A Brit holidaymaker was left stunned by how cheap food was in a Spanish supermarket.

Cavan O’Grady took his mum on holiday for her 63rd birthday.

They stayed with his aunt in the town of La Línea de la Concepción, near the border with Gibraltar.

But as well as enjoying the 30C (86F) sun, Cavan – known as Cav – said he was blown away by the local supermarket.

In one video, viewed 140,000 times on his TikTok page, the tourist filmed the goods and prices while out shopping for food in Carrefour.

It comes as Brits are struggling with food prices in the UK, as the cost-of-living crisis inflation has seen prices soar in the last two years.

The 27-year-old captioned the clip: “Spanish supermarkets are a different level.”

Cav, who comes from Birmingham, walked around the store while saying: “TikTok, I’m going to tell you something, Spain knows how to do it in these supermarkets.

“First of all, the place is absolutely massive.

“It’s unreal how fresh all this stuff looks, you’re just not getting this back home.

“This would make you want to eat like a king out here.

“And do you know what, price-wise, it’s so much cheaper here than it is back home.”

He added: “It’s another win for Spain.”

One local said: “Thank you very much for saying what no one ever says, there is good agriculture, livestock, fishing, we have everything in our country.”

Matthew added: “Mercadona is one of the crown jewels.”

“I live in Spain, it’s a lot cheaper to live there than in the UK, the bills are cheaper too,” said Mel.

Yolanda added: “Spain was a paradise not too long ago, but now it’s too expensive for our salaries.”

Cav, who runs a used car dealership called Apex Automotive Sales, told What’s The Jam: “It showed me how we’re getting absolutely had on products in the UK.

“I was genuinely overwhelmed by the quality and prices on offer in that Spanish supermarket.”

He also fell in love with the local gym, ranking it “10/10”.

The beefy car salesman, who recently celebrated a year “clean and sober”, said: “I just secured an absolutely nasty pump.

“Big up to this gym, man.

“I wanted to find a proper bodybuilding gym, which I found, and the gym is sick, the equipment’s sick, and the locals are really nice and friendly.

“I’ll definitely be hitting this up again soon.”

In another video, Cav said, “TikTok, I might actually move to Spain.”

While walking around town, he stopped to watch a local painting on an easel in the street.

“Where else can you get 31-degree heat and bro just painting a mural?

“This is the life for me.

“Might have to be a quick move here, lads.”
