I am so disappointed. We went on our regular run to Costco this past week and they are no longer carrying the MaraNatha Almond Butter!! My son has a peanut allergy and we love the almond butter. It is such a good buy there and now I need to search out a new place to buy it. They are carrying another brand of almond butter, although it contains eggs and my son is allergic to eggs as well…any suggestions? Thanks!

It’s definitely smart to pack snacks for the planes. When i went to Spain, my mom signed up my family for a vegetarian meal and they actually turned out vegan and quite good! They were chocked full of veggies and not exactly fresh but seasoned and sauced and marinated enough to be enjoyable. I was pleasantly surprised- after all, it’s tough packing enough snacks for almost 24 hours of traveling! Especially when you are coming from Spain, where you don’t have any Trader Joes, Whole Foods, or the likes

Eating Bender, always happy to spread the love of Costco, and thanks again for introducing me to the cranberry goat cheese. I’m going to serve that from now on whenever I have people over. A huge hit last time!

Dinner on the plane looks good…but the book your reading looked even better

I love that you love Costco so much…because you know I do, too! My family especially enjoys their prepared foods. So I guess that’s my ideal meal – a little bit takeout and a little bit homemade. I could be like Sandra Lee on the Food Network!

Hey Alisa, Ha – looks of envy…you’re so right! Sunshine burgers are really good – no gluten, soy, or dairy. I find them in the freezer section at Whole Foods, but they only come 3 to a box. At first, I thought they tasted kind of funky, but now they are my favorite veggie burger. The Garden Herb flavor is so tasty.

COSTCO!!!!!!!!!
i swear, i don’t go there just for the food samples…but hey, that’s a plus isn’t it?

i love getting their flat out wraps, the frozen goods always have some great pickings, fruit and vegs., ENERGY BARS (larabars, clif, etc!!!) are all good deals…

food shopping is great! looks like you are stocked!

I alwayyyyys pack for the plane or the car ride! I need my healthy food too!

That is so sweet that your mom left you soup- tooo sweet!

I love grocery shopping! Right now in the apartment we have no room for food. As soon as we move, I will be getting another BJs/Costco/or Sam’s club membership!

I have never had Sunshine Burgers, how are they? Are they sold in any major stores?

I hear you on the fridge. Somehow it was magically sparse after the holidays!

I am definitely a snack-packer too, and yes, always funny looks – or perhaps they are looks of envy

Tracey,
Where do you live? I am green with envy – 12 Chobanis for $11.69?!? I will request some at my local Costco – they need to start stocking the Greek yogurt! I saw Roll-Ups once, but didn’t buy them, and now I don’t think they have them anymore. I’ll be on the lookout. Thanks Tracey!
