July 18, 20232 yr 3 minutes ago, Incredulity said: It's just a PSA for people who think that workaround is universal. For me and the South Austin Costco, the only way to avoid all the assholes is to arrive at 8:20 M-Th, get a dirty look from the greeter and be told the store is closing in 10 minutes. And then you still have to deal with all the Indian families who shop late, but that time is the best you're gonna get.

July 19, 20232 yr Kirkland sports drinks for the win. 24 bottles (20 oz) for $12. HEB's "Hill Country Fare" budget brand is $11 for a 24 pack, but those are 12 oz bottles. God Bless CostCo, and please ma'am, get out of the middle of the aisle.
July 20, 20232 yr None of you sedentary fuckers need sports drink equivalents Fuck you, Brawndo has what Brisketexans crave!

July 25, 20232 yr Depends on which Costco you go to. I've seen them at the one on Richmond in Houston. Haven't seen them at the one in Clear Lake.

Source - My wife who has been a meat and seafood buyer for 15 years at both HEB and Whole Foods. There may be a couple of never frozen items, but the vast majority (over 75%) of all the meat and seafood was frozen previously.

July 27, 20232 yr Yeah, Unless I'm watching a boat roll up to the pier with the fresh catch, I'm probably more skeptical of any food that has never been frozen. Sounds unsafe.

August 15, 20232 yr Those shishitos are possibly the most addictive snack I've had in years. Delete your post, sir, and never mention these delectably crunchy little fuckers to anyone else lest they become a scarcity of the grocery world.
August 16, 20232 yr The A5 is legit. Cooked it a few times. It is so rich, 1 steak will feed 2 couples with leftovers. Pro tip: Sear very quickly. Using typical cooking times for rare, medium rare, medium is too long for A5. On the Blackstone, I do 2 minutes each side and it has a nice crust and a perfect rare/medium rare.

That's the only downside. I couldn't figure it out either but I just googled maltodextrin and it's a straight carbohydrate powder used as a sweetener. 100g of maltodextrin contains 97g of carbs.

August 25, 20232 yr Lol. I bought two long sleeve shirts today. Also, there was a woman in a short pink mini skirt today. Literally could see the fold of her butt as she pushed the cart. If she bent to get anything on the lower half of a shelf, it would have bared the entire thing. Seems like there is always 1-2 people just dressed wild in Costco when I visit. 23 minutes ago, elfenix said: Already has Christmas shit out in the woodlands Mine too.
