I thought of it, but what I want is corned beef, as you say.

It's so much worse in the supermarket, that really gets annoying.
Costco (at least the one I'm talking about) has maybe 5 aisles of
food, not counting the freezer/refrigerator aisles. You can still do
a lot of running around in that section. I've done enough of that
recently looking for that au jus product someone (sw?) mentioned.
You don't realize how much real estate we talking until you check out
every square foot.

I thought they usually carried corned beef. Oh, well.
