As he browses the shelves, he’s left gobsmacked at the prices, even spotting a tomato worth £40.
Once he discovers the hampers, which look to include an array of different fruits, the 26-year-old selects one and staff are quick to gift wrap the £500 hamper.
In a follow-up clip, Carmie describes opening up the hamper as “literally Christmas” before he shows off what’s inside.
Unwrapping the giant box, Carmie shows off the 12 fruits inside and says each comes in their “own designer bed”, when referring to their packaging.
Discussing the price, Carmie says: “The fact that there’s only 12 fruits in here and it cost that much is crazy.”
