Laterite posted:what's laoganma? Not much what's laoganma with you? It's a Chinese chili oil hot sauce with several varieties, usually with little salty bits like fried onions, fermented black beans, or rutabaga or peanuts. It has many imitators at this point.

Smugworth posted:I keep burning (literally, heh) through jars of these dried chilis in oil from Trader Joe's. Does anyone know if Costco carries such a thing, perhaps in a larger jar? The flavor is wonderful and the heat is intense. Love using chili crisp with refried rice and leftover chicken bits then integrate an egg in the fried rice.

All this chili crunch talk got me craving some Chinese at breakfast time, so I threw a few slices of that fancy rear end Costco jamon in some congee with a bit of sautéed asparagus and it was divine. I was worried it would be a bit too salty with the doufu ru but it was perfect. A highly recommended method of ingress to ham heaven.

The chicken yakisoba kit is pretty good, thanks to whoever brought it up earlier in the thread. It takes less than ten minutes to prepare and it's a good amount of food. Leftover yakisoba and kim chee for lunch today (and 1.5 liters of water, thanks for looking out for my salt intake). I'm buying and eating that durian this weekend while my wife is at work. Gonna see if my kid will give it a shot.

There's a super sweet Costco that just opened up in Mexico. There's a park on the roof and it has a parking garage with a soccer field on the top. https://www.archpaper.com/2022/10/new-costco-mexico-citys-santa-fe-district-sprawling-urban-park/

Is that a park made entirely out of astroturf?

Looks like the actual city park is just behind the building. The roof of the Costco is a green roof with real plants, not sure if those are walking trails or designs.

That kit makes 4 big servings; two for myself and wife for dinner and two leftover for work lunches. I also make some of the frozen veggie spring rolls as a side, which are pretty good.

I've never encountered durian before but I thought it was supposed to smell bad but taste amazing? So why are so many people saying it tastes as bad as it smells?

I had some durian hard candy once and the taste went from sweet and creamy to spoiled chicken. In other words, delicious

I grew up around durian eaters and the very thought of durians right now is making me sick. If you don’t get it you never will.

My 9 year old nephew is in the family white elephant for the first time this year. For fifteen American dollars I walked out of Costco with a set of two nerf blasters. Truly I’ve never spent so little money to make other people clean up so much mess. PBUC

Someone put a hatchet in the office white elephant around 2018. I won it, of course. Made me feel so uncomfortable having it at my desk that I took it to my car in the parking lot.

I got a loving gift card to a gas station today at a work white elephant. Why did you even bother to participate if that's all the effort you're going to put into it? She got the awesome screaming goat statuette I brought which was like an extra sucker punch. Wendigee fucked around with this message at 11:20 on Dec 10, 2022 |

They’ve been handing out $100 gas cards to me every month for 9 months now. I drive an EV so I sell it to a coworker for $60.

Ours was a ten dollar limit. I haven't checked the card but if it's really 10 bucks for a far starting I'm going to slash their tires Edit: Oh I somehow didn't mention that this was a white elephant gift exchange Wendigee fucked around with this message at 11:20 on Dec 10, 2022 |

I thought that white elephant gifts were essentially supposed to be gag gifts.
