Best things about Costco

That’s what I got instead.

Are these Kirkland brand bagels? I haven’t looked in a bit, my store used to carry some bagels and I don’t know what brand. They kept going bad in a week so I stopped buying them. Might give it another shot!

The ones in the bakery section and the price is for 2 sleeves. I like the French toast ones and strongly recommend the Parmesan one.

Parmesan for me, I’m all about a cheesy bagel with some garlic and chives cream cheese.

No cream cheese at home (bagels were an impulse purchase), but I had some garlic and herb butter spread that I put on the Parmesan one.

Yes the Kirkland brand. I always slice them all right away, then store them in the fridge. Usually get 1 sleeve of plain and 1 sleeve of the fancy ones.

Why slice them right away? I’d think that would dry them out faster.

Mainly so I don’t have to do it every morning. Plus they sometimes get put in the freezer instead. If they are pre-sliced I can just put one in the toaster oven without having to defrost it first.

How fast do they go bad if not in the fridge?

Depends on which ones. The plain ones are probably good for a week or 2, the blueberry ones more like 5 days - the berries tend to go moldy pretty quick. Depends on the weather too.

Blue Buffalo dog food: Costco stocking it overcame my resistance to following our vet’s advice.

Getting ready for tariffs to hit so I joined Costco today. Got out for $330.

sounds about right. it’s often several hundred $$$ even when you only go in for a couple of things.

Crosspost annoyed thoughts:
Ordered a fridge for my elderly mother. Delivery first thing this morning. They tried to tell her there wasn’t room on the truck for the haulaway, she’d have to call and reschedule some other time.
I said heck no. There’s an empty space where the new fridge was.
But we have to shuffle it in and out all day.
Not my problem your boss sent a full truck. I paid for haulaway amd don’t have space to store an extra.
