A Costa Rican food content creator recently took to TikTok to share her experience at an Amish store, bringing back memories of her time living in Indiana when she relished trips to this unique shop. In the video, she enthusiastically discusses the authenticity and quality of Amish products, renowned for their commitment to 100% organic and handcrafted foods.
"Years ago, I lived in Indiana and enjoyed visiting this Amish store, which specializes in 100% organic, chemical-free food made by them," says Mara on her channel @mividajugosa. "I just love it."
As she explores the aisles, she highlights various products, like cheese priced at $3.91 and cinnamon at $11.33, describing these prices as a "crazy good deal" because they rival those of a typical store but with superior quality. "This is American food, but from the old days. They have fresh things every day," she adds.
Additionally, she mentions her past experience working in an Amish bakery, affirming her knowledge of the dedication and effort these artisans invest in each product. "They make everything from scratch," she notes with admiration.
Her video has sparked interest among TikTok users, who are drawn to the Amish culture and culinary traditions that seem to transport them back in time. Comments from viewers include: "Oh my goodness, the prices are to die for, you could take home the whole store."; "In Pennsylvania, there are many Amish and Dutch, and everything is super cheap: pure honey, candles, vegetables, flowers, fruits, food, meats... all very fresh and pure. Visit Lancaster, Pennsylvania."; "I'm from Spain and always hear about hormones in chicken and such; going to an Amish market sounds like a great idea for getting good products."; "I visited an Amish community in Philadelphia and it was an incredibly pleasant experience; a cultural shock in how they live, eat, travel, dress, etc., but it's enriching to experience it."; "So affordable!" and "Amish markets are a wonder, not only for the quality of their products but for their prices," reacted users to the video from @mividajugosa.
