I know that many here complain that they get slush and mush in cans of tuna
today. I only buy Chicken of the Sea and only at Costco. I usually have
just one round of meat in the can that I have to break up to make tuna
salad. Maybe, max., a tablespoon of juice. Sometimes there are two pieces
of meat. Maybe Costco dictates the contents of the cans to major brands as
well.
OT have you seen the perennials and annuals that are zooming out of the
store each day and the prices? A full flat of 18, 3" pots is $11.99. If I
would buy separately at a greenhouse, the cost would be $1.49 each pot.
Gallon pots are going $21.99 for a set of 3. I've been at Costco 3 days in
a row, and every day, yesterday's plants offerings are totally gone.
Zowee!!
