Jingleheimer posted:You know what was great? Working in a Costco that was going through an expansion/remodel. Went from the smallest warehouse in the Midwest to the biggest in the Midwest. It was so much fun working around contractors and them working around me. I'm so glad it's all over with now. This doesn't sound like it was a great experience at all though, OP?

KakerMix posted:I'm super spoiled for choice. Costco, Trader Joes, Lucky's, Whole Foods, Fresh Market, Sprouts, Publix, and of course Walmart and Target if I hate myself, all within 7~ or so miles of each other. CostCo is great but lmao if you think you can get everything you need there, especially fresh produce on demand. Fresh Market was p.deece (or at least VAR > 0) but they pulled up stakes and left the Milwaukee Metro super suddenly like 6 months or a year ago. They had great lavash crackers.

I just put some of the pre-cooked Tortilini (which is IMO) in a toaster oven for 12 minutes at 350. It didn't burn but I didn't moisten them so they were a little crisp. I'll have to try pre-soaking them in salt water before cooking them next time.
