Got an email from church on Tuesday:quote:Dear Costco Member, It listed a couple dozen batch numbers that were affected. None of the three bottles I have in the house matched up but it was nice that they let me know.

It's some persons job is to pound back shot after shot of kirkland vodka to make sure it matches their taste profile. Probably a real life Jim Lahey.

I'm just curious what exactly would deviate enough from a well vodka "taste profile" to require a recall. As someone who used to drink a poo poo-ton of cheap vodka I'm really curious what the problem was here.

As someone who also used to drink a poo poo ton of really cheap vodka, the bad stuff can taste kind of oily, is the best way to describe it. If you've ever had Popov (common west coast bottom shelf) that's the taste profile I remember it having. Some absolutely bottom tier liquor is industrially brewed grain spirits that are then flavored, so I could see that getting hosed up somewhere along the line. Dunno if Kirkland brand is that kind of rot gut though.

If you've ever had Popov (common west coast bottom shelf) that's the taste profile I remember it having. I drank my share of Popov, but my preferred cheap brand was Country Club. If they were aiming more for the latter and ended up with the former then I guess that makes more sense. Glad I quit drinking a long time ago.

Maybe a French vodka? I don’t remember and can’t be bothered to look it up, but that’s the gist of the rumor I heard

Kirkland French vodka is just a good copycat. The American vodka is a Tito's knockoff. They're not copacked but the quality is identical. Normally, before this recall, which was apparently caused by a bit of a batch of rum getting mixed in.

I was at the Miller brewery a few years ago and on their lines at the time was Milwaukee's Best Light, which imo, tastes very similar to Miller Lite but is about 2/3rds the cost at most. They're not the same of course but they're made on the same equipment.

Grey Goose made a giant pile of vodka, decided to sell 80% of it, and the rest went to Costco. That hasn't been accurate in a decade or more though. She didn't say who the then current producer was, and I'm sure it's someone different by now anyway.

Bought an ultrawide monitor that I ended up returning this morning since i had the day off. It was like 10:30 and I was in line for the only rep doing returns and some boomer behind me just couldn't fathom having to wait and interrupted the rep doing a return to ask him to open another register and then made a statement about how "we're all members". Yep, and we're all waiting together. I hate the morning olds.

Way back in the day I had a supervisor respond to an irate customer who was yelling at him to "just open more registers" by handing him a job application lol Open more registers, the customer yells, as 28 of 30 registers are open and every employee in the building who is trained to operate one is already on one.

I don’t remember and can’t be bothered to look it up, but that’s the gist of the rumor I heard Kirkland has two vodkas, a Grey Goose knockoff, and a Tito's knockoff. I haven't opened the Tito one yet to see how it compares. The only one of their boozes I didn't like was the spiced rum, it was just foul. I have a bottle of the new 12 year mixed scotch i'll have to try at some point. And their Jameson copy.

840 calories in a chicken bake 370 calories in a polish sausage 680 calories in a combo slice 10-15 calories in onions 200-250 calories for a fountain coke at Costco. Let’s assume the low end and count only three cokes. 2500 calories in one sitting. I would think a goon could do more.
