Default Costco chili review

I bought a container of it on my way out as someone asked me to pick her up
some dinner. I only tried a bite of it as I had baked beans for breakfast
and didn't want bean overload. It was really good! Was it worth $3.99?
Probably not.

Are you sure she can bring herself to handle cooked chicken?

So? I wouldn't eat it. And neither would anyone else here. So wouldn't
buy it.

Not for me.

Why would I handle it? We won't eat it. I even bought the rotisserie
chicken off the bone and had to toss it as my husband hated it. We are just
not chicken people. I will eat canned and the Schwans crispy strips
although I am getting rather burned out on those. Any other kind of chicken
is not pleasant to me.

And that was chicken breasts with no bones. Not rotisserie chicken. They
won't eat that. And I won't eat those chicken breasts.

As I said. Not the same thing. You're talking about a rotisserie chicken.
Nobody here will eat that, no matter where it comes from.

Apparently there is because they won't eat the rotisserie stuff even off of
the bone.

Right. We're not. I can't remember the last time I cooked it. Angela has
gone off of it except occasionally for the Mexican kind of shredded stuff.
And my husband was eating Cheezit chicken but he didn't want it the last
time that I made it. I've never liked it myself and it certainly never was
my husband's favorite food. Yes, I did do the plain chicken breasts with no
bones because that was about the only kind of meat that Angela would eat.
You couldn't pay her to eat it now. She isn't eating much meat at all these
days. Husband has always preferred beef.

Nonsense. Seems like for many people here, every day in their house is just
like all the others. It's not that way here. We get burned out on stuff
and we change what we like. That doesn't make us demented.

That's just not true! Why do people always say this? People who say this
are obviously not picky eaters. We'd starve before eating what we don't
like.

Ha! Nope! I suspect that people who say this are the type who are tempted
by foods and can't resist. Or something like that. The opposite of us.

Again, you have never been truly hungry, as in starvation mode, hopefully
you never are.

Easy to say when the refrigerator is full. Truly starving people will

Hell, if they were truly starving, I mean truly starving, their pets would
not be safe.

That's an extremely offensive statement. Do you understand what starving means? You ****ing pig woman.

It has been happening in Syria. They were starving and ate all animals and
in the end had only grass. People died before relief supplies were allowed
in.

THAT is starvation!

And nobody has a situation like that in mind when they innocently
state that they don't eat rotisserie chicken. Nor is the preparation
of pets or grass a common topic in rec.food.cooking Although I
think dsi1 might start a thread called "Cooking during biblical
plagues" one of these days.

I actually have. In fact I nearly starved to death following an illness as
a teen. I went into anorexia but not for the usual reasons. I had been ill
for so long that I became fearful of any and all food. I felt hungry but
was too afraid to eat because I couldn't bear the pain of throwing up yet
again. Never really occurred to me at that point that by not eating, I
could die. I think my brain was shutting down at that point.

I had just gone back to school and in biology class, we had to take our
vital signs. I called the teacher over when I couldn't get a pulse and my
BP registered something like 10/0. The only thing I had consumed that day
was black coffee and Tab (diet cola). I refused to take in anything with
calories. I knew how to take a pulse and BP as we had a cuff at home. The
teacher joked that I should be dead. But then I passed out. He had someone
put me in his wheeled chair and take me out for air. Then he called my mom
and told her to take me to the hospital which was just across the street.

She did not take me there. Instead, she took me to the Dr. That's just
what people seemed to do in those days. The Dr. said if I was unable to eat
and keep food down within 24 hours, I would be admitted to the hospital. At
that point I was down to 85 pounds which is not enough for someone who is 5'
7". I know I have told this story before and I get sick of telling it.

Don't tell me that I was never starving. I was. And not because I was
poor. I can also easily skip meals although that's not good for my blood
sugar. I have been having a terrible time after having my thyroid out. I
rarely had an appetite prior and now it has gotten worse.

But one thing you will never catch a truly picky eater do is eat something
they can't stand. That just does not happen.

Right. I always have a stockpile no matter where I am. Even if we are
making a cross country move, I'll have a suitcase of food.

That's a horrible thing to say! I am one of those people who would feed a
pet before I fed myself if it came down to it. I chose to take in those
pets and I promised to take care of them. I do not happen to think that a
human life is more valuable than that of another animal.

Correct. Hopefully I will never be in such a situation but if I were, I
likely would just wish myself dead.

You are way off base (again). You cannot lump people that choose to starve
themselves, for whatever reason, with people that are starving from lack of
food. You are shameless. Couldn't get a pulse,had a BP of 10/0? And you
called the teacher over? LMAO, your most ridiculous story yet.

I dunno. . .I almost died from extreme lack of nourishment due to a
long illness. I had lost 95 pounds. They kept me in the hospital for
2 weeks. At one time I had 7 IV's going at one time. (arm and neck)
The doctor said I was 2 days from dead because my internal organs were
affected, primarily my heart. I'd say you were darn lucky? that you
were able to resolve the issue with a visit to the doctor and some
snacks and no saline, glucose or blood or a myriad of tests.

I have told the story before. It did happen. It wasn't funny. Point
being, that I *could* actually starve myself. I *did* do it. There is
nothing to laugh about. Being as sick as I was for as long as I was, was no

You were starving from a mental disorder, not for lack of availability
of food. It was your choice to starve. I now someone else that did that
and he has been on medication for the past 45 years.

Put that picky eater in Syria and see what happens.

Who said I resolved it with some snacks? I certainly did not. I had been
seeing the Dr. all the while because I was so ill. He did prescribe
something. I don't remember what. He had prescribed all sorts of things.
Pills, liquids and suppositories. None of which seemed to help. I don't
remember all of the particulars. I was just a teen then and I'm 56 now. He
was also one of those types of old fashioned Drs. who had liked to dumb
things down for people and my parents were all for getting the dumbed down
version.

I was also underweight to start with and had reactive hypoglycemia along
with some other problems. I have never been particularly healthy.

My laughter was over your claim to have had "no pulse" and a BP of 10/0,
yet you were somehow able to converse with your teacher. That is laughable.
And what is truly pathetic, is your inability to grasp the concept of true
hunger that people face in the absence of food, which you continue to
confuse with whatever mental illness you had at the time. That you *could*
starve yourself as an anorexic, as a choice, has no bearing. After all,
you didn't actually starve yourself to death now, did you, because you are
still here to regale us with your tale of woe.

That is not what I said. I said I could not find a pulse. I actually said
I couldn't "get" a pulse. I know how you are and if I don't say it exactly
right, you will pick hairs. I called the teacher over because I thought
somehow I was doing something wrong. He came over, got pretty much the
same, joked that I should be dead and all I remember after that was opening
my eyes and saying, "Mr. Cook! What are you doing in my bedroom?" I do
remember feeling very sleepy and relaxed and thought I was home in bed.
Nope. I had fallen against this guy that I had a crush on, knocking him
into the counter on my way down where I landed on the hard tile floor.

I also never said that I starved myself to death. How could anyone say
that? Do you think they access a computer in the afterlife?

I just get sick of people saying that stupid thing about how others would
eat _____ if they were starving. They can only speak for themselves. They
might eat _____. Doesn't mean others will. Especially picky eaters.

I also get sick of people saying that I was never starving. I was.

As a matter of fact, most people who have diabetes like I do were
essentially starving upon diagnosis. Of course there are exceptions. But
when blood sugar goes high, the blood cells (to dumb it down) get coated
with sugar so nutrients can't get in. They could be eating food but it
wouldn't be doing them much good because that fuel couldn't get to where it
needed to go.

"Hunger" _is_ the 'spice' of Life! If a person is truly and literally
starving, then they will eat anything, including live insects (think
roaches, locusts & such) and worse. Of course, if bove were to truly
suffer like survivors of The Holocaust and Vietnam POWs, then the woman
would learn -- and believe/know -- otherwise!

It wasn't a mental illness. It obviously did not stick with me. My point
is that I was starving. Cheri said that was never starving. I know I have
told this story before. Maybe not here but on another newsgroup where she
posts. It just kind of makes me angry when people try to tell me that
something didn't happen when I know that it did.

They'll starve. I don't think you are a picky eater. I think that I am one.
However, there are a ton of picky eaters in the FB group I belong to who
wouldn't consider me to be one because I eat far more foods than they do. I
won't go into all of what some of those poor people go through on a daily
basis. It is a closed group and they are speaking in confidence. But I can
assure you that they would not eat that which they do not like.

But there is a huge difference in not being able/wanting to eat due to
sickness etc. and actual starvation when one is healthy and the lack of food
is the sole reason that one is failing and dying. That has never happened to
you and as I said, hopefully none of us are ever subjected to that.

You weren't starving due to lack of food being available so you have no idea
of what true starvation entails, so the whole conversation has become a dead
