Was wandering through CostCo and, much to my surprise, found this:
Interesting. The label on the bucket wasnt too helpfull so a quick trip to the manufacturers website (www.nutristorage.com) gave me a bit more info. First off, CostCo is pimping these things for about $110 versus the $200 theyre asking on the website. Contents? Mostly vegetarian items…including ‘Ala King’..yes, thats Ala King by itself. Not Chicken Ala King, not Shrimp Ala King…just ‘Ala King’. That creeps me out..sorry.
They do offer a sampler pack for twenty bucks off the website.
Im going to keep an eye open and see if this stuff winds up getting marked down any further. I’d rather stick to my Mountain House and other munchies but for a hundred bucks this might make an excellent secondary or tertiary food backup.
I’d love it if you could find time to make a post just about food storage products. Food for storage, I mean. Not buckets and such. Which are the best tasting? Where are the best places to buy?
Unfortunately, we don’t have a Costco here, or I’d probably check out that bucket o’food.
Cool – and all of the items are vegetarian according to the ingredients! I need to find a Costco around here.
Costco does sell to non-members at price plus 5% and shipping. I’ve found that the foods at Sam’s Club on name brands are the same but on deals like this a half step behind Costco. For most non food items IMO Sam’s is behind Costco’s quality even if it’s a name brand.
Thanks for the info.
I say what next no King? Will we soon be reduced to surviving on mere Ala?
ah
wonder if it tastes good? Wildflower
