I think if you ask for another can they gotta give you it. Theoretically you could drink enough cans and deposit them all in the Costco Can Deposit Center and get enough nickels for a profit.

Zombie Dachshund posted:This is all true. But my homemade stock goes into quart containers in the freezer for things like soup, risotto, etc. It’s a hassle to thaw that much and sometimes you just want to add a little extra oomph to a dish.* A spoonful of BtB is an easy way to add some salt, MSG, and flavor to something I’m cooking. Add the BtB to your homemade stock to get more stock per stock in your stock

Around my wife's birthday, she received a set of pots and pans in the mail from costco.com. There was no note with it or anything indicating who it was from. We put the word out on Facebook and no one claimed it. She called up Costco and they could not find the order and could not determine who sent it. They asked us to go to Costco and have someone at the store look it up. The clerk at the store was baffled. They said that the order number was not a real order number and they have no idea where it came from. They're investigating to find out who or where it's from. The shipping label clearly says costco.com, but it is a mystery.

namlosh posted:How long does this take? There was a northern exposure episode where Adam the chef discussed it in mythical terms and I was always curious lol oh gosh, it’s not that bad. A couple of hours, I guess? It has been a while. The main thing is that you need to keep the temperature under close watch to avoid burning, and stir it every so often. I just don’t have the patience for that nowadays.

At my Costco the food court has not been selling the roast beef sandwich, because they are so short staffed that they can't spare one person to do the apparently time consuming prep work on them, everything else has a higher priority. It's a shame because this specific Costco was actually good about putting a lot of roast beef in the sandwiches to the point where it was almost worth spending the money on it.

Okay, I didn't mean for what started as a quick reply to this to turn into a long rant but oh well.Gaius Marius posted:Probably getting all their people dragged back to Bakery No, when I say they're short staffed I'm saying there isn't even anyone for the bakery to take if they wanted to. Deli employees are supposedly responsible for making the roast beef sandwiches and they can't even keep up with their own production. I've made a few comments here and there to the deli people that it would be nice to get a roast beef sandwich for lunch, and every time they just laugh in my face. They just hired people for the holiday season though, so maybe things might change for the slightly better, but probably not because the few people we do have are already doing the work of 2 or 3 people and don't have time to train people properly. Oh, and the trash compacter has been down for a couple weeks and probably won't be fixed for a couple more weeks. So we have to deal with open top dumpsters which fill up quickly, and until they drop off a new one we have to scramble to find bins to keep putting trash into. Good thing we're not having a big corporate walk any time soon oh wait, actually the CEO of Costco is going to be there week after next. So management is freaking out about everything and the only good thing to come of all this is that for the first time since I've worked there, there is a store wide blanket approval for overtime. If my job isn't done when I'm supposed to leave, instead of being kicked out like I normally would to avoid overtime I get to stay as long as it takes to get it done (usually no more than 15 minutes but they wouldn't care about an hour of OT). Costco is great and all, but it's still a grocery/retail store, and working at one has its own Costco sized bullshit problems that people in the industry always complain about. At least management for the most part actually gives a poo poo about us lowly workers.

Japanese Costco now has some shrimp fillet burger, it's all right I guess. I also tried the western cabbage Jongga, it's too sweet, like eating coleslaw that's been dipped in kimchi sauce.

Those nut bars really are mostly nuts. They're high in fat with a small amount of protein. Good amount of fiber. That's basically the nutrient profile of nuts.
