I disagree about the meat. Publix has much better quality chicken and pork, especially their Greenwise brand. Costco chicken is freakishly big, even compared to Tyson or Purdue at Kroger. I used to find weird spots on the chicken breast and thighs I haven’t seen elsewhere. The chicken is tougher as well.
The wild seafood is great. Choice Beef is the same as anywhere and I have no complaints. Prime beef is a great option but I rarely buy it.
- kunai 7y agoPublix is a southeastern U.S. exclusive. I pity all the smug Bay Area folk who will never get to experience how wonderful this little grocery chain is.
- wil421 7y agoPublix is opening a Greenwise Market store next to me. Can’t wait to see all the good stuff.
- beatgammit 7y agoWe rarely buy chicken at Costco for just that reason. Chicken at our local grocery store is comparable quality and it's frequently on sale (loss leader perhaps?).
- freyir 7y agoCostco actually struggles to purchase small chickens, which it uses for its $4.99 rotisserie. According to this article published last week, it’s opening a $450M poultry complex in Nebraska because suppliers aren’t providing enough small chickens. https://www.cnn.com/2019/10/11/business/costco-5-dollar-chicken/index.html https://www.cnn.com/2019/10/11/business/costco-5-dollar-chic...
