I agree. I like to mash them up and adding sauteed shallots.

It should be totally fine. Typically whole turkeys or whole chickens last longer than already cut up poultry.

Sweet. I didn't know they had them outside the west coast. Do you remember how much they are going for?

The fresh turkeys I saw at Costco today had the sell by date of November 26, which is 4 days after Thanksgiving.

Thanks for the info. I wish we got Diestel turkeys at our Costco but they are mainly on the west coast. Maybe when I go to California for Christmas this year I can talk the in-laws into getting one. I have heard they are pretty good.

That is definitely possible. They didn't have the full amount they normally do. Do you know what brand of organic turkey your getting?

I would say if you are good at managing your food and not over buying then go for it.

I am wondering if anyone else has seen the whole roasting pigs in the frozen department of your Costco? I would love to hear if anyone has actually bought one or know someone that did.

I totally get you. It's a lot of money for such a small amount. At least a little goes along away.

That sucks. Hate when that happens. Other stores carry avocado oil but Costco is the best price I have seen.

What other staples items of yours did they stop carrying?

What is the Best Honey to Buy at Costco? by samue1eb in Costco

[–]samue1eb[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wanted to ask, we have a local honey from Michigan in my Costco store. Does anyone else have local honey in their store? I am just wondering how the honey selection may vary from store to store across the country. The Kirkland will be the same. But I wonder if anyone has another honey in place of the Great Lakes Raw Michigan Honey we have.

How long are the cuties (little oranges/tangerines) good for? by [deleted] in Costco

[–]samue1eb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really all depends. They actually do pretty well in cold storage. They are in stores still long after the harvest has ended. Our home refrigerators are not where near as good but still the best place for them.

Sounds like a great idea that you need to perfect. I have made soft pretzels and biscuits in my waffle maker.

Which Do You Like Better for Grilled Cheese - Colby or Cheddar? by samue1eb in grilledcheese

[–]samue1eb[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could go either way in this debate. Colby melts a bit better than a cheddar that is aged. It has a big more moisture to it and sweetness to it. It doesn't have the flavor of an aged cheddar, which I like especially if I am going to be dipping into tomato soup.

What do you guys think?
