Tribal People Try Costco Food For The First Time
About this video
A break from the table. This Tribal People Try episode — "Costco Food For The First Time" — is about culture, and the first impressions are exactly what happened when the camera was rolling.
About these episodes
Culture and everyday life elsewhere: a New York apartment, a Japanese train, a supermarket, a gym, a wedding in another country, Western clothes, house prices, how people eat with a fork and knife.
What to expect
These are the episodes where the village meets the world's habits rather than its food. The prices of ordinary things — rent, a coffee, a haircut — get the biggest reaction of all.
The village view
Village life is family courtyards, farming, the mosque, the bazaar and tea. The comparisons are gentle, funny and often land on the same conclusion: the world is strange and home is fine.
About Costco
Costco is a warehouse club that sells in bulk; its food court has sold the same hot dog and soda for $1.50 since 1985.
