  • Is this grocery store in Germany because everything is English? or is it on base?

  • Watch out for the sodium content in cottage cheese dude. I love it too but a friend of mine pointed it out to me the other day at the supermarket and I was shocked at how much is actually in it! I haven't found a salt reduced one yet.

  • Wish U could help me food shop healthier!! I could use your help Thanks For the food tips!

  • Aren't you in Germany? All the labels are in English there.

  • @miscmccoy I wonder if they have a military commissary there to shop at..hmm answer this one areyousuprised

  • thxs 4 a great video on heathy cheap foods lol kool

  • im going to stick to your food ideas/choices-if i stick to your ideas-i might get somewhere.thanx.

  • Who's your camera person? just curious 

  • i agree with all of this, except cottage cheese grosses me out, and i refuse to buy canned/bagged tuna, because of what those companies do to the oceans.. it's pretty grusome. but other than that, you're a damn good shopper! =D

  • I just went grocery shopping and loose followed this. Sorry bud but I need peaches and cream flavoured oatmeal. Just cant eat it plain like you do lol.

  • i wonder who was filming you.... you didnt buy any fruits??

  • You are just super good looking and have great facial mannerisms. The whole military thing just adds like 10 points to your greatness.

  • shopping cart..we call them a Carriage in the northeast and I get crap about it all the time..lol

  • He knows what he's talking about.

  • 4:07 you totally passed the salmon. Salmon is way better than tuna.

  • Meat from the regular grocery store is AWFUL. Meat and berries are two things you should always buy organic.

  • so is the dude holding the camera your boyfriend?

  • That looks like the Ramstein Commissary

  • Shop at Aldi, done cheap and German and has like 10 shelves o caprisun

  • I freaking love your vids.....but every time I remember your gay it makes me :( ughhhhhhh lol

  • the chik at 49 sec. is totallly cheking you out bro hahahaha. Everyone seems to mind there buisness or are they kinda use to poeple using cameras in the supermarket? and did u have to like ask permition to record? My buddies and i have tried to take pic in a walmart and they totall bang on our packs asking us to stop it :S dont know why. any who great video!

  • I try to get healthy and cheap. Mostly frozen veggies and bulk food stores so I don't have to go and shop throughout the week, i also do take advantage of food pantries when I can, but that's not an option for everyone.

  • "If you have friends come over and you don't have chips... you are not a very good friend"

  • This is all great..... if you can afford it. You are just skipping thorough this store and saying, "I'll take this....and this.....and I want this.....".

    Who ARE you??? ....Santorum? Perry? Bush?

    Look, people are struggling. 200 million Americans are scraping to PAY for food. If you want to help and show your cleverness ......go to the best CHEAP stuff! Don't just walk through the store like you're David Rockefeller.

    GET REAL dude! We aren't ALL rich and ..... single!

  • @Ifukguyz What the hell are your talking about? It's not like he's buying champagne and caviar! Adjust your medication before we get the hose!

  • @uranian99 Typical. You have absolutely NO idea what OVER 50 (FIFTY) .....MILLION ....that's 50,000,000 ......Americans are going through at this very moment, do you!? La la la.

  • @Ifukguyz I do. I'm one of them. So stop preaching to the choir and stop lashing out at the man shopping for groceries.

  • @uranian99 Obviously you don"t "get it"....and don't care! Food is a very HUGE problem for many MANY Americans. I think this guy is VERY cute! I think he looks HOT - that said, he's like a child when it comes to realty One THIRD of the American "work force" can't walk through a grocery store and just pick up anything that's "healthy"" or "good" for them.

    Don't you care about the REST of humanity?

  • @Ifukguyz I get it, alright. You're making a mountain out of a molehill.

  • @Ifukguyz None of the things he gets are particularly expensive, and are definitely on the "cheap" side. MOST people should be able to afford these things, unless their budget limits them to like...a strictly top-ramen diet or something. My parents supported our 6-person family off of these types of food on a very tight budget, with only one of them working for years.

  • @CrystalEyesxx Are you aware that their are OVER 45 million American people who are living on an income so strained that they have NO luxuries ....whatsoever? They budget FOR food! That they struggle to make their.... rent?

    Do you think you are helping by saying "I loved Ronald Reagan & Maggie"?

  • @Ifukguyz Don't preach to me about "luxuries" my parents barely made enough to scrape by, and we ended up on the street twice. I am completely aware of how families struggle, Can you get cheaper foods? Yeah, definitely. He is showing how to eat relatively healthy on a limited budget, not buy the most food for your money. He only spent $50, which isn't a lot for groceries, and he bought foods that are healthy, filling, and go a long way. Your arguments have nothing to do with this vid.

  • @CrystalEyesxx You are an asshole. You simply don't care.

    If this man had any feelings he's be telling people how to SAVE money. He wouldn't be walking through the store saying "I'll take some of this and .....some of this......and .....some of this....a little of this....."

    I KNOW children in the US who are STARVING.....DAMN YOU! Do you even know what "starving" means??

    You little fucking asshole SHIT!

    "I'm okay. I'm fine. Don't be so upset! Who...CARES anyway !!??"

  • @Ifukguyz Have you read anything I've said? Regardless, you're upset with the maker of this video for showing people how to get healthy foods on a limited budget, and because some people still can't afford these things? How is that logical or his fault at all? You're ridiculous. Why don't you go get mad at a makeup guru for not catering to men or something if that's the kind of logic you're using? While you're at it maybe get mad at a singer because some people are tone deaf. Drama queen.

  • @CrystalEyesxx Okay. So, you don't care. 45 million Americans go to bed hungry. Think you're alone? NO! You are in the 70%.

    We'll leave it at there. Feel superior and enjoy YOUR life.

  • @Ifukguyz cmown dude, there's about a trillion oil giants you gotta sream at before you land at someone who wants fresh broccoli...

  • @SamYulie95 I bet you said to yourself, "I want a spotlight! I'll write something cute."

    Well, all the assholes are clenching. You have made yourself an icon of history.

    Do you actually think that people aren't going to know what you're doing?

    "ME! ME! I know it's stupid but......LOOK AT......ME!!!"

    Don't worry about it. You are the American average. You are stupefied by poisons in water and food and drunk from TV.

    You are not in the equation. Relax. (Go back to masturbating.)

  • @Ifukguyz firstly, I'm british - and really i dont care, it's just some guy buying broccoli, calm down.

  • "Hopefully I won't have to eat out at all this week." 5:44

    - Words of a gay man :)

  • I very much like that you eat healthy foods and don't spend too much. We are prtty similar with the foods we eat. One things that you didn't mention is whole wheat pasta. I can buy a whole box of whole wheat past for just over a dollar and pasta sauce for just over a dollar (I choose the lower sodium sauce). I also like to drink green tea. It's super cheap, hydrates you well, tastes better than plain water, relaxing, and is full of antioxidants, bioflavinoids, etc.

  • masculine gay guys rock!!!

  • @karmalevel GAYS rock!

  • Every college student needs to watch this video. im a pretty good cook -- i went to culinary school but dropped it because i couldnt afford it-- but for some reason i cant buy groceries :( i only buy what im going to eat that day ahahah

  • you were doing good till you got to the skim milk…..lol jk, if i could stomach it i would drink it too, way better for you, but tastes like dirty water.

  • God your so sexy ;)

  • I like your take on torilla chips

  • The best part of this video are the comments below it!

  • i love how guys hit on him through the comments xD

  • I hate brown rice so I just have sweet potatoes.

  • Was this on base? The weights are in pounds, not grams and kilograms.

    Also, Randy speaks the truth about frozen blueberries. Best. Snack. Ever.  You can also try frozen strawberries and rasberries.

  • i like how you are so random..and doing things that are common to life.

  • tell your dad to check out super skim milk, it's got similar fat and calories to skim but it's a lot thicker and tastes better, it's also got more calcium and vitamins. they make it by putting powdered milk in skim milk and it's awesome but it is kind of expensive.

  • Plain Oat Meal + tsp of Sugar Free Strawberry Jam = Yummy. Oh, and you can tun-a-piano, but not tun-a-fish. Tuna IS a fish, lol. Sorry, old restaurant joke. LOL. I eat a lot of whole eat, no added salt or sugar, very little processed foods, home brewed green tea, no soda and only sugar free drink mix and hardly ever eat fast food, once a year, 18 months, sometimes 2 yrs w/o fast food, lol. But I don't lose any weight :-( Lack of an exercise program I suppose. I don't have a car, so I do A LOT o

  • lmao! that's exactly how i shop! hahha

  • haha chips :D awesome

  • Wow, your diet is almost identical to mine... I've been enjoying brown rice for years... canned salmon is a plus... and rolled oats, as natural as possible. Fresh veggies and fruit... other people may think it's boring, but I look and feel great eating basic food like this!

    Am dying to know: who is your camera holder? Is it a well known friend, or just a random shopper/passer-by? Lol.

  • you know a lot about foods haha =) I wanna go grocery shopping with you lol

  • You shop, cook and it's all healthy, dam you'll make an awesome husband!

  • "Green olives, because every once in a while you need to make a martini" - Randy

    Lol

  • You forgot that there's no tax in the commissary :P Everything is so much cheaper :D

  • I've enjoyed your videos. This one especially caught my eye since I'm a chef. Good food choices. I think however I would buy dried beans instead of canned. I would be interested to see more work out videos from you this month. Keep up the good work!

  • I really like very much what you are doing in these daily videos this month (January 2012), so far. Very practical info. Keep it up. Many thanks!!

  • ...and cottage cheese is wayyyyyy cheaper then casein :P

  • Awesome video :) Only problem with it though is that when you have a family of three or four, it is difficult to stay under 50$.

  • The way your left eyebrow moves when you talk is unbelievably cute.

  • @bagelkel00 I though it was kinda annoying lol he's cute w/o it

  • Try to buy fresh as much as possible, Ketchup and can goods are loaded with sugar n salt, Bananas are good but loaded with potassium and can be harmful to some people, they also add weight to your body n sit on your stomach like a rock! Yeah go for fresh fish, never pond raised! they're suffocating in their own filth, the water is not filtered. Buy only eggs that come from Hens not raised in cages, Milk is not good for the intestinal tract, it's loaded with sugars and is very hard to digest.

  • First, let me say I am a HUGE fan of yours!! :) And very much enjoy watching your videos!

    Second, I was wondering if you get stopped in ordinary places (like when you go grocery shopping) like people saying "you're that guy that came out live".. I see that video has over 5 million views, so you must get recognized sometimes!!

  • Thank you for this video! :) I really needed to know more about healthy foods.

  • i love the music playing in the background! lol makes me want to dance lol

  • Love these heath&fitness videos!! Keep em up!

  • Tomatoes also have a lot of lycopene - really good for prostate health.

  • The smaller the cart, the less stuff you don't need you're gonna buy...

  • never seen white eggs in my life! wow $50 your groceries are cheep don't come to Australia they rip u off for everything!

  • thanks.. very helpul and informative!

  • That blue short is good for you

  • Your not a very good friend if you dont have chips - areyoursuprized

    <3 so true!

  • since your in france, plarle vous francais ? even though I know you said you don't know any french.

  • I'm just wondering. Who's filming? Not sure if I just missed it or what...

  • Randy, you had a question from one of your readers re: oatmeal v grits....grits being a traditional southern starch.

    -Oatmeal v. grits? My vote: oatmeal. Oatmeal lowers cholesterol-cooked or raw, raw keeps all the vitamins intact. Grits are from corn and I never knew anyone who ate grits raw. They were so processed by that point...all vitamins are gone.

  • Randy, you are so spot on about salt in canned beans...soak or drain/rinse. That is how I use chick peas/garbonzo to make dip... or with lemon/olive oil, parsley/cilantro to make a bean salad.

    -I hadn't thought of eating raw oatmeal with applesauce...such a good idea. Prior person suggested raw cinnamon powder; I agree it is good. Oatmeal doesn't have to be cooked (new thought for me), with milk and sugar added.

  • Randy, To think you are from GA. I'm impressed since your diet is from Berkeley, CA....you dispel many stereotypes about gays and eating healthy.

    -Loved this video.

    -What about PLAIN yogurt? (I mean regular, without sugar---difficult to find in small containers in the US, difficult to find at all except in high end nature stores---everyone in USA wants SUGAR SOAKED everything) Plain tart yogurt--So good with a diced tart (pippin) apple and sprinkled with cinnamon. No honey, no sugar.

  • Just wanted to say thanks a bunch! I'm a college student and I'm trying to get some ideas for cheap, healthy and easy food to make for just myself that's not the "same old thing" (to me anyway) and you gave me a bunch of great ideas. Love your channel and thanks again!

  • Maybe this video should be called, " How to Furrow your Brow"

  • Randy, why don't we know each other in real life? I really need someone like YOU right NOW.

  • Food for thought. If you have a colunder (if spelled right) wash all your beans to get rid of that soupy loaded sodium garbage theiy put in with ur beans, peas, green beans, I was all my beans when im deiting.

  • WAIT..... do you know french?

  • I love the healthy eating (how good broccoli is) then to olives - why? "Because sometimes you've got to make a martini", loving it!

  • 4:58 ass shot!

  • you're adorable lol wanna pinch ur cheek

  • TIP: JUST DONT EAT AS MUCH

  • He should take viewer topics. Or make vlog

  • I knew someone would comment about him getting the cottage cheese because I giggle as it was happening. I was also amazed at the plastic bags for a second because they don't allow plastic bags in my town anymore.

  • I enjoy your video! Good topic. And btw you should pronounce 'salmon' without the 'L' XD

  • you are so cute

  • These are good videos.

  • love this u are sooo funny w/the olives 4 martinis ,and the gotta have chips for your pals lol...i eat same as you,and am ret. msgny,60, good luck to you,your an aewsome airman/soldier

  • And of course all these gay guys are gonna give you money LOL

  • All good sense except for the 2 dozen eggs. In a week? Might as well drop the chicken and tuna and go with beef.

    Also a great source of protein: peanut butter and all nuts. And nuts are better for your friends than chips.

    

  • Do you date older guys? I think I am in love. If not, I just wish I was about your age and in the military with you in Germany.  Maybe we could wash clothes together and I could make a film of it! I would love to eat your banana ;-)

    kg

  • Thanks Randy! I always get broccoli and often tomatoes, red leaf lettuce, red onions. I use mustard (0 calories) or mayonnaise instead of ketchup. For those who are lactose intolerant, I recommend trying Kefir -- gives a source of dairy protein plus active cultures for healthy digestion. I use it on granola and as a milk or ice cream substitute.

  • swore i heard background ppl say "isnt that the gay soldier i saw all over TV?"

  • Cont'd re 4:58 -- CameraMan can we put YOUR $'s in Randy's Tip-Jar ???

  • hehe this is cute:) i am going shopping today!

  • I've really been enjoying all your videos...  (Hugfest)

  • I usually am a healthy eater, bought today (ironically) will be an exception.

    Further note, don't get white bread or regular pasta. Go with whole grain/whole wheat. More fibre, less processed, better for you. Making the switch to whole wheat pasta was only a taste difference I noticed at first. Now, I love it and hate the taste of regular (bad) pasta.

  • I just bought chips! come over :)

  • where you that fit when you enrolled in the military? im wondering if a guy can go from skinny to bulky

  • Randy marry me !

    i need a personal diet coach...

    0:-)

  • Lmao, the comments on these videos are hilarious. y'all a bunch of horny bastards... ;-P

  • u didnt buy anything to drink

  • Cottage cheese tastes like yuppy liposuction fat

  • ...Re 4:58 -- Randy, keep shoppin' the lower shelfs, that's where you find the best deals!

    And it's a good lil' workout too! ;-) -- <3 u like crazy! (haha).

    All fans... ThumbsUp if you like this idea ?!

  • I eat Cheerios for at least one meal most days. There was a stretch this summer where for 48 hours that was pretty much the only thing I ate. It was wonderful.

  • More of 4:58 please. :P

  • Now what are you going to make with all that?

  • Randy, do you have a guilty pleasure? I like cashew nuts, but those in a can are so salty. Do you eat any of that dried out seaweed?

    Eating healthy can be expensive. WHOLE FOODS, case and point. Thanks for showing us more economic options.

  • lol! if your friends come over, and you don't have chips... you're not a very good friend.

  • Was that supermarket on an army base? Looks very luxurious!

  • @Perrofeo25 I can say with certainty that he was in a commissary - a military grocery store. I recognized the signs and set-up :)

  • @wenn1229 Yes, I thought so. Those prices have to be subsidized by US taxpayers. What a fortune it costs us to defend Europe. They should be paying for their own defense by their own people, not us. 

  • @Perrofeo25 whats your problem, i think randy makes a good job with his vlog, but no one in germany AND europe needs the help of the united states, we do not have any problems with russia, china etc ;-), also we are not allowed to shop in your army shops and we can afford shopping without your low prices (sorry for that) why do so many americans believe we need their help don't misunderstand me, i like the u.s. and i met many nice people there last summer but your comment is stupid!

  • Easy on the tuna because of mercury. I use wild alaska salmon, but I am sure I will find something wrong with it some day too... oh well, moderation, I guess,

  • @watertower12 Isn't it white albacore that has the most mercury? Just choose a different species and choose darker meat. I try to have fresh water fish instead like walleye or trout whenever it's cheap enough. Still you can't beat canned tuna for convenience!

  • Randy, sprichst du Deutsch? Du bist sehr schön.

  • Are you back in America now?

  • Who's filming?

  • sunriselg, It's Alabama.

  • Great tips! If you can afford it, try to go as much organic as possible. GMO ingredients should try and be avoided.

  • Great idea for a video.

  • What about condoms?

  • @AndreWebRat I wouldn't eat those

  • It's great that you are able to afford to shop like that. If I bought the same items where I live and had as full of a cart as you, it would cost me well over $100 every week. I can't even THINK about spending that much money on food, I have a food budget of about $25 a week, so it's ramen and mac and cheese for this guy! Nice to see you posting videos every day though, looking forward to the next one.

  • Loved your video and have even linked to it via my site!

    For me being one of the many who said healthier eating and savings would be 2012, this video will really help me and others like me!

    Thanks very much for sharing with all of us!

    All the best!

    OutMaturity

  • When I have fresh apples or pears and they start getting soft or spotted, I boil them in a little sugar water(just a tablespoon of sugar in a little water) and make my own apple sauce. I have one of those stick blenders that makes this task fun. You mentioned you like to mix apple sauce and oatmeal. Love you, Randy.

  • I thought you are in Germany? This looks like an American supermarket!

  • what country was this, i thought you were in europe but everything was in english?

  • i love you

  • man i love you. keep the vids coming cutie <3

  • You're beaut!

  • where did you learn this healthy eating philosophy ? I can't imagine the US Military extolling the virtues of blueberries, oatmeal and applesauce .. =D

  • am I adorable? LOL

  • @guy2231 Yes he does

  • @stachem17 ...4:58 ThumbsUp for the CameraMan! :-)

  • Whenever I'm depressed over all the hot guys being straight and I just think of Randy and it's ok again.

  • o.o

    $50 bucks for all that? I can't even get that much for $50 when ever I go out to get groceries. Damn the food prices.

    And you're so cute when you're awkward.

  • Your so cool i love that your gay and still just be yourself its so great to see that!!

  • youre so awkward, i love it :D just wanna put you in a jar <3

  • Basically, what I have learned, is the following : - stay away from processed foods - stay away from added sugar/salt - don't eat a lot of ketchup

    What I have determined from the phrase 'you are what you eat' : - stay the fuck away from me

  • okay is it just me or does randy have a nice ass?

  • I was totally eating ice cream when watching this... now i feel like a total fatass

  • @SuckishEgo I just put a pizza in the oven, so I'll be right there with you.

  • @SuckishEgo I laughed so hard it hurt because I was doing the same thing!! But it was under the doctor's orders after getting my wisdom teeth removed.

  • tostitos!! sponser!! haha , awesome tips by the way

  • So many videos lately woohoo:D

  • Too much tuna within a week is not good because of the mercury content...

  • I hate Oatmeal cereal. It makes me want to puke everytime I try to eat it. Funny thing is I do like oatmeal cookies and oatmeal bars.

  • Do you ever go to a German supermarket outside the base to do your shopping?

  • Your sooo cute! The face expressions you make when you finish a sentence or don't know what else to say are adorable lol

  • I think most people here are because you're so darn adorable rather than wanting to learn how to shop for healthy foods.

    And plus you're like a friend since you inspired so many of us :3

  • ...

  • Beginning of video....bananas and CONDOMents. Enough said

  • marry me please! =D

  • You eat really healthy!!! same like me, hehe!

  • show us the camera guy ... is that your secret bf?? :)
