In Germany too. You get the soup veggies in a bundle.

They do similar in the UK, though frequently far less exotic.
Sometimes whole ingredients, sometimes ready-prepared.

Soup! Chop it up, chuck in a fistful of chopped chicken and a smattering of assorted spices and simmer.

Some US grocery stores will have similar things. Like packaged veggies/herbs meant for grilling, or for making a stew, etc.

In an American supermarket, this would cost at least 3x the price per pound of buying them individually. Â

In Hong Kong, you usually get green onions or onions or cheap veggies for free when you buy something, in wet market. You need to negotiate though. A lot of people never bought green onions in their life until they emigrated because it was free.

We’ve got this in Oz too. Soup Mix Veggies (root vegetables, onion and a couple sticks of celery), stuff for stir frys, I’ve even seen some veggie starter kits for things like Zucchini Slice and Apple Crumble.

That’s actually a smart system – you get exactly what you need for a meal without having to buy bulk. In the US you’re stuck buying a whole bag of onions even if you only need one or two. This seems way more practical for people who shop daily instead of weekly.
