Hopefully you’re geared up for another beautiful summer weekend? I know we are, and while I don’t know what’s going to be for dinner yet, I know that this Don Pancho Cilantro Lime Crema is going to be on the menu!
It looks delicious, and as it suggests on the bottle, sounds like it could be an everything sauce! The only issue is that it has to be refrigerated so it’ll be taking up some precious real estate in there for a bit.
I feel like it’s been years since we’ve had Granny Smith apples at our Costco, so when I saw them today I did a double take and grabbed a bag! My better half loves those!
Me? I don’t mind those, but I’ll take the Dunn’s dill pickle peanuts any day of the week!
Of course I prefer the Dunn’s dill pickle chips, but I’ll take what I can get!
These Copper mugs were another new addition to the aisles today, and I gotta say they look and feel really nice & I’m sure many a summer cocktail could be enjoyed in those if you were so inclined!
Another new item is the KFI Tikka Masala sauce. This adds to the delicious butter chicken sauce they have as well.
While I enjoy both of those, I’d really love to see the Vindaloo appear in my neck of the woods, cause I love the spicy stuff and I’ve been wanting to try that one! I know I’ve seen it in the Barrie warehouse, so when I’m there next week I think I’ll just give in and pick it up!
Well, I’m gonna hit the road folks. Dinner is calling, and Dexter is looking like he needs some attention…So spoiled…
Anyhow, have a great weekend. I’ll be seeing you all soon!
Don’t forget to check in with Rhonda over at the Costco Quebec Fan Blog and see what fun sales are happening there!
The Copper Mugs are for a specific cocktail, called “Moscow Mule”. Many will say that the copper enhances the taste of vodka as well…but what do I know, I don’t drink at all…never have! 😉
Copper is eventually toxic. That’s why copper pans etc. are lined with another metal. So while it may enhance vodka, the side effects could be deadly ☠️. But they sure are purty eh?!
Thanks for posting the South Africa Granny Smith apples. They are my favourite — crunchy, juicy and sweet. Our local grocery stores seem to carry only Washington state Granny Smiths and they are not nearly as good. I’ll be on the lookout for these apples on my visit to Costco next week. P.S. they are also great chopped up into medium-sized pieces and added to a curry near the end of the cooking time.
@IndianChef yeah apparently they’re a thing in Japanese curries – everyone tends to get the same few brands of curry cubes but they make it unique for their family by adding like chocolate, apples or even banana at the end for a bit of “je ne sais quoi” in the flavour
Yes! Apple in a curry. Leftover potato too if you like. I make a chicken or lamb curry and about 15 minutes before it is done, I add apple, potato, carrots, cauliflower, etc. — whatever is left over in the fridge. My family loves it. Nothing wasted. My husband is from England — they love curries over there.
@ Jan in Watertown…. If copper was actually toxic I doubt all of the waterlines in houses would be made of copper. The miniscule amount that would ever leech out of water lines or those cups would never hurt you.
Hi Jen, I think the concern with copper is about possible chemical reactions when it comes in contact *over time* with various food and drink ingredients. Hence the lining of the copper with a non reactive metal. Water pipes are ok.
If you’ve ever had the Kirkland Signature taco kits with the lime crema sauce, this Don Pancho lime crema is the same stuff! It’s made by Reser’s.
So glad to see them finally bring it to Canada. I know it’s been sold in US Costco for a long time now.
Will definitely be on the lookout now.
