Yes, they are far and away the least gristle-y frozen chicken bits I’ve ever had. They cook up really well in an air fryer and are in fact lightly breaded instead of 80% breading/20% chicken like most popcorn chicken. I only eat 3-4 of the bits at a time in a meal, so the high cost doesn’t bother me.

We refer to those as Desperation Pizzas in our house. They're fine for a $3.50 meal for 2 when we're both exhausted and don't want to think about dinner or expend literally any effort on it.

I don't know what kind of dry rear end pizza dough y'all are making, but my kitchen aid does just fine with the mixing and kneading on the correct setting. I always do the very end of kneading by hand because you can feel it when it moves from tiny lumps to smooth and elastic.

I went today and saw but did not purchase the trident fish sticks. Maybe your regional center is just backordered right now.

Well yes, but that’s the reason egg prices are so high and places are running out of stock while the $5 rotisserie endures.

They’re having to accept lower quality standards because the Californian broccoli pull for December was hit hard by pesticide resistant worms. Those mixes get lower quality than just florets. It effected everyone, but Taylor Farms has such a big share of the bagged market that they don’t have to worry much about a hit to their reputation.

It’s called pin rot, it looks gross and is an inspection fault but just scrape it a little with your fingernail and it’ll come off. Cauliflower is made up of bunches of tiny flower buds and those are just the oldest ones buds shriveling up like any cut flower.

Death cob, I also live in Chicago and definitely get $60 of utility per year out of my membership. If you use allergy meds at all, Costco is hands down the cheapest option. Eggs, whole bean coffee, flour, sugar, vanilla and cocoa powder if you bake at all, the chicken, meat (vacuum seal into single meal portions and freeze), shrimp, fish, liquor, wine. The key is resisting buying anything in huge packages that can’t be easily processed into single meal amounts. I buy steak once a year now, same with ground beef. Things that I’ve noticed aren’t worth getting in large quantities are things that will either stale fast or frozen vegetable mixes- they tend to freezer burn relatively fast in my garbage apartment freezer. The nice thing about living so close is that you don’t need to buy everything at once. I live on the north side and both the Clybourne and Niles stores are about 40 minutes of driving so I always go out to Niles and do any suburban errands I’ve built up.

They have them at Niles, or if you’re feeling spicy take a ride down to the business center in La Grange and get the 6lb cans for $5 each.

Josh Lyman posted:How are robovacs with rugs? My bedroom is carpeted so I expect it wouldn't work there, but the rest of my living space is hardwood with low pile rugs. Good for maintainance if you run a few times/week but you'll still need to vacuum it with a real vacuum every now and then, especially if you have a hair generating resident like a cat or a long haired person. If there are tassels on the rugs they can get caught up but not as much as the first generation robovacs.

It depends on how dedicated you are to running it and emptying. My brother has 4 people and 2 shedd-y dogs in his house and almost never really vacuums. He has a whole map program setup where it does the common rooms, recharges and empties, then does one bedroom every day. Mine is hope my partner runs it at least once a week and do the entire apartment manually every other week.

Freeze the bagels, pull them out overnight to thaw, then toast as normal. This goes for most baked goods-they freeze well but get immediately stale in the fridge.

My partner also has sleepy noise needs and he loves these Bluetooth headbands like this. He says they're super comfy and I can't hear them, which is great because his old solution was playing ebooks read out loud on an iPad that drove me crazy.

iroc.dis posted:Specifically, King Arthur brand flour. Last year my home-baker spouse was ecstatic when she found Costco carried that brand, as it's one of the best for baked goods. When it ran out recently, we went back to get more and found its been replaced by some garbage brand of flour It must just be your locations, because I recently bought a giant KA bag of AP flour at mine in Chicago.

I have a Shark Navigator from Costco and I love it. It advertised no hair wrapping around its main beater brush and it is really true. I have a shorthair cat who seemingly buds off an entire new cat in fur each week and it doesn’t get clogged by her, either. It has a bunch of configurations and all of them have worked well for me. It’s a bagless with washable foam filter, though, so if you have crazy allergies and need a HEPA ymmv.
