Shopping At Costco For Meat & Seafood - What To Buy & Avoid
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 май 2024
- I went back to my happy place, Costco, to show you how to shop for beef, chicken, seafood, lamb, pork, and more at the warehouse club. There are some great deals on meat, but you have to know what to buy and avoid. For example, organic chicken is the way to go, but I could not find a certified humane stamp, which was a bummer. Also, beware of that rotisserie chicken at Costco. The beef is an amazing deal at Costco, especially if you can find grass-fed beef, but what's the deal with blade tenderized prime steaks!? I am still blown away by the price of wild salmon, but if you can find the Norwegian farmed salmon, that is good stuff too. I hope you enjoyed this Costco review, I have another one coming tomorrow! Mad love..Bobby, Dessi, Rose, and Art! XOXO

Crazy seeing the price changes from 2 years ago to now.
And I live in Canada. Add 10 to 15 dollars per item no joke
Thats exactly what I did
FJB
Just wait in 3 months you won't believe what we will be paying for food! Clown-in-Chief says it's Putins fault 🤡🤦♂️💩
Yep, LETS GO BRANDON! It's what happens when you print $6 Trillion more.
I love your videos! I'm retired from Costco working there for over 26 years. It's good that you put comments in the comment box (usually found at the front of the store as you are leaving). They love to hear from their members and you help to educate them on what people want. Have your friends fill them out too, the more the better. Just remember that they have to find a good supplier and there has to be a good demand. Also you can ask at the Membership desk if they are just out of something and waiting for the shipment or if it is seasonal. The grass fed burgers have been a regular item at our store.
It's so depressing to see what the prices of food were not long ago in this video compared to walking into Costco today. The good old days!
So true
When Trump was president
@@thiskneegrow when the pandemic didnt happen.
And here we are today
@@kingjamir2135 imagine if we ignored the "pandemic" and didnt waste trillions?
Thank u for educating us! I am a chef and grocery prices are ridiculous! It's hard not to gravitate toward more affordable meats and seafood. In culinary school I learned that it is important to know where your meats come from. How animals/seafood are handled or raised and etc. This video was awesome because I am about to make a Costco run for meats and seafood this weekend! You are the best! Thanks FlavCity! Been following u since the beginning 👩🏾🍳💯❤️
I think it's all lies to get us to pay more,sad
ruclips.net/video/fxreqaIMtfw/видео.html
@@feistygrandma2636or a lot of things yeah. But meat is one of those things that you can actually taste the difference in quality of how they were handled/raised.
@@Giraffe27 yes I agree Elizabeth, and I still say pork is Good eats it tastes way better than beef it used to be less expensive than beef but now it's more expensive, well everything is expensive nowadays they just got greedier and greedier and greedier period.
Morgan Spurlock did a great video documentary on chicken farmers, he created his own chicken farm and contacted the USDA to get approved to sell. He was able to add things such as "free range chickens"...which is just opening a door with a fence to allow them "access" to outside, though none went out. "No antibiotics"...well that's already illegal. In total he added about 6 or 7 "feel good" labels but in actually they really meant nothing or had no effect as all chickens are raised the same.
ruclips.net/video/fxreqaIMtfw/видео.html
Pasture raised is best. Although 10 bucks a dozen is crazy
Yes, that’s why he says Free Range means nothing
Love the knowledge you choose to share with us! Super appreciate you!! ❤
Recently came across your channel. Learned a great deal and have made changes on what I buy for the family. Just wanted to say Thank you .
Love this video. Very informative. I'm a frequent Costco shopper - there are two in my SoCal town - so keep em rolling
Thank you Bobby for all the info on products! I love that you take all the guessing out for us. I bought your book and love that you have Paleo recipes because I try and follow a Paleo lifestyle. Thanks again and keep up the great work!
thanks for the book support!!!!
Great point about blade tenderized, thanks! This is also why burgers sketch me out when they're not cooked through since ground beef is a mixture of exposed meat, and not a solid unpierced hunk of meat.
Sous vide to the rescue for that!
Jay yea same. I promise you people you can get a extremely juicy burger even if it is cooked to well done.
@@lovesandwich8783 Yeah, whenever I cook burgers at home to well done they're always absurdly juicy (maybe because I eat them quickly?). But if I order well done from a restaurant they're always the dry hockey pucks everyone talks about. I've never understood why there's such a stark difference.
@@nerdcave0 because restaurants with inexperienced cooks squish patties onto the grill, pushing the juice out of the burger.
This guy must be on the Costco payroll his advice sucks
Thanks, I definitely would like more valuable info like this about Costco... great research!
This was SO helpful. Thank you so much for posting. I've noticed that my family and I are already making good choices. Honestly, I thought I ate pretty healthy until I got my cancer diagnosis last spring. After treatment, My doctor said that the major thing I could do is Change things in my diet. I wasn't eating organic because it is more expensive. But ever since we got our Costco membership, we've been in food heaven. The savings has been great. But the most important thing is that it's made it SO much easier for us to buy Organic and actually stick to it. I love these videos and am about to search for more.
Thank you for making us think about what we are putting down our throats!!!! Keep up the good work!!
Great info....subbed especially after seeing the warmth and time you gave to the driver.😊
This may be a little late and I didn't read through all of the comments so it might have been said but, I believe that the "Salmon" from Chile that you showed in this video in costco, it's actually a variety of Trout. "Steelhead Trout" looks very similar to Salmon and has a close-ish flavor profile (if you're pretty forgiving like most). I have seen and heard of it being used as a cheaper substitute for real Salmon and many stores don't try to educate people otherwise. Please feel free to verify as I am going on a memory from a long time ago.
Thank you for this informative video by the way, I do appreciate the information and the help to shop smarter.
Thank you for all your hard work, information and sharing. God bless!
More Costco videos please! Very informative- it makes our shopping a bit easier . Thanks a lot!
another one tomorrow morning ;)
Thank you for your time and trouble. Here's to the coming year. May it be the best you've ever known ! Collective success and well-being, Bonnie
Norval seems like good person! Super cool to see genuine people you guys!
Very informative! Thanks so much! This carnivore loves Costco and you for educating!
I’m trying to eat healthier and just found your channel. You provide a lot of detailed information that is really useful. Learned a lot about reading the labels carefully and what to avoid. I do a lot of my shopping at Costco so I will be looking for your other Costco videos. You have a new subscriber!

I didn’t know any of this, thanks for the important info !
Whoa! In Europe, Norway has a very bad reputation for farm raised fish. If health is your #1 priority, nothing beats wild-caught.
Wonderful show
That is the same perspective from France.
I live in Seattle in Washington State. 90% of the Alaskan fishing fleet harbors here in the off season. Never, ever consume farm raised fish. The practice is very harmful to the environment. The fish get lice from each other. The meat is mushy because the fish are stuck in small pens. And the food pellets they feed them have dye in them to give the salmon meat a red color because the food they are eating is not natural. The red color in salmon comes from the food they consume in the ocean.
This dude is also way over indexing on non-GMO feed, and foods labeled organic. Not sure who this guy is but he doesn't sound very credible from this video.
OK but overfishing???
As always a ton of great info , always review video at least twice to check what I missed , Thanks Again Bobby.
Very good info!! I just recently started using the organic ground beef. Looks like I have to find the 100% grass fed one. Thanks!
Hi! Thanks for your videos! I buy the farm to family organic ground turkey at Costco too and if you look at the ingredients it also has Rosemary extract in it.
In British Columbia , Canada, we have two residential pods of Orcas. They live and travel up and down the coast. After some Norwegian fishfarm companies got permission to set up open net salmon farms scientists who track these pods started to notice that when a pod went to travel past these areas, they would veer off to get as far away from them as possible to get past them. So if the water around these nets is so toxic , I'm going to take the advise of the orcas and stay away. These fish farms pollute the water the same as a factory farmer pollutes the land. The Canadian government has withdrawn the licenses and they have to be completely gone by 2022. We are ecstatic.

Happy digestive system, mate ! Keep chewing well.😁
Thank you for your videos every time I shop on line I ask myself what is best for me I chose your video to tell me before any other
Norwegian farm raised Salmon has had really bad press about toxic chemical, antibiotics used etc. I do not know if they have cleaned their act up but I would be wary. I’m living in Uk and Costco stopped buying Scottish salmon and went for Norwegian, presumably because of cost. I only buy Scottish (from researched farms) or wild caught.
Wow! I hope Bobby reads your comment so he can give INFORMED content! Sheesh!
Laith A You’re absolutely right. Norwegian salmon farmers have been caught-out with highly toxic water conditions. The government is actively trying to cover it up. Stick to your Scottish salmon and I’ll stick to my NZ salmon here down under.
@@Puckerization I totally agree. Yes there has been really agressive tactics taken by the Norwegian Government with investiagative journalists.
@@shellylarue9661 yes hope so. I think Bobby is thinking this is the better option regarding imported salmon to the US but Norway has some shocking practice. A quick Google will show...
Laith A .-
Once again, another home run for Art and Bobby! Thanks for the info! 👏🏼👏🏼
1:50 if you like your salmon criminally over cooked like I do (practically white throughout), then it’s perfectly fine to freeze previously frozen stuff. Defrost it for 6-8hrs at least, in the fridge, just straight up in the packet you froze it in (whole package or if you individually sealed it). Tastes just fine and the texture is fine
I've been checking out your wonderful informative videos. Learning ao much! TY so much! 😊
Hey we still grass fed patties at our local Costco in North Fresno CA location! I just scooped 2 bags yesterday!! Thanks for your super awesome and informational videos! New subscriber here 🥰🤗🔥🔥
This was fabulous. I have been reluctant to buy meat from Costco, but this was so helpful and will end up saving me money. Thank you!
Real talk
So grateful for this information. Thank you guys so much!
Thanks for all your videos,a lot of really good information
Loving this one thanks for sharing very important information giving thanks blessed love to all knowledge is power hopefully everyone pays attention keep up the good work 🙏🙏🙏🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲💪💪💪
I was just at Cosco this past weekend. Just checking it out to see if I wanted to get a membership. I determined that yes I will soon.
I'm glad I came across this video. I'll be buying smarter and more informed. Thanks for sharing the knowledge.
*Costco (not the shipping company)
12:37. I went to my local Costco after watching this video, and the had the 100% Grass Fed Burgers. Package of 15 for $19.99. Normally I wouldn't buy frozen pre formed burgers, but! I was pleasantly surprised. They are delicious = Thanks.
Whooo I must look for this next time
He talked about wagu burger patties. Never saw that in the three Costcos near me. Anyone else?
Thank you for this video, very informative.
Bobby, Costco just opened a Business Costco in my neighborhood and they have the prime meats in the whole packaging. This allows me to cut my Prime New York strip at the thickness that I like best and No tenderizing issues :)
I love going to the Business Costco and they are not as crowded. At least not yet 😄👍🏼
I bet this guy Bobby isgaay! He takescoccs in all his hols a lot!
I’m a long time Costco fan, just found this channel about a week ago. Bobby and Art, you guys have shown me different, healthier choices at Costco that didn’t catch my eye before (and I’ve now purchased). I’m also learning a great deal about the ingredients that go into these products and to make better choices. Thanks for providing great content, interested in more Costco, Whole Foods and a little Trader Joe’s as well!
so glad to hear that!!!
oman9999 I totally agree I have learned so much! Thank u Bobby and art lots of hard work and dedication really appreciate it!
Bobby you need to get back to Costco and give us updated videos just about all your videos are 1 year old. Can you please find out about STPP in the frozen wild caught Fish like Halibut and Cod? And what else has STPP?
Whoa!! $6.99/lb for wild caught salmon? biden’s salmon is a lot more expensive than Trump’s salmon.
very interesting video, really enjoyed all these cuts and products you showed us
Some of this was very interesting! But bruh... Put the stuff back the way you found it instead of just throwing it back all wonky. So annoying, staff has to follow up behind you and straighten it up.
Omg this was driving me crazy urgh.
Lol 😂😭😂 i year ya bro lol 🤘🏻🍻/ 🇨🇦Ontario Kingston
Yep, lazy and you see it all the time. The same folks who just shove their cart anywhere in the parking lot when they are done. Is it really that hard to put stuff back?!
Dickhead move, lol
I noticed that about him he does that in just about all his videos... not to professional
Regarding the roast chicken, what really impressed me is that your previous video showed that they put a lot of hormones and antibiotics to lower the cost. Since then, I never buy that chicken again. And since then, they start to put "No added hormones" signal there, lol. That video was also the first video taught me to read the ingredients. Thank you Bobby.
that was the first one ;)
Don't care I shop for my money worth
Every time I read an article from those health food fruitcakes, I laugh. At 73, I've eaten many a cows, pigs, chickens(not my fav), seafood throughout the world and am still as healthy as can be. I remember a health food nut Euell Gibbons in the early 60's appearing in ads eating healthy food like grape nuts and pine nuts. He died at 64 and looked more like 90. I have no problem with corn fed or grain fed beef, so long as not animal by-products. This Non-GMO bull shit is for the birds-literally. Many plant cross pollinate naturally by wind or other means. It's been going on through millennial. Now all of a sudden it's bad for you. Rice was engineered to harvest quicker to feed the hunger. I guest it's better to let people be safe but starved to death. People sits in ivory tower have the luxury to pick and choose. People in Africa starving don't give a shit about a cow is grass fed, corn fed, or grain fed. They are just happy to have meat or engineered corn. I would you rather die at 80 with some kind of disease then starved to death at 15.
@@JDere I'm 100% agreed !
Hey as a meatcutter put your packages back the way they were in the case it’s annoying when we have to go behind a customer and straighten the case because they just threw it back in however. I like your videos though.
LOL! it's more than just meats that folk do that - I'm OCD and forever straightening products on the shelves so much they asked if I wanted to work at my store - no thank you, retired! :)
Dang. Lol. You've been verbally spanked Bobby.
He always tossing things back unlike the way he finds them, lol 😁
😂I used to be a merchandise and it bothered me too but I like Bobby. I make a list of what he recommends.😀🤙🏽
@@arosete3512 I'm.sure he didn't even realize what he is doing. If he reads the comments he'll be more conscious.
Wow, this is helpful info! I've just subscribed. Thank you.
I like your info thx you so much , people need to learn more about this good to know
I buy the wild Costco salmon A LOT and almost always re-freeze after trimming, portioning and vacuum sealing. I have not noticed any texture difference vs eating immediately.
Good to know.
Me too.
Try the wild-caught sockeye from the frozen foods section. Only frozen once and they are all individually cryo-vac packed.
@@leeratliff7588 I religiously only got to Costco sometimes for that pre packed sockeye salmon in the frozen section. The bag is now $39.99 but health is wealth
I recently saw your book at my local Costco in Hazlet NJ. I haven't bought it yet because i'm not very familiar with Keto but I've recently started looking into it.
I love this channel. Glad I found it. I'm thinking about switching over from Sam's Club to Costco membership.
Excellent explanation 👍👏👏Thank you…learnt a lot
Thanks for explaining blade tenderizing! I almost bought New York strip steak and I read about blade tenderizing at Costco but had no clue what they meant. Now I know for sure why not to buy it. I lime my steak rare so that is a no go.
Buy the whole subprimal and cut your own. None of the large cuts still in the cryovac packaging are blade tenderized.
I cook my steaks rare from costco all the time and had no problems whatsoever. I wouldnt worry about it. I also work in costcos meat dept
Regarding scallops and shrimp. Most often they are full of sodium tripolyphosphate (STP or STPP), which is a salt that adheres itself to the cells causing them to retain water. It's used by the food industry to add weight to the food for more profit. It cannot be washed out, and can only be removed by heating, hence the white glue-like ooze that comes out of seafood when cooked. It's hard to find seafood without STP. I've checked Costo's shrimp and it's on the label. Check the unpeeled, as they sometimes don't have it but the peeled will most often. Also, scallops are known as "wet" (with STPP) or "Dry" (without STPP)...so obviously dry is best and will sear in a pan instead of steam.
What an expert! I learned so much from you!
Yes love your Costco suggestions more please! Would love the same on Sams warehouse buys
WELL DONE!! I love your clear, fair recommendations! 👍❤️
Boy am I glad I went to the Tumwater WA Costco last week and picked up some of those grass fed beef patties. I love them. They still had a bunch of them. Also, I knew that the rotisserie chicken has stuff I don't need, however.....I am on a limited budget and I got about 10 meals of meat and 9 cups of bone broth from it for $5. I balance it out with mostly organic meats etc. I also got the organic eggs for instance. Most of my veggies come from local farmers who farm organically. and I get my fish from a local seafood place that carries a lot of wild fish from local waters. Not cheap though so that is where my money goes. I love Costco and am glad my son has a membership.
Are you a teacher
Great video dude. Gonna check out my local in Houston
Learn something new everyday
Thank u well appreciate you and camera man art❤❤❤❤
Hey Bobby. First of all thanks for the video. It was very informative and I feel more confident with shopping at Costco. I have a question: which red meat do you recommend to keep frozen? I'm trying to keep meats and seafood frozen since we're on a lockdown and it's hard for us to make these big grocery trips (we live in nyc and our cousin was nice enough to drive us to Costco.)
If I can jump on your question to Bobby... It is not crucial as to the variety of meat you want to freeze. How you freeze is the critical element in preserving quality and freshness. Best case is using a vacuum sealer, which can extend the life of your foods, (the manufacturers maintain a 5X longer. I have cooked steak 2 yrs. old and it was just as awesome as the ones I didn't forget about. Now there is an additional benefit to vacuuming. If you season it before you freeze, you can then sous vide the product. If you can't buy a vacuum sealer, take a freezer bag with the meat in it and submerge to almost the top so the water 'squeezes' the air out and away from the surface of the meat. If you can't do that wrap first in plastic wrap squeezing as much air out as you can, then wrap that in freezer paper. Remember "air is you enemy".
Yes, please Bobby and Art, more Costco!!!!!!!!!!
Few ago weeks I was skeptical about the lamb because I didn't see grass feed however I really like the quality now I'm comfortable to buy it 😊
I haven’t went to Costco in years there is one somewhat close to me and I’m very picky with meat I usually buy at BJS but I want to see what meat Costco has in my area this is a great video to follow and informative I love organic
Just found you. Very helpful! We travel full time and if there’s a Costco near by, we’re there! Always looking for wild/grass fed and finished/organic. Found those patties by accident a couple months ago. So good!!
Of note about "organic" chicken. The term "organic" being owned by the US government is subject to changes and revisions. Organic chicken feed is allowed to have non-organic/synthetic protein in it. Specifically methionine, which is a major factor in poultry feed. The word "organic" is a political term with it's definition being a constant moving target. There is little integrity in it.
The W.H.O. must have invented it!
So sad
its why i dont even buy organic at regular stores anymore ..... you have to catch a farmer's markt or an amish market for the good stuff .....
You are absolutely correct most of this idiots videos are full of inaccurate misleading information. Only uneducated internet users would believe his garbage without verifying it.
That's so cool of you offering picture with that guy with your book😍
Would love to see and updated video like this ❤ with prices getting worse i wonder if is worth it to get a membership or not
Sam’s Club has the fresh Grass Fed ground beef, so I typically get theirs.
Great video and I agree with everything you said. I already knew all this information about meat/seafood but I’m so glad your getting the information out there for people who have no idea about meat practices, feed, and what’s added. I hope Costco will continue to provider it’s savvy shoppers higher quality meat options and more organic. Paying a premium for a membership should come with better options. As a Physician Assistant who’s done a lot of research on nutrition and holistic health, I just want to say spot on and good job explaining all of this. And one more thing, most people buy the rotisserie chicken because they leave exhausted and hungry and it’s a quick fast option for many. I don’t like the idea of getting non-organic poultry. Suggestion for Costco: prepare some organic rotisserie chicken for higher $$ and let people chose. I would pay more for an organic rotisserie chicken already cooked. Great content! Keep informing people and hopefully one day we can ban Glyphosate/Monsanto/Roundup/GMO and all practices creating TOXIC FOOD.

Hi Bobby just got your book from Amazon thx so excited hello from Canada Ewa
Hi there I just wanted to let you know. I was diagnosed with cholesterol issues a few months ago. Not wanting to go on medication. I began to RUclips dive. And came across your video about oil vegetable oil. Took your recommendation into practice. No more cholesterol issues! Thanks
100% frozen grass fed beef available here in Connecticut. So glad to see your reviews of Costco. Hoping some day they get organic, humanely raised pork… and organic rotisserie chickens.. getting my organic rotisserie chickens at Whole Foods about $10 each
Sockeye salmon now costs between $20 to $30 a pound when it's out of season. $6.99 a pound would make me very suspicious.
Never knew that about the rotisserie chicken- thank you!!!!!
Wonderful!!! Thank you for helping us buy.
You are amazing keep doing this please. You are unfolding all the dirty secrets and man so much its like dodging bullets just to eat safe!
I loved this video! thank you for all the great info! Very clear explaining the differences in all the meats, poultry and fish. I learned so much!
It's all BS most are inaccurate and half truths. Check for yourself instead of believing internet lies
Thanks so much…. This was extremely helpful!!!
I wish you guys would do a video on the SEASON sardines and mackerel canned from COSTCO. Does the canning process destroy the Omega 3 etc?
I gotta say these are some phenomenal deals however I also work as butcher with Albertsons I got my self a Rib-eye Roast for 4.77 per pound plus my employees discount/deals and rewards and managed to grave myself 20$! 13 pound RIB Eye Roast for this thanksgiving!
Thanks for the tips, def going to avoid the bladed meat!
this is amazing info, that i never knew. thank you.
It's really bad info
I'm glad RUclips recommended you today! You can be my new keto man, lol.
Lamb is an amazing deal at costco. And I love the 4.99 chickens. Otherwise I think the meats are pretty overpriced and not particularly tender, even with the blade tenderization. And I agree, blade tenderizing steaks is a terrible idea. Fred Meyer is usually a very good price for their meat
The interesting thing about costco ground beef is that it expires the next day. It's all the beef that will expire tomorrow tossed in the grinder with some extra fat. That means your burger could be prime rib or tenderloin. It's also incredibly lean. You do have to be able to use it very quickly or freeze it that day though.
Good to know, we really like it for cheeseburgers.
Hi Bobby, just found your site and have subscribed. Are you sure about the Australian lamb at Costco being 100% grass fed? My understanding is that New Zealand's laws on lamb are very strict where Australia is not as strict at all. Keep it up, great content.
Very educational and useful video. Kudos!
I haven't been to Costco for a few years. My sons has a Costco card. Costco has changed a lot and I am hoping to join Costco. Keep up the good work.
I was raised in Mississippi. And I’ve eaten a ton of catfish. And caught a lot in my younger days. I don’t intend to stop eating catfish.
People are just turned off because it's a bottom feeder. My family is Hungarian and we used to go carp fishing. The fish tasted fantastic, if you know how to make it. I've even had bullhead and the flesh is beautiful and tasty.
People think that bottom feeders are eating poop when in fact they are eating insects, small crustaceans, etc. Same type of food as other fish.
My pap makes us catfish he catches all the time. My favorite is beer battered and deep fried in peanut oil😍super yummy
Who cares?
@@ps429 Oyster, lobster and crab are "bottom feeders" also.
Good for ya. I'm from Michigan and I'll never give up my battered deep fried perch with lots of tartar sauce.Trans fat or not.
I just discovered your channel and learned a great deal in this video. Thank you for the free education.
Great video, thank you! Your Costco has more fish selection than mine.
thanks! great job ! I am buying meat, chicken, egg directly from farm since they have online shop in BC, Canada.
I buy my groceries from Food N Stuff. It’s equal distance from my work and my home. -Ron Swanson
I went to costco today and spent a good penny on things that we were out of. i purchased the big bag of Tri Tip. my employment is a truck driver, but i haul livestock. So i kinda know little bit more that the normal consumers. lie what feedlot it was pulled out of the plant numbers how they treat the animals during and after we drop off. however the price of the tri tip at the store in the bag untrimmed is $8.99lb, and usually has 3 in a bag. the trimmed tri tip is $9.99 lbs. this is the sale price at the stores. costco bag from IBP was only $6.49lbs. but costco bag had 7 tri tips inside. the total cost was $157.49, if you can swing that. plus it was all trimmed up so ur not buying that huge pad of fat like in the bagged bought store untrimmed. plus if u like organic this was not organic. at 11:40 the organic hamburger in the 3 prepackage is the most gross hamburger i have ever ate. when you open the package it looks like they mixed water with the blood left over during the package. i have never seen blood in hamburger. then when u cook it there is no fat in it so if u not cook it on med. low it will burn. then the taste is so awful, it is a taste i cannot describe. Just my option.
Omg I never ever went to Costco but now I'm going thank you
Another great video. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Know that there is a HUGE difference between frozen thawed seafood! The major difference is time from processing to freezing, which presumes sub-0 degree freezing, then it's THAWED and repackaged!
Unless you can buy fresh, buy the farm raised steelhead from Norway (only!)!
Wow never been so early! I hope for the new year we get some supermarket videos in regular supermarkets, I only cook for myself and don’t even have a car-I won’t be shopping in Costco until 2030 lol
we gotcha ;)
That was a great video!! I love Costco, we shop there a lot. Thanks for reviewing the meats. It's nice to know that I'm making Bobby approved decisions:) You also inspired me to try the rack of lamb. Those crab legs said WILD COOKED though. How do they do that?! Hopefully that was just a typo...lol

Good catch !! No pun

Carrageenan is from seaweed. Used it to clarify beer. It's all natural maybe even organic.
