They've still managed to chip away at it a little. It used to be that you could pick a regular hot dog or a polish sausage for the same price, but the latter is gone now. They also used the pandemic as an excuse to get rid of the sauerkraut, and now I think even the onions are gone.

Also during the pandemic, the local Costco Business Center just demolished their cafe entirely.

You can still get a polish burpfest in Canada

I can't prove it but I think the Kirkland paper towels quality has gone down too.

And they aren't nearly as good as the sauerkraut and onions were.

At least at my Costco we never had sauerkraut. We had the onion dispenser thing before COVID. Now if you ask, they give you onions.

Sauerkraut is one of the reasons I enjoy Sam's dogs more.

I bet it did, but you just didn't know it. It was always a thing you had to ask for, and they'd give it to you from behind the counter.

You can still get onions at my Costco, you just have to ask at the counter. Never seen the polish though, and now I feel nostalgic for something I've never had...
