I got a Galaxy Tab A from TMobile and it's decent. I don't have a huge reason to own a tablet but I like watching youtube videos when I go to sleep. It's responsive and I could probably use it for a whole lot more but I'm lazy and don't care too much. My phone does most of what I want. edit: usually when I snipe I'd quote the previous post so that it maintains it's context but again, I'm lazy

My phone does most of what I want. if you had an iPad, literally any iPad, you’d probably actually use it for a lot more it’s crazy how awful Android is on tablet, even Samsung’s special fork of it which has gotten a lot more maintenance Google basically abandoned Android on tablet like six years ago back when everybody’s consensus was that tablets were only ever going to be for content consumption and now it’s biting them in the rear end Like, I’m not gonna pretend that iPad OS is close to replacing a laptop anytime soon, but it’s leaps and bounds ahead of where Android is. If you’re in the market for a tablet and the last time you checked in on iPad was 2014 or whatever it’s actually worth looking at, because even a $200 refurb or a hand-me-down from 2018 will blow anything else completely out of the water

I love the Kirkland mixed nuts and I also love peanuts on their own, but my pregnant wife dumped ton of peanuts into the Kirkland mix and now I don't even know. The only thing Kirkland brand mixed nuts should ever be combined with is dried fruit, like the huge bag of Ocean Spray cranberries. That's a great combo. Peanuts stay in your drat lane.

I noticed the Organic 3-pack of cardboard cartoned half gallon milk at the Costco near me no longer includes added fish oil. This is great news for my household, as my wife is vegetarian. Also, the fish oiled milk just tasted slightly different to me.

Take fish oil pills. I do every day. The don't taste like anything because they... are pills. Or eat sardines because they are incredibly healthy.

I eventually resorted to literally pan frying them from frozen covered with a lid on extremely low heat and a little oil to crisp them up, plus tons of sirracha. Horrible otherwise.

Toquitos to me are something you pick up drunk as poo poo at a gas station. I have never purchased them for myself while sober.

I like the cheap frozen taquitos. They're tasty after midnight with guacamole and they have nothing I'm allergic to in them.

Splurged on some king crab legs for a special dinner this weekend. If there is a food out there with a better effort to result ratio I'd love to hear about it. 5 min steam bath and served with some lemon wedges and melted butter, perfection.

Chinatown posted:WHERES THE loving Also Costco and Save Mart were my go to; then Save Mart cut their midnight hours down to 10pm so now I hit WinCo more often (across the parking lot from Costco actually). It's been how long and Save Mart expects me to forget that they used to be open until midnight, and that they were doing fine during the pandemic as everyone needed groceries. And yeah I don't hang out at Costco anymore since I need to hurry my hot dog back to the car before it gets cold and spread that mustard.

Got new tires for my wife's car this past weekend. Tire center guy said it'd be ~90 minutes so I leisurely ate a hot dog before doing my shopping as I had plenty of time. Despite being as careful as possible, I still dripped some mustard onto my shorts, which was disappointing. Then, not ten minutes into my warehouse shopping experience, I get a call that the car is ready, only around 25 minutes after I dropped it off. Ended up spending $1100 at Costco this past weekend., PBUC. Those asiago and pepper jack Whisps cheese cracker things are really good. Sadly, they didn't have the Jones Dairy Farm chicken meatballs, but they did have some breakfast-type chicken sausages made by the same company which I'm excited to try. Also, in my experience I've found the Kirkland Signature frozen salmon fillets to actually be higher quality and better-tasting than the fresh salmon they offer in the cooler meats section. It's also preportioned and individually wrapped, so I'm all in.

By being in the fish case and sold 'fresh', it's already had one freeze/thaw cycle on it. The cryovac'd stuff stays frozen from the processing boat to your freezer.

The Perdue panko breaded chicken nuggets are quite good. Easy meal when I don't feel like cooking anything beyond throwing a dozen or so in the toaster oven.

I get the fresh steelhead fillets with the skin on and hot smoke them. I buy the frozen salmon fillets for general use. Also a PSA - if you don't like salmon it's probably because you are overcooking it. I like to take the frozen salmon fillets, thaw them overnight, then generously salt and season with garlic powder, pepper, and paprika and pan fry on medium heat until they hit an internal temp of 125 F. They just melt like butter in your mouth.

I've tried a few of the different types of chicken nugget products from the 'co and the Just Bare ones are a lot better than the Tyson offerings that I've tried if you want to test those out.
