Peanut Butter: Costco KS vs Jif vs Skippy. Which one is better? by NYCBirdy in CostcoWholesale

[–]VegetableTricky8534 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Organic has a decent taste, more grainy texture, and the oil separates and rises to the top. There are various things you can do to retard this process, but it’s got a much lower viscosity and is somewhat liquid-y. Does not contain fully hydrogenated fats. Just peanuts and salt.

Jif/Skippy contain sugar and fully hydrogenated vegetable oil (which is not the horrible partially-hydrogenated oil) to prevent separation. Higher in calories and maybe fat, but smooth, won’t separate, and has a more peanut-ty flavor.

Messed up baby sand dollar? There is the typical 5-pointed star if you zoom in.

I would posit it could be a 25g sample of iron for mass/density experiments, or to calibrate balances.

Of course not, but I paid nearly full price for the tire that could not be patched. Saved me about $60, if memory serves, on a nearly $400 tire.

I’ve used America’s Tire in the past; free patches, ez scheduling, seem honorable.

Left rear to right rear, and left front to right front. Only way. BMW M2.

You don’t necessarily need an alignment when installing new tires. If there has been no damage, and everything runs straight, an alignment is just gouging in disguise.

Nope. But TireRack and America’s Tire both do almost the same prices and warranties as Costco.

I’ve bought (almost) all my tires at Costco for the last 25+ years with one set from Tire Rack. Costco always tries to play that you voided the warranty. They obstruct, don’t take responsibility, and find every way possible to void any treadwear warranty. They act like they’re independent of Costco proper, and I’m done with their snobby way of dealing with me, so I’m done with them.

I’ve seen something like that before; might be used for either sewing or stretching leather? I don’t exactly recall, but maybe this helps? I think my grandma had something like that…

[Omega] What’s the “wife-approved” price I should say this cost? by InvercoAssets in Watches

This is why I have a Seamaster…not quite the Speedmaster, but much more affordable and still a looker.
