Re: Groceries

I agree, some things I can tell the difference, others it doesn't matter so much. Ketchup is one example that comes to mind. The own-brand I really don't like. I used to buy Heinz but have now...

Re: Groceries

A friend of mine drinks that and loves it.

Also try mixing whiskey/rye with ginger ale - that is basically candy in a glass.

Re: Groceries

When you get your smartphone, download the Flipp app. It's really good, I use it often. Scrapes all the various flyers from the various stores and then you can search by product. I use it when I am...

Re: Groceries

Awesome. I've been buying the 99c 1L bottles from Metro as it's the smallest diet tonic I can find. I only use it for G&T but don't drink enough G&T in one sitting before it goes flat. (I have not...

Re: Groceries

I don't mind the Baldersons 2 year cheddar at all - had it for breakfast this morning! It's pretty decent cheddar and a huge block for a great price.

Very, very occasionally the 5-year they carry...

Re: Groceries

LOL yeah I totally get it. The Costco cherries are quite good and often are about $5 for a huge container.

They're basically like small plums, though, lol. Takes a few bites to eat them all, so...

Re: Groceries

I've been eating cherries non stop this year. They are AWESOME this year, and 2.99/lb is an awesome price. I've lost track of how much I've bought. Loving it! I think most places have it at 2.99...

Re: Groceries

When living in London I used to do groceries every day ro every other day just because I had to haul it back myself. Every 2-3 weeks I'd splurge out and do a Sainsburys delivery, when I needed to...

yeah we do our own for special occasions but it's quite a lot of work and there are some boxed pastas that are very good. No doubt that your own is better, but it takes quite awhile and makes a bit...

Re: Groceries

Jsmth - is the veggie burger brand Veggie Patch? I've bought a few things from Costco from that brand - falafel, veg burger, etc - and it's all been excellent.

Re: Groceries

Siouxie - Costco also sells an excellent Cambozola! One of Mr Schnooks' favourites. (And mine now that I can eat soft cheese again! YAY!)

Chicken is the only thing I'm not nuts about Montreal steak spice on, but it's great on everything else including vegetables!

Re: Groceries

They can go dry on the BBQ if they are cut too thin, I've never had the issue though. But I do like the idea of resting them on chopsticks, I will try that next time! Thanks for the tip! :D

Re: Groceries

I highly recommend the Montreal Steak Spice, any grocery store has it. Sprinkle it over all sides of the steak. Mmmmm delicious.

How were you planning on cooking the steak if not on the barbecue?...

Re: Groceries

Slightly! Tenderloin is certainly my favourite cut because it has a bit of fat through it but the meat is the most tender and tastiest. As long as you barbecue it to a perfect medium rare and...

As I said, though, to each their own. I work 5 minutes from Costco and it's on my way home, and their regular prices are either cheap or pretty close to it (as...
