Samadhi posted:Question for the thread: How do you feel about the families who let their kids push the carts in the store? Meh. The olds are worse. I see way too many adults block off an entire lane with one cart so they can check their phone or adjust their underwear. Not worried about mom trying to keep the kids occupied.

Not worried about mom trying to keep the kids occupied. 100% this, the people who bug me the most are always either oblivious singles or older couples just not paying attention to anything outside their bubble. Families with kids are usually on alert to keep the kids in line and if they’re lushing the cart they’re on a short leash! Also now you rarely see kids in store in covid times, I miss bringing mine out for grocery/costco shops

Gaius Marius posted:Wish I worked at your warehouse, The parents at mine seem to think we double as babysitters and just let their kids all over the drat place. And the loving families that leave their kids in the cart and you have to load the groceries around them, gently caress those people the plexiglass is there for a reason. Yikes that’s just nasty, I have not seen that. I do usually go weekdays just after lunch so most kids will be in school (classes are in school here) and I’ve really noticed very few people bring kids when grocery shopping these days as well at other stores.

Coredump posted:Hit us with that top 5 Taima I mean Gaius Marius. Yeah I can't remember any of the dishes names but bahn mi, but basing entirely off the Vietnamese place that used to be by my old house. They had this bao that was better than any I had at any chinese place. There was this sort of spicy pork broth soup that was dope, and some sort of dumplings in a transparent wrapper. Idk everytime I have pho, restaurant or pre packaged it's way too ginger forward with nothing to balance it out.

Any other year it would probably be absolutely packed until like an hour before game time, this year is anybody's guess though. Could be there will be more people since there will be many more small parties instead of a few big ones, could be people just don't give a poo poo since they aren't going to a big party.

I wasn't a fan of that Snapdragon Pho but these bibigo steamed dumplings are excellent. They come six in a tiny tray and I fill up one of the little indents with soy sauce and dip the little fellas in there.

Ok, so I'm a single person and the tub looks big...but is the bitchin sauce really that good? I don't know if I could finish it. It's been a month and I'm still not done with the brownies.

It really helps the Normandy Blend from getting too samey. It's close to Ray's Chicken Sauce. Kind of surprisingly sweet.

My mom buys those and it makes me wish I had a microwave (not really) because it's excellent diet food. See also, forget what they're called but they have these teeny chicken/cilantro dumplings that also rule and are also not horrible for you.

It's been a month and I'm still not done with the brownies. I am also single and I got a tub back in September. Just tossed out the last inch or so last week for getting moldy. I mostly liked dipping veggies in it, crackers also worked well, will probably get another tub next time I go to church if they have any.

About the thin crust pizzas burning: they do ok if you put them in a cookie tray instead of straight on the rack (I admit I didn't read the instructions closely enough to see if that was recommended). Pity I only figured it out by pizza 4 of 4. About the bibigo dumplings: the six-packs are way better than the small individual ones which come in a big bag, and don't come with sauce. One 6-pack is good for a lightish meal, they come with sauce, they're great. I got a big pack of the small ones a while ago, like 3 months, and I still have half the bag. I'm the only person in the family who eats them. Bitchin' sauce: Pennywise the Frown posted:I couldn't get close to finishing one before I threw it out. I also wasn't a huge fan. It was good of course, but not as great as everyone said it was. Seconded. I thought it was okay, I suppose, whatever. My wife didn't like it either and she normally likes that kind of thing. I had a chipotle tub. I tried it on rice and chicken, and various other ways. We had the chipotle version but I think that's all costco had.

This is the correct answer. I got a quarter of the way into it and it was a bit too much for me. Calorie wise its pretty heavy too.

Always love the idiots that try to line-cut before opening. Usually older people, their mask with nose uncovered, and they keep glancing at the line stretching beyond the building, and waiting for someone who had been waiting in said line since 30 minutes before open to let them cut in. I swear if Costco didn't limit poo poo, I would go in when the sale is on, buy $200 of cat litter, and leave. Not have to come back for months. Nope, they have to make it limit of 3 a day. Are people going to stockpile this poo poo like toilet paper?

That was a problem for me too, and a lot of why it took me so long to go through the tub, but sometimes it just really hit the spot. I felt like it was more flavorful hummus, and ofc with the calories since it's made from almonds.

Accretionist posted:Costco's real prize: Yes! This is fantastic for pretty much any use of chicken broth/stock EXCEPT for chicken broth based soups. Making chicken pot pie and need broth for the sauce? BTB! Making some mexican yellow rice? BTB! Making matzoh ball soup? Chicken broth. [edit] We didn't finish our Chipotle bitchin' sauce, but I appreciate the friends we made along the way to maybe 75% consumed. Ate so many baby carrots!

Re: clorox wipes Most people will go to Clorox wipes first, then Kirkland... And ignore the rest. We've had other ammonia-based wipes for months now but people tend to walk right past them. Your local warehouse probably has some; check the aisles, we had to move ours there because they don't sell as well.

There are three Costcos I bounce between for certain items, and only one of them carries Bitchin Sauce. It's just weird like that. One of them has an entire wall of instant ramen bowls, another only carries the Nongshim Tonkotsu and A-Sha.
