Costco Thread 2025

Oh hell no. If I wanted any of that, I’ll go to a proper night market stand, not Costco.

I tried the Braised Pork Rice and I got Diarrhea within 2 hours.
Tasted fine, but it pretty clearly made me sick (only other things I had: plain Costco Hotdog, and cup of coffee)

So you’d say about seven out of ten then, for Taiwanese food? Eight?

It’s a Costco 5/10 - same level as the hotdogs (hotdogs don’t give me water diarrhea, but they are unremarkable).
I wish Costco would put Chickenbakes on the menu!

Anyone been through the scanners yet? I see lot’s of discussion on local FB about privacy concerns on the apparently “compulsory” required photo taking that’s not actually legal and can be disputed with staff. No doubt lengthy queues develop behind the disputers…

I was at the Neihu branch and the scanner was in place. I have the Costco app so I just scanned my barcode - no problem. I was hoping that it would thin out the looky-loos, but it turns out there are plenty of card carrying tasters to fill the space. Some lines had 20 people waiting for a sample at 7pm.

That’s probably my daughter and me.. better than shopping with my wife!

Well, my photo is so old the cashier did not recognize me!

Another localising win, anyone try the new Fhesh Mushrooms? I somehow doubt the packaging was designed/printed in Malaysia.
