When I went to the refrigerator for something, I discovered shelves of mustard, possibly 50 or more jars. I can’t help but feel some of that was eventually wasted.

I’m about to run out of this one and don’t remember where I bought it.

Besides Walmart and Amazon that were previously mentioned, Publix's Sabor stores carry it as well (at least in South Fla.) Do you have one near you in Central Fla?

Columbus Georgia. Red Robin. Hamburger with whiskey river bbq sauce and onion straws. Unlimited steak fries. I tried ordering the grilled chicken version and they are out of grilled chicken due to supplier shortages.

I think Red Robin has very good burgers. And the one near me actually cooks to medium rare when I say med rare instead of overcooking them.

My wife went to her favorite Asian supermarket today in Mesa. Brought back some carryout food from Asian Cafe Express near the H-mart nearby.

They have some huge rice plates for only $6.25. I can only eat half a portion and an egg roll.

Here is Shrimp and vegetables over white rice.

And my favorite, black pepper chicken over brown rice.

Amazon has it in three and six packs. Walmart has two and six packs (sorry, the links for the Walmart pages got corrupted when posting, but it's more expensive than at Amazon).

I have limited space for food storage but I might be able to manage a 3 pack. I’m already concerned because my grocery stores have stopped carrying Finn Crisp crackers and the Amazon 9 pack is the smallest number that makes economic sense. I would probably share with my FIL and donate 3-4 to the food bank.

No Sabor close by that I know of. The Hispanic population really dwindles north of Orlando. Just us old folks up here. Perhaps on a shopping trip to the south of us. I’ll have to look at the website for locations.

I haven’t been in one for a couple years but I’ve always liked their food. The menu seems to have shrunk. Whose hasn’t? My biggest worry about RR is that I’ll find a kids birthday party inside. Even on the bar side sometimes. I hate noise. But it was pretty quiet. Just a few adults watching football. I ordered medium and received medium.

When we recently remodeled our kitchen, my wife insisted on having a walk-in pantry. It is 9X4 feet.

While in E. County San Diego, we (group of 8 people) tried an ethnic eatery "Al Azayem Restaurant". The ambiance was non-existent, the service was a meh, but the food was delicious and the place was unpretentious - two important factors for us! ;)

1/4 rotisserie chicken with rice and eggplant stew
Various kebobs and tikka dishes
Fish with fries
Eggplant salad
Chicken Milanese (Cream-chop)
Torshi (pickles), bread, and other dishes

I was thinking the same (not about your kitchen).

Beef and butternut squash stew over polenta for lunner tonight. Not a combination I’ll repeat. Squash is best roasted IMO.
