Default Costco has chili now!

At the snack bar, I mean. Not sure when they added it to the menu but it
has pinto beans. I prefer kidney. I guess the pinto are cheaper. I didn't
try it today but I might at some point. Anyone else tried it?

So... Every grocery store has a snack bar and serves cups of hot chili? I
don't think so.

I find the most amazing things at grocery stores. I mean there is like
food, stuff to drink, baked goods. It's amazing what you find in a grocery
store.

While some of the grocery stores here do sell hot and ready to eat food, not
all do and most do not have hot chili. Or a snack bar.

I must be in the minority. I don't go looking for snack bars when I'm
shopping, be it at a grocery store or Costco (if there was one around).
My rule of thumb: eat something before you go shopping.

Ditto. However, I do know that my local supermarket, which pales
in comparison to the likes of Publix, has a salad bar and a couple
of 'soup of the day' offerings. I imagine that, at least during the
winter, you can find chili there. That kind of thing is the norm
where I live.

I did once buy a container of chili at Whole Foods, you could
serve yourself a couple of different sizes, I think. Just wanted
to try it and I was hungry. It wasn't bad, but I make better and
it's really an expensive way to eat.

I'm pretty sure there's a salad bar at Publix. Likely they have soup,
too. I've never actually looked for it. I do know I've never seen any
sort of seating area. That's what I think of when I think of a "snack
bar". Gotta have at least a couple of tables & a couple of chairs, right?

Maybe it's just me but I've never seen people walking around in a store
eating food from a snack bar. (Keep in mind there is no Costco nearby
and the Demo Dollies at Publix or Food Lion are never offering more than
a bite.)

$4 for a cup of chili is pretty darned expensive. Likely it came out of
a can. If she can make better chili at home sans pinto beans that's
what she should do. It's her choice.

Me, I try not to go shopping when I'm hungry. It doesn't always work
out that way but I don't go looking for a snack bar. I just finish my
shopping and go home and have a bite to eat. YMMV

The most expensive chili I've seen is at the local ski lodge, $4.99
for an 8 ounce styrofoam cup, straight from a can.

I agree! I visited Costco before xmas and the noise, bustle and crowds
around the exit, where the snack bar is, were hardly conducive to
enjoying anything. The exit at Home Depot has a snack bar as well.
Furthermore, whatever the time I go to a shopping mall, the food courts
are always busy. Makes one wonder if anyone cooks at home these days.

The snack bar at Costco, is located so that when people are finished checking out, they can stop and get a snack. Most everyone sitting there has a cart Our Home Depot does not have a snack bar but I would guess it is similar.

I have only been to Home Depot once and that was many, many years ago. No
food there then.

I have never eaten at the Costco snack bar but I sure see a lot of people
doing it.

Some of the Wegman's stores have a regular lunch counter as well as a
self serve. People nearby go to them just for lunch. They get very
crowded at times.

I'm not familiar with Wegman's since I don't live in your area. I have
no doubt what you say is true. But that's a lunch counter with seating,
right? (I remember a Woolworth's lunch counter when I worked retail in
a Mall in the 1970's.)

I don't think that's what Julie is talking about. She's talking about
the same place (or was that Target?!) where she used to buy nachos with
Cheese Whiz-like sauce on tortilla chips. Then she complained because
it didn't agree with her digestive system. I remember this because it
sounded like the cheap "nachos" I saw on a menu at the snack bar at the
drive-in movies in the 1970's. I didn't buy them then, either.

Yes, I know, she merely asked has anyone tried it the chili. No, I have
not. I wouldn't, because I don't look for lunch at a grocery store. I
buy ingredients for cooking there.

When I was a kid, one Safeway had a lunch counter and we loved it.
Especially my dad. He would take us there for dinner sometimes. He always
got the steak. To get that, one had to go to the meat counter and purchase
the steak that they wanted. Then they took it to the lunch counter to be
cooked. I don't know the cost of this meal but it was either free or quite
cheap. They cooked your steak to your liking and added a baked potato and
salad. This was only available at dinner time and not lunch.

My mom and I usually had lunch there on Saturdays and it was worked into our
shopping. We went to at least three different stores on each shopping trip
and this was the last one. I almost always had a stuffed tomato or cottage
cheese and fruit and maybe some soup. It made for a very inexpensive meal.

Count me with you (except I would rather not eat before grocery
shopping, because I won't even buy everything written on my list)...
and I'll never understand the stop and eat at the mall food court
mentality either. Trader Joe's always has coffee samples and
demonstrates some product, but I don't bother with samples unless I'm
completely interested in what they're showing. I ended up buying all
the components to a yummy salad they were demonstrating... which meant
I spent $10 on a tiny bottle of balsamic vinegar (recreating that
salad was totally worth the cost).

Some people can't walk by snack bars. I used to stop at food courts
occasionally when I was on the road. I learned not to.

The stores where I shop sometimes have samples. It is rarely anything
that I would be interested in. It is pretty much like the concept of
coupons for me. I usually only get them for things I am not likely to
buy. I am not in the habit of trying something new just because of the
coupon. The last time I did that was for a breakfast cereal. It looked
to be a fairly healthful one, with lots of fibre. It was horrible. I
think it was developed in conjunction with the development of composite
materials for stealth aircraft. The name even reinforced that idea....
Vector.

Many years ago when our mall was new, they had a cheap Mexican place that
was good. We did go there and we did eat. Often we went there just to eat.
I hate malls and I have no need to shop in any of their stores. So now I
just don't go there. Haven't been there for years.

A good rule... and one I rarely manage to do

But even if hungry when shopping, I'm aware of it and it doesn't
influence my decisions. It's not that hard for me as most
fast/convenient food turns me right off anyway.

I don't either. I just happened to see the sign as I was checking out.
However, with me being diabetic, I never know when low blood sugar might
strike and I might need to eat. And yes, I do keep food with me at all
times. It's just nice to know that the chili would be an option if I were
there and needed to eat.

It all depends. I have back issues so a spot to sit for a bit makes a
major plus on a store for me.

Thanks, I have not tried it but I will. I hav3 found that Costco has really good food that is made in house. I love the chicken salad, tho I know they had a problem with it, and their shrimp salad is excellent I often buy the prepared casseroles, like chicken Alfredo and like it all. Will get some the next time I am there>

Sounds like a good idea. As far as I know it's not served here. It's probably because chili is served with rice in Hawaii and Costco would have to implement a system of handling cooked rice. That might take some doing at a corporate level. OTOH, serving rice opens a whole new slew of menu items possible. They could serve chili with hot dogs and rice or rice and roasted chicken. Of course, this would disrupt that well-oiled, limited menu, food service system they already have in place.

When in the mood for not cooking I will buy a family sized bucket of chile from Wendys. Nothing special, but I doll it up a bit by sauteeing mushrooms and onions and bellpeppers and jalapeno for 6 minutes or so, then adding sliced garlic and a bunch or two of chopped parsely with 2 or 3 chopped up roma tomatoes to the mix. I can go 6 days on the stuff, eating it with rice. I am not a cook, more of a prepper. And when I say I eat the same thing 6 days in a row, that's just one meal. I have another meal the same days that is different.

This week I made my own beans, kidneys - not the ultra dark kind, the light red. Then I sauteed the same stuff I normally toss into Wendys chile and tossed it into my own beans when they were done cooking. Not bad.

I will look again next time I am there. I only glanced at the sign and saw
pinto. I still don't like them in chili, even when mixed with kidney.
Unless perhaps it is the three bean chili but that's a different beast.

Oh ick. I can get a can of chili at Dollar Tree for a dollar. It's a tad
watery but it tastes fine.

I did not realize the price! That's bad. Doesn't look like it comes with
cheese or onions either but I think there are onions on the condiment bar.

Why are you replying to your abuser yet again?

Are you a masochist?

Get some psychological counseling, soon.

It's unhealthy to feed a man who stalks and abuses you publicly.

Boredom is now another word for attention seeking? I'm just surprised you
didn't start a brand new thread about it.

And yet, Julie can (and does) do the exact same thing and you have
nothing to say about that.
