer of tomato sauce that is essential for the layering of ingredients before the oven... I saw one comment here that told how it's akward to put ketchup on top of pizza... pro thing is pelat for that but that is only if you made it home or in pizza restaurant but home making thing is pizza ketchup that can be used for the fill and also after it's prepared you can use it on top of course. Tomato sauce is one of essential things of every pizza basically.
Nice vid guys! Pizza ketchup is just ketchup with oregano and maybe some other herbs or spices. A lot of people like to put kethcup on their pizza. Mustard isn't hard to find, but usually the packaging is on the smaller side. You can find mayo in 1kg buckets if you ever need that though lol
Wow...Mexicans also put ketchup on pizza...sorry but no thanks 🤦♀ haha as an American it is very strange 😁but some of us do put ketchup on eggs...maybe also a bit odd...I only like ketchup on fries or certain fried foods. ☺
@@suzannstrohmaier2578 I always put mayonnaise on Pizza ,i know its not healthy but is how i like .And 40 years i eat only one mayonnaise and that is "Tommy majonez"
@@dzonikg No, mayo on pizza is wrong...just plain wrong...mayo is for sandwiches and sandwiches only. 😆 🤣 I do put pepper flakes on my pizza though....🤔
@@suzannstrohmaier2578 it is very common in the balkans for people to put mayo and ketchup on their pizza. I agree, it's pretty strange... but only because this is not what you are used to based on where you were born. The world is different in so many places! It's fun.
Every supermarket seems to have its unique layout. There's no standard rule for how the milk and yogurt sections should be organized; it all depends on the store's size and design. Some supermarkets even offer milk in cans, tubes, or bags, although these items may not be available everywhere. Each supermarket has its own set of partnerships and business strategies, so you might find a brand in one store that's completely absent in another. We also prioritize fresh food, so when we need to buy mass-produced items like sour cream, shopping at a supermarket is usually a secondary choice. We don't expect to find top-quality meat at a supermarket, and bakery bread is often superior. While some supermarkets try to replicate bakery goods, they often fall short. People are drawn to supermarkets for various reasons, such as discounts or the chance to discover items they didn't know they needed.
These are smaller stores, so if you want a larger offer of different items, you should go to the hyper market or mega market, the range of items there and trademarks is huge.
Thanks guys : ) very interesting...in the USA our milk comes in plastic gallon jugs...or you can get a 1/2 gallon or smaller portion in a carton...but I have never seen milk come in a plastic bag. Considering the smaller size of the milk bottles in Serbia, I would think overall they may be more expensive than what we pay for a gallon of milk here in the states. I too love to drink milk plain...I think in other countries besides USA/Canada it is not so common. 🤔
The varieties of different things depends on the size of the store. Obviously if u go to a big super market like Metro og Mega Roda, or Tempo or Mega Idea u can find all kinds of things
a USA friend of mine saw the same mustard (senf) he uses at home, here in a store, but as he forgot to buy it, he sent me. Once there, I stared at all the mustards to find what he indicated brand, and name (Dijon) - a french town. I took it and thought to myself, gee, isn't a mustard a mustard. You learn something every day. Same goes for pizza decoration.
try going to mega maxi in viline vode (near pancevacki most (bridge)) there you will have huge variety of everything including cereals etc. You just went to small IDEA store in the middle of the city where space is limited to have a huge store :) More people actually shop in mega and hyper markets instead of these smaller ones
Most people make homemade pizza with ketchup. We usually use pizza ketchup, which is essentially ketchup infused with oregano smell and flavor. In fact, until I went to America I always thought pizza was made with ketchup and especially wasn't aware of 'tomato sauce snobbery' until relatively recently. i.e. that making pizza with ketchup was some unforgivable culinary sin in Italy and the US.
That is milk that last 5 day or you need to boil milk. On other place is milk in in tetrapack that can stay few month if isnt opened Pizza ketchup is for pizza . It has origano in it
canada walmart and i see more and more stores goes same way, you pick fruits/veggies and measure then print label by your self, then go to self checkout and do that part your self also. soon you will unload trucks and store items on the shelf by your self lol
@@prosquatterMustard is a mustard seed spread, which is always called senf. Noone ever asks for slacica or gorusica, which are names for mustard seeds, when they are buying a mustard to put on their hotdogs/sandwiches/etc.

Also try local mayonaise and local mustard. Frenchs is really not that good. Buy some bologna (ask for “parizer”, 100g to try, for some reason in usa is named after a city in italy, and in serbia after a city in france. Where is bologna really from?), fresh bread, mayo, pickles and make a sandwich.

Of all the Americans or Canadians, you two and the cheeky cat Gizmo are the most likeable people who report on Serbia. Bravooo. Please make more videos in Leskovac Pirot Nis Valjevo Priboje Uzice Sabac and Podujevo
Here is some explanations. 1st- this is some relatively small local store (Idea market-Mercator chain) so products selection are pretty much limited. If you need bigger selection you guys have to go to bigger store- to supermarkets. Also Idea (Merkator), Maxi, Dis, Univerexport. Metro...etc. Store like this is for a basic everyday needs of a regular Serbian mid class family (household) which is like less than 15 000 euros annual income. Yes, annual. I know on the streets in the cafes and restaurents it doesn't look like that but it is. Then, vast majority of people in Serbia do not eat instant cereal meals. We think that is BS and it's also proved very unhealthy because it's all gmo and full of sugar and additives (chemistry). Anyway we just do not eat it, never did and that is why selection is very low. Simple as that. Pizza ketchup is Serbian cheat, deception, deceit... :) It;s pretty much same like regular ketchup. No difference at all. And yes we put ketchup on pizza, I personally don't, (no matter how many Italians get mad about it and get hart attack after they see it. :) But long time ago in late 80es and during the 90es when more people in Serbia start to eat pizza it was a very tough times during the 90es, war, sanctions, empty stores, shortage of many products, inflations sky high, monthly salary $3-5 ( yes 3.00-5.00, not a mistake, not thousands, not hundreds) etc. So if we wanted it to make pizza we only had a ketchup and kechup was the cheapest way to make pizza. That's how we have pizza ketchup today. So unique. :) :) Oh, btw I put mayo on pizza. :D :D Great combination. :) Sweets- Serbia and former Yugoslavia had and still have pretty much strong sweets industr, factories like Banini, Stark, Takovo-Swisslion, Ravanica, Crvenka, Bambi, Frikom etc. (candies, cakes, buiscuits, chocolates etc.) so we all grown up and still grow up on domastic sweets and like it very much (Plazma, Eurokrem, Cipiripi, Najlepse zelje, Domacica, Noblice, Toto, Euroblok, krem bananica, munchmallow, Jaffa cakes etc._ ) So we do not have many other, imported, selections of sweets because we do not consume it much. Exept Milka and Nestle products, no matter how BS is it. :) It's like,you can see we have very few MCD's or KFC restaurants, no Pizza hut, no Burger King... because most of us do not like it. Same with Starbucks. We have our versions of coffees of burger (pljeskavica) we have our version of fast food like cevapi, burek and all that pekaras selection and that's it.

Sweets- Serbia and former Yugoslavia had and still have pretty much strong sweets industr, factories like Banini, Stark, Takovo-Swisslion, Ravanica, Crvenka, Bambi, Frikom etc. (candies, cakes, buiscuits, chocolates etc.) so we all grown up and still grow up on domastic sweets and like it very much (Plazma, Eurokrem, Cipiripi, Najlepse zelje, Domacica, Noblice, Toto, Euroblok, krem bananica, munchmallow, Jaffa cakes etc._ ) So we do not have many other, imported, selections of sweets because we do not consume it much. Exept Milka and Nestle products, no matter how BS is it. :)
It's like,you can see we have very few MCD's or KFC restaurants, no Pizza hut, no Burger King... because most of us do not like it. Same with Starbucks. We have our versions of coffees of burger (pljeskavica) we have our version of fast food like cevapi, burek and all that pekaras selection and that's it.
