Food / Comparison of supermarkets in Poland. Which one is the cheapest? [33]

Hi,

I'm just wondering which of the dozens supermarket might actually be the cheapest?

Maybe Biedronka for certain products whilst it's definitely not for all of them?! Pumpkin seeds for example are definitely cheaper in Carrefour.

Well, what I haven't seen yet are organic products in conventional supermarkets. Do they exist or do I have to go to a special organic shop for them?

Cheers!

I have to thank all of you for your replies.

So to sum up it's Biedronka, Lidl, Auchan and Tesco that tend to be the cheapest.

As for the organic products in those supermarkets. Do they have the official EU certificate label?

And to add something to the natural but not officially organic discussion.

I can imagine that the Polish agriculture is not that pressured to a few big enterprises with extensive usage of chemical substances such as in countries like Germany or Spain.

However, when it for example comes to meat that is sold in Biedronka. Can I assume that those animals were not hold under species-appropriate conditions to ensure those low prices?
