I got the Kirkland Greek yogurt, probiotic granola, and frozen spinach frittatas for breakfast on this work trip and they're all pretty dang good. Definitely beats burger king breakfast every morning.

bob dobbs is dead posted:your average swordfish fillet has like 2-5 parasite bits in it one of my first jobs was working at a seafood restaurant and watching the head chef clean fresh swordfish was very illuminating. He took about the same amount of time to portion the main swordfish steaks out as he did cleaning and pulling / slicing out parasites. super gross! that said, marlin is delightful and salmon with some good butter is a great treat.

The Sam's by my house is pretty decent, but it seems to be the exception to the rule. I grabbed some Grillo's pickle chips last time I was at church though and those things are absolutely amazing. Worth the trip just to stock up on those. The wildbrine kraut is pretty good too.

NewFatMike posted:But really I don't know. It's just another store like Costco/Sam's Club. I've never been to Sam's club but BJ's is fine. They have a better selection of name brand items and you have more options for specific goods, but overall there's less variety, if that makes any sense? When I walk to isles of Costco, I end up filling my cart with way too many impulse purchases of poo poo I've never seen before but looks good. BJ's just doesn't do that to me. But can buy things like ring dings, and have different choices between brands of peanut butter, three different choices of flavor for babybel cheeses, and there's a Deli section which is cool. You want diapers? Pampers, Huggies, and Luvs, in every size, and multiple brands of wipes. But you're not going to walk down the freezer isle like a kid in a candy store buying random poo poo that looks good, you have what you would expect to find in a grocery store in bigger quantities. Bakery sucks rear end too.

With vaccination and the end of pandemic isolation comes not having a beard anymore and actually shaving regularly. Something I hate. I figured I'd try a ncie electric razor and apparently Braun makes the best ones, the "Series 7" and the "Series 9" with the 9 being the cadillac of electric razors and costing at least 100 bux more than the 7. Was mulling which one to get and figured hey wait, I wonder if costco sells these? Costco does sell them, the Series 9 on their website, the best one, for at least 70 dollars less than amazon or anywhere else. Thanks, costco!

And if it's not that it's going to be close to that, like $25 gift card or $30. Actually they're running that deal above now, sans the free food I think (or maybe all new members get free food coupons, dunno). Sidenote: Despite me being a cheap bastard and loving free stuff, I have never worked up the will to sign up for Sam's Club. Almost did, once, when it was basically free and had free food, but still when I have Costco which just always works (except for this whole condiment debacle. 7-Eleven across the street has relish AND chopped onion packets. Just saying Costco; you're getting clowned by 7-Eleven). Sometimes Sam's Club has some good deals for ship to home stuff but that's few and far between. I just happen to know about their membership promos because I see them during my workday often enough. BeAuMaN fucked around with this message at 11:05 on May 12, 2021 |

I bought Grillo's Pickles once and I liked them but after like the first week or two the container started filling with gas such that every time I opened it I was waiting for it to blow up all over the place. Kinda weird.

Am I remembering correctly that occasionally Costco has good sales on chest freezers? I'm looking to get one to compliment our tiny-as-gently caress one in the fridge, mostly because I'd like to have more frozen meats/veggies/single meals on hand. Also debating stopping by tonight even though I don't really need anything.
