H‑E‑B is the best thing about Texas! There’s also something to be said about the wonders of not being a publicly owned company. They were prepared for the pandemic before it even hit us. They had their eye on what was happening in China and started stocking their warehouses accordingly. They handled the freeze like a champ and for their communities vs for their bottom line. They hit the ground running after Texas weather disasters. ❤️ H‑E‑B. They should just run the state.
YES! They were literally a life-saver in/after hurricane Harvey a few years ago. They are an outstanding member of the community. Generous, under-the-radar, always ready to help.
Yes! Love the way HEB took care of us!!
They have an entire department dedicated to emergency response. They’re not called Texas FEMA for no reason
Yes, as a California transplant and now Texan heb is the best grocery store in the world!
Yes! I’m pretty sure my old HEB used to do like food pantry type shops for those who couldn’t afford groceries at least once a month. I appreciate this company!
As someone who shops H‑E‑B all the time I tend to take things for granted… like tortillas but this video brought me so much joy to see that you enjoyed it so much. Thank you for reminding me how blessed I am.
Me too. I just left HEB A COUPLE of hours ago and now need to be more grateful 🙏
same!😁
Me too.
Yes!!! Exactly!
Same 🩷🩷
As a Texan, I was so excited to watch this video! I will always sing HEB's praises. Not only is their variety and pricing great but they also contribute to the community. They have sponsored my dog rescue group's fund raising events for years, when we have a grass fire they always send out snacks and Gatorade for the fire fighters and they have even brought in 18 wheelers full of washers and dryers for free use when my city's water system was compromised. Forever throwing my money at HEB and happy to do so.
Reasons I will never move from San Antonio, Texas: the food I could never leave my taquerias and Whataburger, the absolute sheer volume selection and quality of HEB their store brands are just as good if not better than national brands in taste and cost, turnarounds I was shocked when I found out other states didn’t have these. They improve traffic flow and make so much sense.
As a fellow San Antonio resident I agree!
Same!
Fellow San Antonian here! Love H‑E‑B!
Same here… I live in San Antonio and I love HEB ❤
I'm not a San Antonian but a Corpus Christian and I couldn't agree more. Texas all the way but I am disappointed Whataburger sold out.
Hi Christine. I’m live in Central Texas. I can’t even image having to live without HEB. The HEB brand, the excellent produce, the great employees… They get all my grocery money. Have a wonderful back home.
Happiness is watching a video with Christine, Dave, Harley, Andrew, Tyler and Ryan doing a taste-test. You all are hilarious and I could watch a taste-testing marathon with y’all. Who needs Netflix? 😆🤣😂
We love our HEB! I have two daughters that work there! I have to say that they take really good care of their employees! Every time I go I find something that I’ve never seen before. Glad you liked your trip!
Aww, the ending cuddle. I wish I had that in my life.
I’m so glad to live in Texas, HEB is the bomb. One of my new favorites is the queso with brisket mix in the deli dept. open the package, dump in crock pot, add some liquid of your choice, from beer to beef broth, and heat until everything is melted. Eat with chips or on a baked potato! They had their game on during Covid with grocery pickup, too. Wonderful! Did you make it to a Buccees? They are the kings of snack foods, shopping, and cleanest bathrooms EVER!
Well now I'll need to pick up that dang brisket queso to try for ourselves. Thanks for the recommendation. 😊
Omg the brisket queso!!! Yes
Greetings from rural Australia. I love Buccees. My cousins, in Houston, recommended it to us. Best choice in road trip food and best bathrooms anywhere in America.
My mom, born in 1939, taught us that a “pee-can” was something you kept under your bed so you didn’t have to go to the outhouse at night. This Alabama girl definitely says pecan with NO long vowel sounds! I would love to visit that HEB as a vacation destination if I could get free shipping to get everything back home. 😂
Peh-cahn for life
One of my best recipes was handed down by my grandfather from Ohio who was part of a traveling band of clowns which toured the country in the 1930s and 40s. Not only did he fully participate as a performer (juggling and spraying seltzer mostly) but he was alsmo in charge of the Clown Chuckwagon, and over the years, cae up with a nice selection of mostly campfire stews (or "or stewge" as Gramps used to call them),, soups and casseroles. One of my favorites, casseroles, which I still prepare frequently, consists of baked beans and wieners (for the KETO portion of the meal), macaroni and cheese. and a couple handfuls of those big orange circus peanuts - a sweet yet savory bake-up that's a hit with everyone who tries it. Gramps had one clown name for performing with his fellow troupers at carnivals, civic events, etc., throughout the central Midwest ""Antsy Pants" - but around the campfire at breakfast or suppertime, when most of these talented vagabond buffoons had removed their make-up and hung their giant shoes in their campers, (but oddly enough not all of them) Gramps was affectionately known among the boys as "Yummo." He told me how it wasn't unusual for farmers to donate a hen or two and maybe a couple of dozen eggs, in return for a brief barnyard slapstick performance by a couple of the boys for the farmer, his family and his hired hands.. He also told me as soon as he got back to camp with the chickens, the alcoholic Geek who traveled with them would inevitably beg permission to bite the heads of the pullets when Gamps. She was the seamstress - making a good number of the clown suits from her own design and repairing all them when required. So of course Gram and Gran rolled along from town- to -town with a big foot pump operated sewing machine in their trailer, - in addition to all the pots, pants, cutlery, stirrers, etc. My Dad was born in a campground in Posey County, Indiana, delivered by a local midwife and plopped into a casserole baking dish as soon as Gramps cut the umbilical cord with his second best onion chopping knife. As for me, I married young and did well for myself in doing so. My wife is the daughter of an outdoor parking lot magnate in a major city in Ohio. I was dowried with three downtown lots. I've had a comfortable life pretty much doing whatever I want all day while other people collect money on my behalf while sitting down in booths, watching TV, reading (or even snoozing between customers arriving and honking the horns to wake 'em up). Consequently, for awhile, I was able to open a couple of storefront business which specialized in selling "clown suits for the whole family," including custom made if somebody wanted them - and even clown suits for the family pets. The seamstresses I hired used Gram's patterns, of course. . The stores were called "Hem and Ha!" - and with every sale, I usually threw in a copy of one of Gramps' recipes for a clown casseroles, "silly stew," "buffoon bread, "Punchinello Porridge,," or what have you. Of course, they all pair well with seltzer water, ramps was ready to get those birds cooking. Seemed that this particular Geek actually not only savored the taste of the live chickens he was required to eat (which were usually provided by the promoter of the event at which the troupe was performing) - but craved more when "off=the-clock" Talk about a Carnivore diet!! Wow!!! Reportedly, he was known to comment that "live chicken pairs well with a pint of Carstairs White Seal Blended."
Wow! What a colorful family history! It is amazing to have so much family history in such vivid stories.
@@BamaRollOn Thanks. I'm glad you enjoyed my story.
As a central Missouri girl now living in se costal Georgia I completely agree with you no hard vowels!! Brunswick Mo has the worlds largest pecan!!
Widowed a year and 3 months ago. Living in Southwest Missouri. My favorite sister and her family live in sugar Land Texas and I am thinking of moving there too. I think you just convinced me! Love your videos!
Sugar Land is wonderful! You should do it!
I’ve definitely taken H‑E‑B’s gloriousness for granted all my life as a native Texan. 😂
I am A TEXAN!!
We LOVE our HEB! ❤
I am going to have to hunt down the Little Debbie PB cream pie. 😁
Aside from HEB, we can also find them occassionally at our Dollar General in Godley, TX! They are quite large for a Little Debbie snack, but the flavor is really good- not super strong, just right!!
You have the cutest kids, what a credit to you both! Such a fun family! X
I shop at HEB regularly (Houstonian here!). Love it too. However, I prefer the HEB Creamy Creations to Blue Bell. I said what I said. I stand by it.
Woah, someone chose violence today! ;)
@@FrugalFitMom 😜
Happy to be a Texan! God bless Texas!!!!!!!
Their customer service is top notch, amazing goods/food, their response during the pandemic and through natural disasters, meal deals, combo locos and their debit card that gives you $$$ on their brands. The gas is the best price too! And yeah the tortillas are amazing…you should have got the southwest and made pinwheels with laughing cow cheese and their Cajun smoked turkey. They sell freshly cooked crawfish when in season, fire roast hatch chilies outside when in season…I could go on forever. I missed them so much when my husband was stationed out of state.
I visit a local grocery store every where we travel. I love when other people get so excited my different finds.
I'm only at the 4 minute mark of the video and I would have purchased as much non-perishable food/beverage items that I know I couldn't get back in my home state and purchase shipping items, packed everything up and just sent them out to my home or fam/friends house until I got home!! This is what I did back in '96 when I went to Hawaii, bought items and shipped them back home (I did have family to receive it at home). How fun to have your entire family taste test with you, your kids are adorable!
Yup 👍 👍👍👍..HEB..I need to stop by tomorrow..
And I Loved what your son said about porches ..we all have a porch on this block..and the porch is like an Extra LIVING ROOM 💓
I don’t have a back porch but I do have a covered patio. And yes, that’s what I call mine, my outdoor living room. I use it more than I do my inside living room. But I’m an outdoor person anyway. Only bad weather forces me inside.
Yes. I’m a native Texan. Been living out of state for my husband’s job for about four years now. When we go home, we always go to the HEB in Bastrop. It’s heaven. Can’t wait to move back.
HEB continously gives back to their communities by participating in EVERYTHING that benefits everyone. HEB was prepared for the pandemic before the rest of the world was. They treat both their employees and customers well. They definitely focus on philanthropy and it shows. HEB for president.
Moved to San Antonio a couple years ago and I am an H‑E‑B convert. What are all other grocery stores even doing?????
Military family who has lived in a few different places…H‑E‑B is my favorite grocery store of all time!
I have family come visit Texas and ask when can we go to HEB and WHATABURGER ❤😊
Whataburger is a MUST whenever I go back home!
Watching you & your family is so fun! You guys are wonderful.
AGREE on all points!!! Texas is GREAT and so is HEB. You should also try HEB's swankier younger brother, Central Market - heaven on earth for foodies. BTW, I wear that exact same HEB t-shirt you sometimes wear, love it.
This video was so much fun!! Thanks for bringing us along ❤
Loved this video! Your family is too cute! Christine, you are the mom that everyone wishes they had!
Was so good to see your kids & hubs! Love it when you shop and taste test stuff together. That looked like so much fun!
Your youngest is just the sweetest thing!!!! 😊 thank you for the video! I always look forward to when you upload.
Love your family. They are such good sports on your adventures. I am from California, lived in Idaho for a short time, and got to Texas as fast as I could. Your content is great. I love the mix of family, fitness, and frugal cooking done with a smile.
I have actually demonstrated many of these products! Thanks for spreading the ❤️
Your family is great! I love that they're willing to try anything!
Feeling so lucky that I shop every week at my HEB:). Love your channel and your excitement for the little things in life that we tend to forget. Love y’all!
Hi Christine, I've been following you for quite a while now from down here in New Zealand and I just want to say thank you for always cheering me up. You and you're family are always so positive and happy and you make me laugh. Keep them coming.
Oh my goodness! Literally laughing out loud. I can’t eat gluten so I was vicariously living through your taste testing. Made me so happy. Thank you for your content!
You’re living my dream 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 love that shop !!!!
You are a bunch of fun crazies♡♡♡ I love that everyone participated in taste testing. Thanks for the entertainment Be well
I love my H-E-B and so thankful we have them all over San Antonio ❤
H-E-B is the best!!!! Besides being a great grocery store it is an amazing place to work. They treat their employees like family.
My heart is smiling so big with happiness for yall!! So glad you got to go to HEB and take us along with you. I had a blast watching you enjoy all of those goodies during your taste tests too. I make a 30 minute drive once a month just to go to HEB here and Stockup. All of their stuff is good, and the people that work there are always so nice. I'm just so happy for yall!! 😍
I shop at that HEB location all the time and the selection is amazing! Also I'm sure the blue bell ice cream was amazing but the heb creamy creations ice cream is to die for 😍😍😍
I LOVE HEB! We live near Austin and we have HEB stores ALL over. They aren't all as big as the store you're in, but the core products are universal. But my daughter lives in the Dallas area and they've never had HEB stores up there. The story goes that the founder of HEB made a verbal promise to the owners of Albertsons and Kroger stores decades ago, that he wouldn't develop in that area for "x" number of years. Just last week the first HEB in that area opened in Frisco, TX. My daughter says the lines to get in were insane and there were no places to park. In my area, there is no other store for me; only HEB. Their ads on TV say it best: HEB--Here Everything's Better. Love watching you and your cute family!
There’s several planned for up here and I can’t wait! I’m too far from Frisco to go to that one but there’s a few that will be closer to me
@@rangerlove7 My daughter is in McKinney. Apparently, one is opening there within the next couple of months. She was raised on HEB, so being without it has been tough for her, haha!
My daughter lives by that store ! I was just there babysitting grandkids and you’re right it’s a madhouse! Even have cops directing traffic! I live north of Houston and we have several hebs but none the size of this store! Love H‑E‑B!!
HEB stores are in most small towns here in Texas. I live south of the metroplex and we have a huge HEB store here in Burleson and a smaller one in the town next to us
Hope you enjoyed your time here! I shop at HEB all the time, and you're right it has become like Trader Joe's used to be for us, especially since we have to drive almost 2 hours to get to the nearest one in Austin. It was fun to see all your family in this video, especially during the sour strips taste tests.
That looked like so much fun, thanks for sharing and as always stay safe and God bless love ya Nancy
I loved seeing how excited you are about being at an HEB. I just finished a long shift at the HEB Plus I work at and this made my day.
Wow that all looked so tempting!!❤
This is one of my favorite videos!!! So much fun!
I love, love your family. Such good kids. Thanks
This is awesome. I always look forward to your videos. They are helpful and you are so inspiring
Agree 100%
I love your family! And you just gave me new things to try at HEB!
I know exactly what y'all were feeling! We live in NC, but I grew up in Texas. We just got back from a trip to Texas, but we drove. Lots of miles, but we got more HEB to bring home! We went to at least 3 different HEBs and loved them all!!!! We also tried those Apple Pie chips and they were weird. We did keep eating them though. 😀 Got some borracho beans, tortillas, Best Maid pickles, and Gebhardts chili powder. We also got some of the Chupacabra seasoning and the HEB Texas seasonings. Great minds! Oh and we got to go to the Blue Bell factory in Brenham!!
So now I have to send a shopping list & a shipping label to my sister in Texas!
Love the tasters!
So worth it!!! I have relatives in Texas. Whenever we're there for visits I schedule in a trip to HEB. I have a list of all kinds of great things that I can only find at HEB. It is grocery heaven!!!!!
Welcome home!
I rarely shop at HEB, but only because it is SO HUGE! I just don't have time to go through there to get groceries. The variety, especially of Texas-made products, is incredible!
It is fun to watch your family and taste testing! 😂
We don’t have HEB in Indiana but our Super Target carries the Sour Strips and my girls love them!
I'm in San Antonio and love HEB. There are a few HEB brand products I am not wild about but in general I love their stores.
Y'all are hilarious!! Little Debbie also has Snickerdoodle Creme Pies. Oh, my WORD - they're SOOOO good! The cake has crunchy bits of cinnamon sugar inside and the creme filling, super soft cookie and the crunchy bits are the PERFECT combo. I sweet talked the Little Debbie guy into selling me several boxes straight off his truck when I couldn't find them in any stores near me. :) Then I had to figure out how to fit them in my backpack and lug them around with me for the rest of my work day. But it was so worth it!
This was so much fun to watch. I've been a fan of Max for years and have always wanted to try Sour Strips.
What got me most about this video is that the store is fully stocked and neat. Our stores have huge holes where inventory should be and inventory stacked in the aisles because there aren't enough employees to stock it.
Front porches! Yesss!! And my mama would totally agree with you on Blue Bell Ice Cream. Both good Southern things. Thank the good Lord we have them both in Mississippi as well. I lived in Austin for a year and yes...I loved HEB! My sister and I still talk about it. 😁 So glad y’all had a good trip!
Love how everyone had something very different that they like about Texas 😊
Love the videos with your whole family in them, you guys are so funny and you and Dave are so cute together
Wow that was awesome! I love your kids! They are all so funny!!!
So glad you were in Texas for Blue Bell Salted Caramel Brownie flavor. So good. My mouth was puckering on all the sour candy. Not a fan of sour. Tortillas fresh made and their chips are soooooo good. Just pick up a carton of Guacamole and it's a meal. Y'all come back now. Safe travels home. HEB out of state meal boxes. Make it happen.
One of my bucket list things to do when i visit home
Love your family in your videos. You guys are so awesome and funny!!
I loved this video! The review part 10/10 the kids reactions! So cute
Welcome to Texas!! Enjoy HEB and don’t forget Bucees..Hugs from Santa Fe Texas
I love HEB! I miss it. When I visit family in Texas I always shop and load up a cooler and all of my favorite things. Love the San Antonio blend coffee.
Soooo cool!!! Aero chocolate is very very common in South Africa where I live. Super awesome to see it oversees. We have them in all kinds of flavours too.
Hope Y'all have a blast ♡
I remember 20 plus years ago traveling around Texas and shopping at HEB and being amazed by their variety. I loved that store even back then.
This made me laugh so much! I love this video. Please do grocery store visits and taste tests whenever you travel.
Love HEB! Your family is so cute and cracks me up!
Christine ~ I love your videos and now your PODCAST (!) even though I am a single 20-something with no kids lol. It’s therapeutic for me! ❤
I LOVE Heb. I've been in Texas since 2001 and don't think I could live without it. I live about an hour away from one but do not mind the drive to get all the delicious things they have to offer!
If you go to HEB on Saturday or Sunday you have to get the barbacoa they make in store that is amazing. Word to the wise you have to go early as they sometimes put a special together with the fresh HEB tortillas!!
That store looks like so much fun!
Bowling for soup! Yes! They are Texas made too lol. I live in Texas and take my H‑E‑B for granted. But as far as grocery stores go, H‑E‑B is not just a store, it’s an experience.
I discovered HEB here in Mexico! Yep, I live in Queretaro, Mexico. I totally understand your excitement!🥰
This might be my favorite video ever!!! I’ve grown up with HEB and my husband has worked for HEB for 45 years, he started at 16. I love their Creamy Creations ice cream even more than Blue Bell. Something for you to try next time. Hope y’all had a great trip to my hometown! HEB is the BEST!!!
HEB is definitely something I miss about living in TX...awesome grocery store!
Absolutely great video. I've laughed so hard at Dave. My husband loved Blue Bell ice cream
Yes, I agree HEB Is the best thing about Texas ! I'm surprised you guys didn't get sick From that mix !
HEB is the Best!! Born and raised in TX! I loved your video because you were so happy and excited!!
Loved this video you guys are great 👍
I live in North Florida and my Wal-mart has those Little Debbie Peanut Butter cakes. They are my husband's favorite. Love the video, the taste testing is so cute. :) Thank you for sharing your H-E-B haul, enjoy your vacation!!
We lived south of Houston, HEB wasn't there before 1989. We lived there between 1978 & 1989. I'll be looking for it on our next trip, for sure. Cinnamon Sugar Pita Chips are great for Apple Pie filling with crushed Red Hots or a drop or maybe 2 of cinnamon oil mixed in. A rif on Taco John's Apple Grande' although cinnamon sugar flour tortilla chips are better. I agree with Andrew about the turnaround lanes. Love you all ♡♡♡♡♡♡
❤😂😅 Hi Little Debbie❤😂 That place is like Disneyland ❤. I can only visit there. I to live in another State. My 1st time in was ?2021? And I was so mad because the Crowd😮😮😮😮 The people and the parking. I went in but I couldn't see everything. I went back on another visit and was so happy. Ur right u get so excited to shop and want it all. HEB = makes everyone happy ☺️😊🥰
Love the Taste Tests :) And it looks like ur husband works out quite a bit !!! can't miss it !
Yes, I went to Nightmare in theaters for my birthday! Love it!
A day without H-E-B is like a day without sunshine!!! LOVE H-E-B! Love from Texas ❤
LOVE LOVE LOVE HEB. I miss it soooo much. The tortillas, the fajitas, Big Red!
I love how excited you get. =) I want to try the Sour Strips too! 🍬
🤚 And that Will Ferrell clip got me 😆!
HEB is MAGICAL!!!! My must hit place when I visit my TX fam.
I miss HEB. Moved from West TX to East TX and my soul hasn’t been the same since!
Loved your HEB joy!!!!!!
My husband used to work at that very store, LOL. It's the size of 3 football fields. He transferred to a store 3/4 of a mile from our house. Walking to and from there every day, he walks LESS than he did when he was working at that HEB,--and he used to drive to and from that one..
That store is totally nuts. I've driven by some mornings, and the lot was packed at 7am.
Love their popcorn popped in olive oil
