Shocked by grocery prices in Denmark! (Full Supermarket Tour) 🇩🇰

Salling is just the store brand for Bilka and Føtex stores. It's good. The jarred potatoes aren't pickled, but simply in a salt brine.

Hi! Dane here! Just dropping some facts about stuff in the video; - Leverpostej is, as you said, a liver paté and it is VERY popular here. it doesen't go on crackers tho, it goes on rugbrød or any other bread.. It mostly goes in lunchboxes and is eaten for lunch (or breakfast on a peace of white bread) and depending on the person, it can be topped with remolade, pickles, mayonaise, pickled beetroot and so much more (my fav is bacon lol) - The cocio (chocolate milk) is very danish! The stuff at the bottom is not syrup, but most likely the chocolate that sink. Cocio is made of sugar, chocolate and milk! that's it! You have to remember to shake it VERY well or it tastes kinda bland.. - Yes, here we (most of us atleast) are raised on ryebread, and bread with alot of seeds and protein and fibers. It is very rare that you see white bread, or even toast in kids lunchboxes, because it's so Danish and extremely normalised to eat healthy bread! - Nope! The potatoes aren't pickled! They're in a salt brine and are often made into carmelized potatoes around chrsitmas time (mostly at the christmas dinner on the 24th) Sorry if this sounded snobish, i just love educating people about my country :,)

It is actually illegal in Denmark to charge the customer for an item if it falls and breaks. The stores are the ones taking the risk by having it displayed, so they take the loss. So there is no "you break, you buy" policy, as it is literally illegal.

4:00 Cocio - goes with a hotdog - after a night on the town. A true classic

Salling is the Private Label for Føtex and Bilka. The two stores are owned by the Salling Group. Every price marked with red color on the LED-tags is on sale. The Lay's chips was on sale. Normal price per bag is aprox. Dkr. 25,00 - 34.00,- (USD 3.57 - 4.86) depending of the brand. The pickled potatoes is just cooked and peeled then filled with water. Typically used for caramelized potatoes. You can rinse them in cold water and eat them cold but I wouldn't recommend it. 😉

The fløde leverpostej is NOT with fish.. Fløde means cream 🤭

Carlsberg is Danish, which is probably why it is reasonably priced

I agree with you that supermarket prices are not that bad in Denmark. When many tourists complain about the prices, then I think it is because they tend to buy from the tiny grocery store, or from 7/11, where the prices are typically 2-3 times higher than in a regular supermarket, where you guys went.

Føtex is known to be more expensive though🙂 There are discount shops, many of them

"you break it, you buy it" does not apply here. the store has insurance and won't force you to pay for something falling off the shelf or even you dropping it walking around

Salling is the in house brand, for Salling Group, which Føtex is a part of. I would say, that Denmark is a Kim's Chips country 🙂

Salling is the "overhead" brand for Føtex, Bilka, Netto and so on. Just like in Sweden there is Axfood who owns Willys, Hemköp, Tempo. So the Salling brand can probably present everything from rubberboots to snacks... Lovely to see a current clip from Denmark, it's been too long since last time I went there. It somehow becomes very, very far away when you move north from Skåne in Sweden.

Copenhagen is simply gorgeous. I went to this supermarket a few times last year. The prices are externally high compared to Germany, it is also cheaper in Sweden. But the Danes also earn correspondingly well. Denmark is absolutely worth a visit.

the "pickled" potatoes are for making a very danish speciality, caramelized potatos which are served at special occations like christmas diners.

Love your videos. 3:54 Since you ask about if milk needed to be refrigerated since thats whats in cocio here is some info about that. Cocio, a popular Danish chocolate milk brand, uses sterilized milk in its production. This type of milk undergoes a high-temperature sterilization process, which allows it to be stored without refrigeration until it's opened. The sterilization process ensures that the milk is free from bacteria and other microorganisms that could cause spoilage, making it shelf-stable. This is why Cocio chocolate milk does not need to be refrigerated until after it has been opened.

For lunch many danish people has plain smørrebrød on rye bread, same as the fancy one, but less toppings. The potatoes in the glass are not pickled- just boiled. Typically used for making sugar glazed potatoes

6:16 Salling/Salling Group is the store owner, it`s the cheap store brand. Kim`s is the Danes favourite/largest chips company.

Sometimes you get fruits and vegetables based on weight here, but since we are used to a price per item, it seems to be a way to gouge people more, because its always noticably more expensive than normal. At least in my experience. But visiting Denmark, getting and cooking your own groceries, rather than eating out, is one of the best ways to save money. Cocio is a Danish chocolate milk. And probably the best in the world. What you really need to do is get one when getting a hotdog or a burger.

6:05 Salling Group is Denmark's largest grocery group with chains such as Føtex, Bilka, Netto, BR and stores in Denmark, Germany and Poland. It competes with another grocery group called Coop that owns the chains suchs as Super Brugsen, Kvickly, Brugsen, 365 Discount and Irma.

Im from Denmark and i really loved this review! 😍 I would have loved to walk through with you guys and explain on the way, you seem like nice peepz - Good travel ♥
