I grew up with $20 walmart blenders, and hated anything that required a blender.

Recently bought a ninja and there is no going back. I’ll never use a crappy blender again.

Anything else like that?

Cooking spray is straight up gross and an extra expense. Get some regular oil and a cast iron skillet, you will go through the oil maybe once a year? The skillet will outlive you.

Also don’t hate yourself, a little butter goes a very long way friends

Cooking spray is hit and miss with store brands, though. Walmart’s store brand is shit, but imho the Safeway store brand is superior in spray coverage, flavor, and pricing.

Ain’t no spray that’s as good as some plain old olive oil or butter… And you can just buy a refillable spray bottle for your oil if you really prefer spraying.

Adli’s beer is usually locally sourced. I lived in Columbus OH for a time, and the selection was actually pretty good (depending on season).

I’ve also seen Aldi stock horrible beer, both in Columbus and elsewhere.

Their Howling Gourd beer and ciders in the fall… So good. You have to get them fast at our location, otherwise they sell out very quick. Of course, our store has people driving from literal neighboring states to shop there, acting like animals and loading up their carts by clearing out whole items as if it were toilet paper during lockdown, so that might also affect our stock 🙄

As far as cooking spray goes, you pay for the can and then you pay for the product inside. A silicone brush and a few drops of good cooking oil works equally good and you know exactly what you’re cooking with.
