I want to believe. I'm sure it's good enough for this thread. But is it good enough for that other thread?

But a food snob is still going to turn up their nose at it.

We've got a few Portuguese chicken places around that quality and flavour wise just destroy grocery store chickens, for the same price.

I've sampled some of tgapp's stuff. While not on that level, it's waaay better than any other coffee I've tried at this pricepoint. You can pay a lot more for non-specialty grade coffee that tastes like an ashtray.

Man, that bar is so low, though. Just to be clear, this is coffee that doesn't taste like an ashtray?

The 1-star reviewers do sound like smokers. Adding it to the list. Thanks!

Why would you buy a Costco chicken when you can just grow your own? So much better, and better for you.

Just the smell of those things when I'm in the store almost makes me sick.

The pickles rule but those buckets leak, sometimes all over the fucking car. Now I make them give me a plastic bag (which at Costco requires they make a trip to a special room) and I transfer all the pickles to a good jar as soon as I get home. But damn they are tasty!

If you can find these (not at Costco, AFAIK), they are awesome.

Yeah, grillos taste great but some basic blocking and tackling issues
-the buckets are a disaster, usually overfilled with an aggressive snap on lid.
-some end up looking like swamp thing with all the branches of dill covering them
-Maybe 20% of them are either really limp or tough.

That said, I still have two buckets in the fridge. They also have a “hot” version that adds a nice bit of heat to it

If you’re looking for an inexpensive outdoor space solar lighting solution you might look at these. We’ve had them since June around our new patio and they’ve been great. Just enough light so you don’t stumble yet can still see the stars above.

Grillos are really good…but…once you open them, eat fast. They get limp, quick.

Hook or Crook Lodi Red Field Blend. 5.99. Really good

A bucket fell out of the fridge this morning. While it was on the way to the floor the thought of pickle juice and pickles and cleaning up a gigantic mess flashed before me. And then the bucket landed. With the lid still on. Now I'm mixed on the aggressive snap.

A neighbor has these, they look pretty sharp.

Trident beer battered cod. Air fry them suckers. Make your own tartar sauce or roumelade.

I guarantee a few restaurants are getting away with the same brand.

I like those solar lights gf needs those.

Blue Diamond Chile Lime almonds.

Just picked up a portable charger for my upcoming trip and it was $10 off.

An OLED tv

Pomegranates

Don't know if it's been mentioned here, but the pork rinds with tajin are killer if you are a pork rinds fan.

Went to Costco today and couldn't find them. :(

But do you wake up at 2am with a head ache? Asking for a friend...
