3 reasons to visit your local supermarket when traveling

Translated by Bing
Besides popular sightseeing, dining, and shopping, the local supermarket is also a destination that visitors cannot miss on trips, according to Travel + Leisure.

Find delicious snacks


During a trip to France, the female reporter of the magazine Travel + Leisure stopped by a supermarket to find a snack when they didn't want to have dinner too early.


She and her boyfriend were intrigued by the poulet roti snack. The delicious taste, a mixture of herbs and not too heavy the smell of chicken made her very impressed.


After that time, every time I came to France or passed by supermarkets and convenience stores here, reporters looked to buy this dish. She even chose it as a sipping dish with wine on the last evening of the trip.



Discover the local culture in the most authentic way


When walking around the markets in Paris, the reporter noticed that people here often buy biscuits, juice in glass bottles, cheese and fresh food.


Observing and interacting with local products helps visitors have a more authentic view of the lives of the people here. This will be different and more obvious than when walking to see the streets or visiting museums.


In fact, a lot of tourists like to visit local grocery stores or supermarkets when they travel. When asking some friends about this activity, the female reporter received a lot of approval.


One person also gave the example of his favorite food Jaffa Cakes and Hob Nobs while living in London. These snacks are associated with their memories during their time there.



Reasons to come back


It won't be too hard to find tempting snacks. However, they will be prepared and have their own flavor in each different destination. This is probably the experience that many tourists want to explore when traveling.


While convenience stores or supermarkets may not be the first stop on your trip, visitors shouldn't miss them among other popular destinations either.


You will have a fresh and authentic look at the lives of the locals or simply find a favorite snack.
