The beef tastes fine here in Illinois. You are being picky and folks do
not need to take that into account. The pickier you are about food the
more you need to do special order products. CostCo does not do special
order products.

We now use a fair amount of non-food items from CostCo. Check the
prices.

We buy most of our meat from CostCo these days. It's more consistant
than the local groceries. But when we want the special good stuff we go
to a local butcher.

They are good but too big for us. We ended up switching to ones from
the grocery store because of size. The best salads are from whole
lettuce and veggies from the grocery store, so premixed salads are a
compromise. They cost quality; they pay convenience.

The depends on the individual type. They have a lot of good fresh
veggies.

That did not make sense to me. Sounds like a language barrier issue. I
prefer to eat variety and so I do not eat the same thing all of the
time.
