Bonzo posted:So how is the return policy on food? My new diet requires me to have protein bars as s snack and I found some that I may like but if I eat one and its awful, can I take the rest back? You'll be fine on returns as long as you have your receipt.

Yeah I love those protein bars too. They've become my lunch of choice when I'm at work and they go pretty well with coffee.

ArbitraryC posted:Yeah i did a doubletake when I read the sign, I dunno if they just mold a pizza shaped object out of grease or something but even cheap poo poo like dominos is less intense than that. Honestly not even that filling either which is why you see people in the food court with two slices all the time. The dogs otoh are actually p reasonble if you get one of the diet drinks with it, like obviously not nutritionally sound but you feel p satisfied with one and it's less than 500. We put a lot of cheese on those pizzas and the slices you are getting are (as said by someone else) double slices of what you take home. For reference we put 1.5 pounds of cheese on a full cheese pizza and 14 ounces on the others. Source: I work in a Costco food court

Im Ready for DEATH posted:Went to temple today, got a combo pie and a bunch of other stuff. They had pork shoulder butt for 1.99 a pound AND take off $4 at the register. So you know I got a giant hunk of meat. Now I gotta figure out how to cook it properly. Any tips are greatly appreciated. Got a pressure cooker handy?

Whenever I've got a pork shoulder handy I usually do the following: Quarter the shoulder along the bone, toss it with some sliced onions along with a spice mixture of cumin, coriander, oregano, garlic, dried peppers and some bay leaves. Add a cup or two of whatever liquid you like using (stock, water, beer) and cook that all at high pressure for around 30 minutes. When it comes out of pressure it should be shreddable (if it isn't then it needs a little more time in the cooker). After shredding I toss it and a little bit of the liquid it cooked in on a sheetpan, top it with a few tablespoons of brown sugar along with some lime juice and pop it all under the broiler for a few minutes. Serve on tortillas or kaiser rolls (or whatever you have handy that's breadlike)

The Midniter posted:Hey guy who works at Costco, how do they cook the Italian sausages? Ever since they introduced it I haven't been able to go back to the $1.50 dog and soda (with refill). It's so gloriously juicy and delicious, and the skin always has a nice char to it. Do they cook it under the chain broiler they use for pizzas? We literally toss them through the pizza oven about one and a half cycles to two cycles through.

If someone is just filling without moving the cup (and the flow is less than great) it just kind of ends up like yours did. It's worth checking your cup if you really care about your frozen yogurt intake or something.
