00:00Dear friends, welcome.
00:03We will now conduct a thorough market price analysis for you.
00:08I am currently in Beirut, Lebanon.
00:11And I went into a supermarket in Lebanon.
00:14This is a supermarket and they have all kinds of things.
00:18What is being sold around here now?
00:20Let's look at these first.
00:22For example, strange things, like things that don't exist anywhere else in our country.
00:25For example, there's something called "hoçum" here.
00:27It's actually a type of spicy tomato paste.
00:30It's similar to ours, but a bit spicier.
00:33These are mayonnaise, folks.
00:35Of course, our legendary noodles.
00:37Look, this is what the noodles look like.
00:41And then there are the cheeses.
00:45Three angles, triangular cheeses.
00:48This is the tomato paste part.
00:50Here you'll find our classic yellow label black teas, black teas, and green tea as well.
00:57Let's take a look, for example, here it says London Green Tea costs $1.56.
01:01You know, it's worth reminding you right away.
01:03In Lebanon, the dollar is used as a second currency by friends.
01:07Official currency, that is.
01:08Therefore, you can make your purchases without exchanging any dollars.
01:12Here, for example, you can see a piece of toast bread.
01:15You see, it says toast bread.
01:18Many products, by the way, are already required to have English, Arabic, and French versions printed on them.
01:24This is how the loaves of bread are packaged.
01:26This is the kind of bread we have.
01:27A round bread called Bell.
01:29Meanwhile, most of the bread in the country has a somewhat Italian flavor to it.
01:35Sweet.
01:36Sweet instead of salty.
01:37So, these are the regular salted breads, folks.
01:40If you come to Lebanon.
01:42For example, he says pita white.
01:44It's the flatbread we know as pita bread.
01:46But it's much bigger, and from what I can see, there are 7 or 8 of them inside.
01:50Here's another pita bread.
01:53That's it.
01:55We saw the bread.
01:56Here are some crackers.
01:57Various types of crackers.
01:58How much is a biscuit, for example?
01:59It was $5.31.
02:01That's 475,000 pounds.
02:05So, it's very expensive, folks.
02:07I mean, it's not just any ordinary thing.
02:11You come from Türkiye, it's expensive.
02:14But if you're American, you use dollars.
02:17So it won't make any difference to you.
02:20Here you see the pickles.
02:22Especially my friends, this turnip pickle.
02:26I was a pickle that I ate last morning.
02:30Marinated turnips.
02:32What was the name of that thing we put in our salad?
02:37Red.
02:38Let's just say it's something like a beetroot, in a way you can understand.
02:42We also have pickled cucumbers there.
02:44There's something different over there.
02:46Friends.
02:47Lupine de Brin says.
02:50You can see it yourselves.
02:53Yes.
02:53How should we translate this as "What is this that we know?"
02:56One second.
02:58Lupine.
02:59So this is Lupine
03:02We have some kind of bean here, folks.
03:05I should mention that as well.
03:06I won't give too many details, though.
03:08For example, we have plain halva here.
03:10The price isn't listed below.
03:11Here's an interesting plain halva.
03:13You know, you can actually buy a lot of things from markets like this and take them back to Türkiye.
03:18You can bring food on planes with your friends, as long as it's not too much.
03:23Just a reminder.
03:24This is my favorite.
03:26Here, it's Altayyer's stuffed grape leaves that are keeping me alive, guys.
03:32It's the same kind of stuffed grape leaf as ours.
03:34There's no difference.
03:34There's a tuna here called White Bell.
03:38It's a tombali, you know.
03:40Let me give you an example of their price.
03:41It says $1.79.
03:431.80 for him too.
03:44160,000 Lebanese pounds.
03:48So if I say 2, that's about 80 lira multiplied by 2.
03:52These are actually cheap.
03:54Let me tell you.
03:55These are cheap, man.
03:57There are mushrooms here.
03:58Look, mushroom hozlar.
04:01Canned goods.
04:03There's a fruit cocktail here.
04:05You see.
04:06Then.
04:07There are a lot of creamers in this country.
04:09Look, there are tons of creamers.
04:11It's a type of cream used both in cooking and in regular tea.
04:14Here are the yeasts.
04:16Yeast, as you know, means yeast.
04:18There are whipped creams.
04:20Here's some whipped cream again.
04:22For example, Nescafé.
04:23If it's listed there, I can give you a price.
04:25For example, you might want to buy Nescafegol blend.
04:28For classic friends, you need to pay $5.14 American dollars.
04:34That's £460,000.
04:37So if we multiply, let's say 5.
04:40What does it make if I say 40?
04:42That's equivalent to 200 lira.
04:43Normally it's not that expensive.
04:45In my opinion.
04:46There are various gels here.
04:48It's Çişibon's coffee again.
04:51You see the ready-made meals.
04:53We have fava beans, folks.
04:55As you know, fava beans are a famous dish in the Middle East.
04:59These are some of the kinds of things you might see in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern countries.
05:03For example, we have Mudanmas here.
05:04Mudanmas is a famous dish here.
05:06Full Mudanmas and Chickpeas, he says.
05:08These are for friends to open and eat directly.
05:12There are salamis here.
05:14Classic Asian-style salami.
05:18These are halal, meaning they are pork-free.
05:22Luncheons.
05:23These are called chicken luncheons.
05:24Or beef luncheons.
05:26I paid attention to it while I was at it, wondering whether it was haram or halal.
05:29It's permissible, folks.
05:30Because it says it doesn't contain any pork products.
05:32Here you see lenticulars.
05:35Red lentils, red lent, red split lentiz, it already says so.
05:39There was Egyptian rice.
05:40You see a very interesting corn pilaf.
05:42He says it's American type rice.
05:44American rice too.
05:46American rice, by the way.
05:47This is the first time I've seen American rice.
05:49What is American rice?
05:52Lebanese rice, folks, you see.
05:54In this way.
05:54That's how the dry ones are.
05:55Here are canned corn products.
05:58This is the alcohol section.
06:00After that, there are various types of alcohol.
06:02I don't drink alcohol, so this place doesn't really interest me.
06:06Friends.
06:07So, this is the place we've shown.
06:09Here you'll find household items, things needed for repairs, cables, pliers, that kind of thing.
06:19For example, here's what I'd like you to see the price of.
06:23Shampoo.
06:24Palmolive shampoo, for example, costs 2.12.
06:28Multiply 2.12 by 40.
06:31They are cheaper here compared to Türkiye.
06:33These are cheaper.
06:36Perhaps because it's the supermarket in my area.
06:39Because I live a little outside the city.
06:41This place is a bit, just a little bit, cheaper.
06:44You can see it here.
06:45Women's products are for sale.
06:47If Dove has anything, these are it.
06:48For example, how much does Dove cost?
06:50Relaxing, he says.
06:51For example, with Lavender, something Dove has lavender.
06:540.89.
06:55Not even a dollar.
06:57So, roughly 30 lira, 25 lira, whatever it is.
07:00He's doing something like that.
07:01Besides, for example, how many Sensodin items did you run out of?
07:05It turns out that at 1.68 it's Sensodin.
07:08So, in general, I think these are cheaper.
07:11Here are our Selpak tissues.
07:13Let me show you this as well.
07:14For example, this Selpak from Remax costs 1 dollar.
07:20He had a pack of Selpak tissues that cost exactly $1.
07:22Pril products are like this, folks.
07:24What does it say here, for example?
07:25Kök says Secretsoft.
07:26Isn't it?
07:27In other words, the chefs' secrets.
07:30How much is Prill Secretsoft Root?
07:32It's $1.62 here.
07:35So these aren't very expensive things either.
07:37Here, friends, eating out gets very expensive.
07:42Let's look at it this way too.
07:44For example, what do we have here?
07:47For example, there are seeds.
07:49How much was it?
07:51Here's what he says:
07:51Your hips are 2.40.
07:52These, generally speaking, nuts and dried fruits are a bit more expensive.
07:56I should mention that as well.
07:57They have some interesting chips with a nice sauce here.
08:00My friends, by the way.
08:02Here are the seeds again.
08:05Then there are some more seeds.
08:09After that, there's a mix of nuts here.
08:11Again, what's the price of Klac?
08:12It says $5.25.
08:15What else is there after that?
08:17Again, Klac seems to be a well-known brand here, as far as I understand.
08:21This brand is famous in Lebanon.
08:26Yes, my friend, because you're famous here too.
08:29There are chips here.
08:30A brand called Dry K.
08:33And then, here we have more pretzel sticks, round pretzel sticks, folks.
08:37Yes, let me show you some of these chips too.
08:41What kind of rock chips are these people eating?
08:43For example, honey-flavored stuff.
08:46What was Mustafa?
08:48Did he forget?
08:50The languages got mixed up.
08:52There's a type of chip like that.
08:53There's a round chip there.
08:55Here they have their own chips, look.
08:58Potato chips.
08:59Then
09:03These things exist, folks.
09:04There are classic elements too, of course.
09:06There are Lay's and other things like that too.
09:08There's a type of potato chip here called Snips.
09:11A type of chip we've never seen before.
09:13Snips chips are a very large chip.
09:14This is the biggest chip here.
09:16Let's take a look at Pringles for those who are curious about their prices.
09:19The dollar is priced at 2.46.
09:21So, the pattern is 2.45.
09:232 designs.
09:25What is he doing?
09:2680-100.
09:27So, at most, 90 lira or 100 lira.
09:30That's how much it costs.
09:33I can say that it's cheaper than in Türkiye at this point.
09:36Let's go over there now.
09:38This is where the eggs are sold.
09:4030 eggs.
09:41We have chocolates here.
09:42Let's look at Kitkat, for example.
09:44How much is Shahanki Kitkat, bro?
09:46It says 0.84.
09:47It was 84 cents.
09:49Here, for example, we can also see our country's La Viva chocolates.
09:52We have chocolates from our country.
09:55Here are the Kinder Shippi's.
09:56How much is Milka around here, for example, man?
10:00Look, for example, it says 2.25.
10:032.
10:03What else is here?
10:06Then, for example, it says 1.34.
10:09Etcetera.
10:11You can find chocolate bars here again.
10:14They have these cookies... I mean, cakes.
10:17He says "Multi cake".
10:18Fruit pile.
10:19Actually, it's made with biscuits.
10:22Anyway, it looks like a cake.
10:25Here we have jelly candies and chewing gum, folks.
10:28Of course, this is the most interesting part.
10:31Look, guys, these people wrap almonds in this kind of stuffing and sell them like this.
10:37Actually, we normally do this, you know, just for fun.
10:40For example, that's how I like it.
10:42The man packaged the cashews in the same way.
10:44You see, he's selling them along with dates.
10:46Their prices are also low.
10:47Like, $1.85, $1.75, or whatever.
10:52This place has another great date-flavored cookie, folks.
10:56I produced Rimas.
10:57Date-flavored cookies.
10:58These are delicious.
10:59I recommend it if you come here.
11:01You can think of it as a snack.
11:03Let's take a look at the other part as well.
11:06Vegetables are sold here.
11:08Tomatoes, cucumbers, and so on.
11:10Let me give you a price right away.
11:11For example, how much do these grapes cost?
11:15It was 211,000 Lebanese pounds.
11:19That's roughly $2.
11:212x2 equals 80.
11:23Look, here are some yogurts, folks.
11:26For example, there's a yogurt I bought called La Bergère.
11:30Well, there's a strawberry one, for example.
11:32It has peaches.
11:33There is a simpler version.
11:34We also have yogurts here.
11:36Packaged yogurts are available.
11:38We have a drink here.
11:40He says its name is something like "original orange carrot".
11:41We have a carrot and orange drink.
11:44We have fresh milk available daily.
11:45Now, let's talk about cheeses.
11:47Now, when it comes to cheese, it's the Kohori brand again.
11:51It's a famous brand.
11:52Let me show you the brand.
11:54What do we have at the top, of course?
11:58Guys, can you guess what this is?
12:01Hummus, of course.
12:02Look, these are Zommos brand hummus.
12:06Hummus is very popular in Lebanon.
12:08This is the local dish.
12:09Therefore, hummus can be found everywhere.
12:11There are bars here, you know.
12:15For example, vodka shots, etc.
12:16Here are the cheeses down below.
12:19You see the cheeses.
12:21Here, for example, be careful when buying salami.
12:23Because some salami products contain pork.
12:26Because in this country, friends live among many Christians.
12:29Therefore, you need to ask.
12:31I asked about it last time, for example.
12:32I asked about that salami.
12:34It contained a pig.
12:35Then he said:
12:36He said, "Take that turkey salami."
12:39He said there were no pork in it.
12:40So, for example, I bought one of these.
12:42How much do these cost?
12:44Let's take a look at salami prices right away.
12:45Quickly.
12:46For example, this salami, folks.
12:48What do your friends say?
12:50It says $2.23.
12:54So, it's not bad.
12:56It's not too expensive.
12:57It's not very cheap, etc.
12:58These are ready-made foods.
13:01Hamburgers, schnitzels, nuggets.
13:03Cakcurt and stuff.
13:05Well, there are similar things here as well.
13:08There are biscuits, there are cookies, there are chocolates.
13:11And finally, let's show you the drinks.
13:13Let's end our video after that.
13:14Meanwhile, in Gofrik.
13:15Look, Gofri, a coffeehouse in the world of coffee, is sold right here.
13:18We couldn't see the price.
13:20And finally, let's record some fruit juices here.
13:23For example.
13:27For example.
13:29Wait a minute.
13:31Now, these luminaires also have these 2-liter bottles of water, folks.
13:34These are interesting.
13:37Quite large bodies of water.
13:40After that.
13:41There are alcoholic drinks and all sorts of other things here again.
13:45Here, the energy drinks are mixed together in the same way.
13:47You see coffees, lattes, and things like that.
13:51Yes.
13:52That's generally the case.
13:54Is there anything else I'm missing here?
13:57Probably not.
13:58Yes, friends.
13:59Here we are in a supermarket in Lebanon.
14:02The market is still like this.
14:03I've shown you the prices.
14:04I hope this video has been very helpful for you.
14:09If you enjoyed the video, don't forget to like it!
14:12And don't forget to leave a comment.
14:13Take care of yourselves.
14:14Then.
14:16Greetings from the capital, Beirut.
14:17Become.
14:18It's possible.
