I’m British and went on holiday to America – I can’t believe the dangerous items they stock in supermarkets

A British woman has been left shocked at the ‘unhinged’ products on sale at a top US supermarket.

A shopper named Hannah – whose TikTok provides useful shopping and parenting hacks – was left gobsmacked and thought her head would ‘explode’ after spotting the peculiar item on sale at a New Hampshire Walmart.

The mother was blown away not only by easy access to the dangerous product, but also its placement, which according to her video, was oddly placed near to kids’ toys.

In a clip posted on the platform, Hannah couldn’t believe her eyes when she stumbled upon a rack of loaded guns which customers could purchase at whim – and worst of all, its position next to display shelves of kids’ night lights.

Hannah also spotted a sophisticated variety of junk food, namely cake ingredients, which were all neatly ordered by type: including mixes, flavours and frostings – all of which she said gave her a ‘splitting headache’.

“Need anything from the shop honey?” “Oh yes, some broccoli, a tub of butter big enough to take a bath in, and a .44 calibre r-fle please” “Great, I’ll see you in a bit.” Like hello? You shouldn’t be able to wander into a supermarket, show some ID (oh and i bet it’s always legit!) and just buy something that dangerous. And the fact that two aisles away you can buy a large print Daily Devotionals For Kids is unhinged. Some consistency, at least, please! #walmart #america #cultureshock

I’m British and went on holiday to America – I can’t believe the dangerous items they stock in supermarkets

Hannah – also known as ‘thrivingwithHannah’ on TikTok – says she was left shocked by the ‘unhinged’ products on sale at Walmart (Pictured: Hannah on TikTok)

The mother was surprised to see Dolly Parton cake mix

She noted that the British were accustomed to at best, four variations at Tesco, and that containers here were much smaller in comparison.

‘I’m in Walmart in America and my head is actually gonna explode,’ said Hannah. 

‘I’ve been in here five minutes and I’ve got a splitting headache. My eyes actually hurt. I need to show you some of the most unhinged stuff in here – but it’s pretty cool’.

At first Hannah noticed a unique selection of cake mixes branded by Country music legend Dolly Parton. Among them were cinnamon swirl, banana nut and blueberry flavours.

While she was initially ‘100 per cent onboard’ with the sweet treats, she was left shocked by what she saw next as she made her way up and down the aisles.

As she walked through the supermarket, she gestured to the astounding displays of ready made cake mixes and ingredients. 

‘I just can’t get over it – this is just cake mixes and just cake frostings’ she continued.

‘In Tesco we’ve got like four. Everything is giant, I feel like a borrower. [And] look at this’.

She then pointed to a collection of butter shortenings and noted how big the tubs were. 

Next, the content creator moved onto the ‘best’ and ‘absolutely mental’ part, which she described as an ‘archery target in the shape of a bear’.

But little did Hannah know that something even more bizarre was lurking around the corner. 

She said: ‘If you just fancy coming and purchasing a weapon with bullets, you can do… and then I’m standing here looking at the guns and then here’s your kid’s night light’.

In the video, a glass and wooden display was the only barrier blocking access to a large exhibit of rifles.

The guns were tagged in two places, including what appeared to be small white dockets displaying various prices.

‘What the… America, are you okay?’ she asked visibly shocked.

It didn’t end there. According to the influencer, she saw ‘acorn raid deer attraction’ – an attractant used to hunt deer – ‘so you can [inaudible] the deer’.

Hannah made a throaty sound while making a slashing gesture – perhaps indicating the product was meant for the killing of deers. 

‘Oh I feel very overwhelmed’ she said. ‘I need a nap’.

After her round up of the bizarre experience, she concluded that there were some ‘awesome things’.

‘Everything you could ever want is in Walmart. It is quite the experience’ she added.

‘I will be getting stuff for my kids and I will do a haul’.
