So obviously you need to eat 3-4 hotdogs daily.

you can buy alcohol at self checkouts here but it makes you wait for an employee to come over and look at your ID then they do a magic cheat code on the machine that let's you proceed

California won't allow alcohol at self checkout but they make up for it by selling you 2L of vodka right next to the beer

Cast iron chat - definitely wash them properly with soap. The most important thing is don't soak them, and especially don't soak them with vinegar. Hell I have a piece of stainless chainmail that I use as a scourer when I get poo poo really baked on and can't be bothered heating it up for another quench. My seasoning is slick and hard as gently caress. Also don't be sucked into "fancy" cast iron unless it's enamelled (and even then I don't think my lecruset Dutch oven is much better than my mum's aldi one) Mostly as long as the casting is nice and even without flaws and it has the handle design that suits then it'll outlast your grandchildren. As a race we've been making them a long time and the technology required to make a good one is pretty basic. My $6 IKEA cast iron pan is easily as good as my lodge pan apart from missing detailed branding on the handles - i just use the lodge one more because it's larger.

I wish I took pictures of my grandfather's cast iron skillet when I got a hold of it. It was a wedding present when my grandparents got married and it was passed to me when they died so it's pretty special. My grandfather only used it to deep fry food and it was in real rough shape when I got it. I don't think he subscribed to the "never use soap" mindset, I think he just never bothered cleaning it properly. The entire thing was covered with such a thick layer of old grease that could hardly believe it. you know how pot handles usually have a little hold on the end of them for a hook? That was completely closed up with old layers of grease. It was so bad that when I first grabbed the handle, I physically could not let go without several minutes of trying to work soap in under my hand so it'd release from my skin. Everything that touched that skillet became fused and required a poo poo ton of work to get it to release. After about a half hour of scrubbing under soap and water I got it improved to "now it simply hurts to let go instead of being impossible". At this point I was tired of scrubbing and concerned with all the water that the okay parts of it would start to rust, so I gave it a quick wipe down with oil and threw it in the oven for it's first season (despite being far from perfect, and plenty of bits of paper towel stuck to it that I couldn't get off) It took me a few weeks but I eventually brought that old boy back to life, and I love it dearly. It took a lot of cleaning, a lot of time in the oven, and a lot of use, and now there's no remnant of it's original condition left. It's a perfect looking cast iron skillet. Or at least, was perfect looking, until I threw it under my oven's broiler (it was a tiny apartment!) to hide it when I had guests coming, then forgot about it for several weeks. The constant cycling of heat caused the coating on the inner sides to start cracking and peeling off. I'm fully aware that isn't the season but, still, for a while I had flakes of something cast irony falling off that was pretty dangerous to be in food. More scrubbing, oven time, and general use and it's stopped with the flaking poo poo and the bare spots have a fresh new beautiful season on, but the whole thing is uneven looking and I'm still a bit nervous to do breads, pizzas, or anything that raises up the sides. I'm tempted to grind the whole thing down with a Dremel and start it from scratch. Renegret fucked around with this message at 14:35 on Jun 29, 2021 |

Renegret posted:I'm tempted to grind the whole thing down with a Dremel and start it from scratch. Probably easier to either burn or chemically remove the seasoning. A self cleaning oven or upside down in the coals of a firepit will do the job, then a light sand and a proper seasoning in the oven. I've heard that a log soak submerged in vinegar will remove it as well. Edit: the Reddit link below seems to say that self cleaning oven or fire might be a poor choice and the chemical methods are better norp fucked around with this message at 15:28 on Jun 29, 2021 |

These are really good for stripping cast iron down to the metal. Don't know if they sell em at 'stCo.

FogHelmut posted:Can't buy alcohol at self checkout. Last week I bought a case of beer through the self checkout, the lady with the scanny gun spotted it right away and came and rang it in for me and did the computer magics. Yesterday, a couple was trying to buy some vodka popsicle things(?). They were definitely booze and the guy at the self checkout stopped them and took them away and said they couldn't buy them through the self checkout. Same store, so YMMV?

Say it with me here, “you have to do it the same time as me! Keep the rhythm! Keep the speed!! I am! I AM PADDLING!” Just record that, attach it to the back of a single kayak, and play it on a loop while she goes out and you sip a beer

I thought the Costco business center near me was re-doing their food court section while they were closed to the public during the pandemic, but the nice cashier told me today that it's permanently gone. Can't be too mad though, it turns out the construction in that area was for a new employee break section. Products-wise, we now get Waterloo seltzers alongside Polar and Lacroix, which is nice because more flavors, yay! Got a case of watermelon and a variety case with mixed berry, strawberry, and lemon-lime. Also got a box of Fat Boy ice cream sandwiches, and they are indeed pretty fat. Nothing remarkable, but the vanilla ice cream is decently rich and thick and it's got the classic chocolate "cookie" that melts to your fingertips. Oh, and the Kirkland trail mix is very good for a trashy trail mix, a good amount of cashews and almonds in the thing. I'm already regretting having the giant bag around, I need to portion this thing out or I'm gonna eat entirely too much in a sitting one day.

I'm gonna get my Karen on tomorrow when I go back to Costco tonight and tell them this story. We were getting gas and I had my Costco Citi card and the attendant walked up and I said "$25 of r-" and he cuts me off and goes "REGULAR OKAY" and takes the card and walks to the pump and I was like to my wife "wow that guy is in a hurry, he knew what I wanted I guess because everyone gets regular or something?" Anyways, the pump dings and I look back and see I've been charged $47 and it's filled my tank. The guy comes around and I say "Hey man, uh, I said $25" and the attendant was like "Bwuh?" and I was like "yeah I said $25, didn't you hear me say that? I didn't say 'fill it up' or anything" and he goes "UGH. I MEAN I DUNNO MAN I DIDN'T HEAR YOU SAY THAT, MAYBE YOU NEED BETTER COMMUNICATION OR SOMETHING MAN." and I go "uhh well I wasn't looking because I said $25 and gave you my card... so... can I get an overfill slip?" and he's just extremely pissy about it as he gets it and says "LIKE HONK THE HORN OR WAVE ME DOWN WHEN YOU SEE IT". Basically every time I go there and I say I want $25 the attendant will repeat it back to me for confirmation, but this guy never did. I have a feeling he was pissed off that I was wearing a mask but regardless it's some shameful poo poo to blame ME for his fuckup. It's weird, Costco is known for having good customer service from its highly paid and benefitted employees who are supposed to be happier and helpful because they don't fear bankruptcy and medical bills and whatnot but at my city's Costco I've had numerous absolutely dogass customer service encounters. I hope they talk to this guy and tell him to slow down for 0.25 seconds to confirm each amount instead of just speeding by and grabbing the card, and also not to act like an rear end in a top hat and blame the members for his own fuckups.
