Costco Shame.......

[java]

We all have it - buried in the back of the pantry - or in the basement. That one GIANT item that you CAN NOT no matter how hard you try use up.

I have a box of wax paper- Handy Wacks- 500 sheets. I bought it in 2001 I think. And I still have about 490 sheets to go.

So what about you? Big can of tuna? I know I can't be alone. what do you have that you can't use up.

Taco Seasoning.. I thought, HEY! I make tacos a lot. Not as much as I though, I guess.

Well, let me start by saying I LOVE COSTCO!!!! But the large jar or marinated mushrooms has been in the frig for awhile!

I bought a bottle of fish oil capsules. 85,000? (exaggerating of course) But thet didn't stay "fresh" for the length of the bottle.

I'll never forget the HUGE can of alfredo sauce I bought when dh and I were first married. I think we ate one or two meals out of it, then it sat in our fridge for who knows how long. That thing was nasty moldy!

An industrial-sized vat of parmesean cheese.

a huge hotdog...and a broom that almost too out an eye

A box of plastic wrap. I don't even bother using it, because it's so huge. I can't keep it in a drawer. I only pull it out if I'm desperate (if we're completely out of Saran wrap.) We purchased it in 2003.

I keep think of the "Seinfeld" episode where Kramer says "They're Lindsay olives, Jerry!" and totally makes himself sick.

An industrial-sized vat of parmesean cheese.

We can go through that in a week at our house! (which is either or depending on your opinion of fat grams and how many is too many...)

My item of shame is bread mix, for the bread machine. We OD'd on the stuff LONG before I could use it all up.

cornstarch Can't even remember what I bought it for. But now a big can of sauerkraut. We've used some of it for about 6 reubens, but now, we are reubened out. Any ideas.

us too!

Parsley! Good heavens, I'm quite sure I'll have that jug until the day I die! But in my defense, I didn't buy it myself....a friend gave it to me after she came to her senses and realized she'd never use it.

Yep-mine has its own cupboard! But I do use it and it works great, but such a hassle!! I'm going to have to leave it to someone in my will.

Multi Pack of Ziplocs.

I think we'll be using these at least until 2020, there are SO many Zippies.

 

[MomofKatie]

Lemon Pepper seasoning and Sharpie markers. I think we have about 30 Sharpies laying around.

A gallon bottle of Frank's Hot Sauce! What was I thinking????????
