... On a pro-tip, I went to CostCo 😎 in search of "Keto Crackers". Here's my cash-register ticket. Use it to compare prices on stuff in your area. Yeah, I got 10 bags of that pre-cooked bacon ... it's siege proof. And I weighed the cart down with some impulse items, such as an all- the-rage air fryer. I notice they quit giving steaks away 😳 A taste-station lady nailed me on those "Broccoli Bites", glad she did too 😎 That's it for now us ML

dickys_daily_dickery Bro, an air frier is probably the best investment I made in the kitchen in the last 8 years. Want crispy corn dogs for the kids? Bam done in 8 minutes. Crunchy frozen chicken pattys? Done in 10. Hotwings? Like 8-10 minutes and done. They're amazing. 5 likes

  -  foundersphotography_idaho @laruetactical melt butter in pot, add flour to thicken, add milk and whisk to create a a base, then Add sharp cheddar constantly stirring (add slowly so it doesn't get to stringy and stays liquid), season with chili powder cumin and pepper. Add pickled jalapenos if you like spice. Takes about 7 mins and is 100000000000Xs better than velveeta. 4 likes

  -  bost0215 @laruetactical yep. Costco's doesnt advertise, everything is word of mouth. Its also very hard to get something on the floor to sell, were kinda a-holes about it lol.

  -  bost0215 @laruetactical and you can get it in 5 gallon buckets lol😂
  -  laruetactical @bost0215 ... I got the small jar stacked behind her. It's actually pretty good.

bradtully7 You got to Better Marky!! Meat and a few green beans my friend. Maybe a sweet potato with some yummy butter!!

cletus.james.walker Please explain the "SNWFLAKE POT" , is there something you're not telling us ? 😂
  -  laruetactical @cletus.james.walker ... mashed taters
  -  laruetactical @cletus.james.walker ... They were actually pretty good. I scooped out about 1 cup full and poured the still-warm Rotisserie chicken drippings on the potatoes and microwaved them - yum. Years ago a friend told me how he barbequed chicken. First he boiled the chicken to cook it, then boiled his potatoes in the chicken water. Then threw the boiled chicken on the hot propane grill outside to brown it and the barbeque sauce while whipping the boiled-in-chicken-water potatoes. Yeah, I was listening 😎 1 like
