I go to costco 1-2x a week since it’s 5 mins away and its not super crowded like other areas of the country it seems so I dont buy a ton of stuff usually. Being healthier as of late so theyre great for fresh fruit, haven’t had the dog in months.

I like the Columbus herb turkey cold cuts that have been on sale. Not too salty tasting.

Didn’t see the turkey but I did see the Tso’s chicken and got some to try (sf Costco) They also have Kirkland Signature cloud knit equivalent women’s yoga pants for $10  The cinnamon bread has the mass of a dying star and I am so stoked to try it when I get home Edit: oh my god Knot My President! fucked around with this message at 22:02 on Feb 6, 2022 |

Is the cinnamon bread similar to the pancake bread from Trader Joe's, because if yes, keep me the hell away fr...give me all of it, NOW. Also had a slice of pizza last night for the first time in years and it reminded me of this time in middle school where all the cheese got pulled off the pizza on my first bite, and got stuck half way down my through and half way in my mouth causing me to choke. I was reminded of this because it happened again. I've had a pair of the Puma sweats in forest green for two years? They finally ripped a bit on the back just under the waist band. I picked up two more pairs in grey and blue. They're just too comfortable and converted me into a sweat pants person.

It’s like adult Cinnamon Toast Crunch on pcp in bread form. It’s 3.5lbs, three loaves, for $11 and my gf and I are both string beans and ate half of a loaf in several minutes and had to put it away

Person in front of me at checkout bought $1300 worth of groceries. I was waiting for them to wheel out a laptop or a TV or something but nope, just 2 carts and a flat filled with food. I was really questioning the size of my garage freezer after watching that go down.

I picked up Chipotle for dinner and ordered my bowl without salsa so I could smother it in 505 when I got home. It was great. That poo poo is so good.

Can you freeze the hatch chili if you divide it up? Last time I bought it I gave half the jar to a friend and still only at 95% of the remaining half before it started growing mold.

Works really well in my experience.

The Daisy Cottage Cheese heresy at my local store continues. When will Costco return to the light and stock Land O Lakes again? This in unconscionable.

I had a system with those almonds (along with the thin mint ones). I never took the bag out of the kitchen, and I'd take 2 or 3 out of the bag then be done with them for the evening. Any other snack I'm fine sticking to a serving size but those almonds... We grabbed a bag of dried watermelon yesterday, and it's surprisingly good. And while I'm disappointed at my Costco not having the butter cinnamon loaves, I'm sure it's for the best...

drat, I stood in front of the 505 chiles for a couple minutes today before putting them back, I just wasn't sure if I was going to go through that much of them and couldn't remember all the usage recs from this thread. I did finally get a sherpa blanket though, I couldn't think of any way I could possibly regret that. An employee even came to talk to me at the self checkout just to reaffirm how great they are. And yeah, those coconut almonds are crack. They get a rebate on them every once in a while too and then I literally cannot stop myself from buying them.

Those almonds are good af and i also use the "leave the bag in the kitchen" technique.

Went to church tonight and they didn’t have any of those vacuum packed chicken thighs or breasts. Just wings. Maybe they had pulled stock in for the night, but it was weird. Anyway I got some taiyaki and they’re good.

I bought the chiles a while back to make an enchilada sauce. Didn’t realize they were already salted and ended up with an extremely salty sauce. Diluting it with a whole bunch of sour cream helped but it was still salty. I have about a quart of the salty green sauce in my freezer. I’m thinking if I add a quart of unsalted stock I can use it as the base for a pretty good stew or chili this weekend.

Adding potatoes to things is a good way to ramp down the salt There was a recipe I did out of a Mexican book that used matchstick cut potato for some texture and to offset a fairly salty sauce

505 chile is a god-tier church item. We easily go through a jar in a week or two, just on morning egg-cups and a few assorted other things. Wish it was a little hotter, but that is my only complaint. Bought two jars last time I went because we don't go to the 'Co often enough for the rate we are consuming it.
