About our Bacon Score methodology
YouTube Video Description

After spending a month in Montevideo, Uruguay, we headed to one of the country’s largest grocery stores to see what everyday life really costs. In this video, we shop at Tienda Inglesa, compare prices to similar grocery trips we did in Argentina and Chile, and show exactly what we paid. We break down the receipt, compare identical or similar items across all three countries, and reveal which country gave us the best value. We also visit a local feria (street market) to see whether shopping local saves money and whether it’s worth the trip compared to a major supermarket. Along the way, we share a few surprises, a couple of disappointments, and some products we probably wouldn’t buy again. If you’re considering slow travel, digital nomad life, retirement abroad, or an extended stay in Uruguay, this video gives you a real-world look at food costs and grocery shopping in Montevideo.
