I always think a churro sounds good but then I contemplate a dry-rear end churro vs. an ice cream. If the churros came with a little pot of dark hot fudge, it would have changed the game.

This peanut butter pretzel shortage was annoying for a while but now I'm starting to feel a little panicked and on edge. Should I start hoarding food and medical supplies?

My church has them and they've never left the shelves.

Pork loin is $8 off through tomorrow, which means you can get a huge hunk of protein for $8-12.

I saw these in the wild visiting not my usual church and could not resist picking one up even though my freezer is pretty stocked (moreso with them finally having tilapia in stock, and skin on salmon on sale also). Good stuff, probably going to end up as pulled pork and tonkatsu.

Also they had the peanut butter pretzels in stock, maybe they’ve figured out the supply issues?

Check if it is on instacart for your store.

instacart doesn't have item numbers I can see, but I found it on costcobusiness instead of regular costco.com.

it was mid-at-best teriyaki and pineapple meatballs, turns out. but when the reciept just reads MEATBALL that's not a lot to go on :v:

they aren't as good as they used to be (like everything), but i still get one to go with my dog most times. will be disappointed if they take them away. guess i should start thinking about what dessert item should replace it. the other poster's suggestion of ice cream is a good one, though it's a pretty big serving. i like the strawberry since they took away the chocolate. but it's no substitution for baked goods

Did you try just googling "Costco" and the item number? If it's available on the website it'll show up that way but won't show up if you search for the item number on Costco.com.

I'm honestly cool with the people who park weird.

The only thing lame enough to get me mad n sassy at Costco is the people who park their stupid loving cart in a random flower bed or whatever because the closest cart receptacle thing has the gall to be upwards of 40 feet away.

Look I'm not god; or anything; but if it was my choice, when someone does murders I would be like "well let's hear the context first, who can say" but if someone didn't put their cart back? oooh boy they are going straight to hell

Basically anything about carts at Costco makes me mad. I hate free samples because people will just leave their cart at an angle at the entrance to an aisle to run for samples and block it off completely.

Thanks. I was surprised as hell my Costco had that cut. I went to 3 butchers a few days before Christmas and struck out. Went to Costco to get either a pack of ribeyes or strips to make instead and there was a 3lb tomahawk there. Score.

24 hour dry brine with kosher salt. Worcestershire binder, salt, pepper, Kinders buttery steakhouse rub. 90 minutes or so at 225 on the smoker, pulled at 115. Seared at 500 on all sides until ~130. Rest for 30. Best I’ve ever made.

I also basted it with melted butter, rosemary and garlic.

My problem with the cart return at Costco is that there aren't enough of them. I take my kid with me to go shopping pretty often. There's no chance I'm taking my eyes off of him for a second in a parking lot so I make him get in the car and buckle in while I'm loading it up. But I also tend to park towards the back of the lot where there's no cart returns so now I'm stuck either leaving my son alone in my car unsupervised in a busy parking lot while I return it, or just leave the cart behind. I hate both options.

Seems like you could use some kind of quick release hitch , so you could just sort of tow the cart through the lot, and unhitch as you idle past the front door. Drop it off on the way by kind of thing.
