The Most EXPENSIVE Grocery Store In America

Video Overview & Insights

We are all feeling the insane cost of living these days, but, today on Weird History Food, we are delving deep into the extreme - billed as the grocery store that caters to Celebrities and Influencers, Erewhon sells goods at astronomical costs most people can only laugh at. With most locations in California, what exactly IS this store that puts even Whole Foods to shame? And exactly how did it get this way? Have YOU ever shopped in on? What were your thoughts, if so?

$7 for one juicy strawberry🤪
$20-$22 for a smoothie named after dumb celebs🤡 Spend spend, spend cause you cant it with you when you die•

I predict that once federal tax law changes to pinch the income gap, Erewhon will pass on into the history books as a product of the Second Guilded Era.

I’ll stick to Trader Joe’s and Stop & Shop!

this makes me think of that episode of Weeds where Nancy Botwin realizes that the rich will pay ridiculous amounts of money on something just to brag about how much they spent, so she gets an idea and starts selling them overpriced weed making a killing profit off rich suckers

Erowhon should be government run and funded. And if you attempt to buy anything there. You’re euthanized for public good

The fact they make so much money based of branding and meech that is just a black back with their company name in white is proof capitalism is trash America is dead and the world is better off for it. We suck this sucks we should be dead this should be destroyed holy fucking shit I hate this world

I used to accompany my Mom when she shopped at the first Los Angeles location. Wholly different vibe to the store back then.

These over high priced markets are a scam its only so stupid people who are the industry will shop here to give them a reputation. Frankly people should grow their own food since most of farmers have been taken over and more than 40% of the food is fake and not organic or natural. No one should pay high prices for produce or anything else!

I can at least respect that they make their own products, or at least pay to have products made with their name on it.

@MikadoYuma
@

The only reason why their prices are so high is because there are so many gullible fools out there that are willing to pay a fortune for things that most people wouldn't pay even half that much for

This video is from over a year ago and NOBODY has mentioned how strange it is to buy a Sushi Sandwich right next to Antimicrobial Pubic Hair treatment ‽‽‽

the real rich people shop at trader joes, all the wealthy areas have them lol

@sascha-s7v

every UK shopping area has a holland and barratt which sells all of this. we do really need to shop from there more as now supermarkets are keeping chlorphyll ans all othrr suppliemnts and trying to kill it off

@sashamellon822

This is obscene! Kudos to the founder and marketing team for getting folks to pay these absurd prices.

We were in LA last fall and our hotel was across the street from Erewhon. You know things are weird when Whole Foods a mile away is the budget grocery store.

These are the same type of people who later in 1929 hung themselves after the market crash

20 some bucks for water huh, ya know... if you wanna gouge the "food" prices, go ahead, but that much for water!?! That is incredibly ridiculous!!! No water in the world should be worth that much!!!

@FatherManiacTTV
@

Maybe their prices have changed since, cause I have been looking on there and it ain’t that bad. Other than the $22 smoothies, the pizza is $11, blueberry’s were $7 I mean they aren’t unreasonable, but not the best.

@robocopjoey1

😮HOW do they stay in business? WHO is shopping there, WHAT are they buying, & WHY??

@TomikaKelly
@

I come from wealth and no I would never shop there. First off I shop at my local walmart and Aldi. The food is the same, I promise. Plus I like my Coca-cola! I doubt they even sell it there. Furthermore, even if I were inclined to waste that kind of money on food I would much rather spend it on an in home chef! You call spening thousands of dollars to do your own shopping and cooking a luxury?! 😂 These are the same idiots who drop $300 on t-shirt that says "supreme" in tiny letters. And most of those idiots will die poor due to those foolish spending habits.

Proof that celebrities and influencers are retarded.

@Tcbranger-o2w

Every single person who shops at that store should have to give an unhoused person five thousand dollars upon entry.

people can't afford groceries and gas, and then we have this, there is a reason why modesty is important.

These prices are not so bad if you consider the markup on the crap found in America super markets is terrible. So if it's double the price but 50x better like organic then you can make the case

How about Dorothy Lane Market in Ohio?

I stopped watching after it mentioned MOST stores are in LA ! Those morons can afford it !

If it is too expensive then you are not the target demographic.

I live in a yurt in Alaska with no running water or indoor toilet and I don't think those prices are really that high if they are what they say on their labels. It's pretty close to that here at normal stores.

@SleepingTiger22

Thank you, I had no idea I could feel so small by something such as this lol

@christopheralex6471

I love my fancy grocery stores. I may make a trip to LA just to check it out. When people recommend their fav restaurant in a city, I may or may not eat there. It's the boutique grocery stores and neighborhood farmers markets for me.

These are Walmart prices at best...

Even if i was wealthy i would not shop there

@ambercimburek6872

I used to wonder what's was wrong with celebrities being democrats, now I absolutely know that they're idiots and hypocrites causes they claim that they are for the working class people meantime they separate themselves from all of us having an exclusive and very super expensive supermarket. Any way is their call if they aren't that smart throwing away their money
