American visits Tesco for first time and is floored by 'insane' food Brits 'love'
An American visited Tesco for the first time, and she was left surprised by the popular British supermarket and how it differs to shops in the US. Tals documents her travel journeys online, and she recently headed to Tesco to experience what it's like to pick up essential items at the supermarket.
The content creator, who's known as travellingwithtals on TikTok, said it quickly became her "favourite place" after visiting as she was blown away by a few things. She was left in "awe" of the supermarket, and quickly started to ask questions about how things worked at the popular store.
One thing she was particularly interested in was meal deals. After being told how the deal works by a member of staff, she admitted she was left spoilt for choice at what to pick - it seems as though she fell in love with meal dealsjust has quickly as Brits did though they have recently been shaken up.
In the clip, Tals said: "This is insane. How does this not exist in the United States? I'm literally in awe. I would eat this every single day.
"You can get a protein shake as part of the meal deal. Is this only in London? Is this in England? Where is this? Because this is crazy.
"Don't judge me - I literally got some sort of dunk thing. I was too overwhelmed - I just picked the first thing I saw. How did I not find out about Tesco meal deals until today?"

She admitted she felt like she "stepped into another world" after making the foodie discovery. As well as being "so cheap", she thought it was amazing that there was so much to choose from too.
At the time she visited, the meal only set her back £4.00, which she thought was pretty great. While she admitted the sushi she picked up was "nothing special", she said it tasted fine and was actually "much better" than US supermarket offerings.
Tals was so impressed by the idea of the humble meal deal that it actually caused her to "fall in love" with Tesco. Sometimes it's the littlest things that really do please people.
The video has been viewed over 4,000 times since it was shared, and people were quick to comment too. They offered all sorts of different ideas.
One said: "That's a little Tesco. Wait until you see a big Tesco." Another added: "You need to get a Clubcard and it will be cheaper."
Someone else also chimed in with: "Not only Tesco do meal deals, and this is UK-wide, not just London. Love a meal deal."
Tals is one of many Americans who document their travels online and report their findings. She left a few people chuckling with her tale about Tesco.

Lottie Moss reveals nightmare British Airways flight and exclaims she's had the 'worst experience' as she returns home from St. Tropez trip
Lottie Moss has detailed her nightmare flight after she landed in London Stansted on Saturday evening. The socialite and half-sister of Kate Moss took to her Instagram to update her followers about the mishap that happened on her way back from St. Tropez in the south of France. Supermodel Lottie, 27, tagged British Airways in her Story, where she appeared to be complaining about the airline. She explained how she was feeling worse for wear after going out five nights in a row and was still stressed as her luggage had yet to arrive on time. Wearing oversized sunglasses in her video, Lottie began: 'I cannot explain to you - please ignore my voice, I've been literally out every night for the past five nights in St Tropez - but, I've had the worst experience with British Airways today, I cannot even tell you. 'My journey starts at 8am and it's literally not even finished yet because the bags haven't arrived. The plane was four hours late.' Lottie went on to share how when the flight landed, passengers had to wait for a further 25 minutes before they were allowed off the flight. She continued: 'We landed, sat on the tarmac here for like, 25 minutes, and the bags still aren't here. It doesn't say awaiting baggage, it doesn't say baggage completed.' Visibly agitated, she added: 'I'm gonna lose my f**king mind.' Daily Mail has contacted British Airways for comment. Lottie was holidaying in the French Riviera alongside Love Island's Grace Jackson and model Roxy Horner. She was there on a brand trip for Bydee swimwear, and flashed her sensational physique in a jaw-dropping mirror selfie. The stylish bikini snaps come after it was reported earlier this month that former Only Fans creator Lottie is using her personal diaries to write a biography about her childhood and turbulent life in the spotlight. Lottie will not hold back as she reflects on her battles with alcohol and substance abuse issues, according to the Sun. It's understood that she has kept written and video diaries since she was a teenager and will be using them to reference her colourful past. An insider said: 'Lottie has always been known as Kate's little sister — but this is her chance to tell her side of the story. 'She has kept written and video diaries since she was a teenager, so will be compiling all her scribbles and memories into the book. 'Lottie is excited to tell the truth about her struggles with body image, addiction and relationships.'

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) TORVILL and Dean have scored a Perfect 10 after banking a whopping £5million bonanza as they retire from ice skating. The pair performed together for the final time last weekend as they wrapped up their farewell tour in their hometown of Nottingham. 2 Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean received 12 perfect 6.0 scores to win gold at the 1984 Winter Olympics in Sarajevo Credit: Getty - Contributor Fresh accounts for Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean's skating company Waikiki Limited show they are in great shape off the ice too, after amassing assets of £5m including £620,000 cash in the bank. The accounts, covering the year to 27 October 2024, showed a huge increase of £542,000 compared to the previous year. That works out at earnings of over £10,000 a week. Christopher, 66, and Jayne, 67, were coaches on Dancing On Ice from 2006 until it ended the first time around in 2014. When the ITV show returned in 2018, they became head judges on the panel alongside Ashley Banjo and Oti Mabuse. It was confirmed in March that the ITV show had been shelved with no plans for a new series. Former Dancing On Ice pro Alex Murphy suggested Torvill and Dean's plans to retire might have had something to do with the show being axed. She told The Sun: 'Torvill and Dean are national treasures. They are fantastic people, and the most iconic skaters in the skating world as a whole, not just England, and I think Britain sometimes doesn't recognise that, or even notice that they are iconic to the world. 'So it's their show. I just love that. It's their show. So whenever they're ready, I think, then that's when it will go.' The pair, both from Nottingham, first partnered in 1975 and have skated together ever since.
