Re: Costco
[ QUOTE ]
kosher has everything to do with "clean." citanul [/ QUOTE ] From this Site <font color="red"> What Kosher is NOT: The modern World has often thought the "laws of kosher" were based on hygiene. It was believed by some that kosher animals were healthier to eat than non-kosher animals. It was also noted that the laws of purity (Leviticus 11-15) not only describe the difference between clean and unclean animals, but also describe other phenomena related to health. Thus, it was natural for many to assume that all the laws of kashrut were merely hygienic in intent and origin. Also wrong is the belief that kosher means blessed by a Rabbi. </font> <font color="red"> What Kosher is: Basically, Dietary laws or rules Rules such as do not mix milk and meat to which animals you can eat. There is nothing intrinsically wicked about eating pork or lobster, and there is nothing intrinsically moral about eating cheese or chicken instead. But what the Jewish way of life does by imposing rules on our eating, sleeping, and working habits is to take the most common and mundane activities and invest them with deeper meaning, turning every one of them into an occasion for obeying (or disobeying) God. </font> |

Re: Costco
i didn't mean "clean" as in hygenical. i meant clean as in won't make you puke, etc. but i also understand the other part. i'm not going to have any more discussion on this here, though i have some interest in the laws of kosher, because this is very much the wrong forum for it.

Re: Costco
I cannot believe nobody has mentioned Oberto beef jerky yet.
Two big bags, $10.99. I can't set foot in Costco without buying jerky. Or a hot dog, just like everyone else. sfer, I don't know how you can eat TWO of those dogs. I'm stuffed after eating just one of them. |

[ QUOTE ] What's Burning Man? [/ QUOTE ] A hippy fest where a bunch of hippy drug users go out to the middle of the desert, do a bunch of drugs and listen to hippy music. They also apparently burn a giant "man" one of the hippies made. [ QUOTE ] I will be lobbying hard for naked Costco workers here. [/ QUOTE ] This is a good idea, and I'd vote for you. <font color="white">wonder how long it'll take for someone to respond defending burning man? Not that I actually care at all about it. </font> [/ QUOTE ] Damn Hippie Will Burn Giant Clock at Burning Man |

[/ QUOTE ] You could just go to Oberto's website, where that same $10 will get you 2.5lb of jerky (look under "factory ends and pieces") instead of the 8oz you'd get at Costco. You have to pay shipping, but if you just order over $75 (19 pounds of jerky ends, 25 pounds of shredded jerky, or 38 pounds of slim-jim-esque sausage) they'll waive those charges [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] |

To get them that cheap, you have to be buying some seriously low quality meat. [/ QUOTE ] Yes. They're hot dogs. What do you think they put in hot dogs? |
