I've exercised so much loving self restraint not buying a pack of reko pizelles every costco trip because they're like 500 calories a piece and it's easy to eat like 30 in a sitting. Now my local grocery story has small packs of them and now i have to avoid the whole "ethnic" section.

calories are like vitamins where if you take 1000x your daily value the extra just passes harmlessly through you

Cream is expensive, how much would it cost you to buy a gallon of cream?

I assume my cost for cream is 200x what an ice cream manufacturer would pay for an order of 100 tons

Not to be mistaken for the cost of my cream

Look dude I'm not going to argue with some guy that warns people about the dangers of carbonated water, and also complains like a little bitch about "the lefties" in GBS threads ok? Go back to your fallout shelter and stroke your guns.

By the way you can easily look up the carbonation claim and understand that you're full of poo poo, but that would require science which you presumably don't believe in.

e: Just kidding I looked up literally the first google result for you, look I'm helping: https://www.healthline.com/health/food-nutrition/is-carbonated-water-bad-for-you#calciumloss-in-bones

Dude you gotta just ignore the people who make poo poo up about the dangers of carbonation and sugar substitutes. You’re not going to convince them otherwise because they didn’t arrive at their position through careful consideration in the first place.

Where does the rest of these Iberian pigs go? Can I get acorn-fed loins, bacon, ham hocks? Is there some high end Spam that’s solely from black pigs of Seville? And can I get it at Costco dot com?

I won’t pick on the samples because in my experience half the people anywhere in Costco are the type to jerk to a sudden and complete stop directly in front of you or leave their cart blocking an entire aisle. I’ve learned to be more aggressive about shoving peoples’ poo poo out of the way.

There little polish sausage shop delis here that make and sell their own so when i get the urge I go there.

the pancake was good but probably only because it was slathered in jam. you know the actual pancake tastes like dirt

If you're not using every bit of whatever you buy from Costco you're doing it wrong, but it does take some time to dial it in

I found out they're doing an audit on memberships on my most recent trip to Costco.

They said, You're account was flagged!" at the register, and it sent me into fight/flight. I mean only missed communion that one time this year.

But all they just wanted was to save me money with an executive membership :3:

Undershirts are generally meant to be tucked in so length is a positive to keep them from riding up after a while. Perhaps there’s a sack of wifebeaters in another aisle if you need something to wear to your teenager’s court hearing.
