dog food

peanut butter

...where are you going with this, Ken?

[–] TeddE@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

Who's a good gym buddy? 🤔 Ken's a good gym buddy! 🐶

Ken has completed a set. Will you give them a treat?

[–] AA5B@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Except Kirkland peanut butter is a miss. It tastes great but is mostly oil. Something like Teddys has a higher proportion of peanut solids

Tbf, Costco doesn't make any of that either. They just white label things

[–] SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 21 points 3 weeks ago

Well I mean, it does say "Kirkland signature" not "made in Kirkland."

They're just putting their signature on it.

[–] NaibofTabr@infosec.pub 13 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Yup, they buy up portions of production runs and relabel it. This is why some products are not available sometimes - because they couldn't negotiate the contract to be able to sell it at the Costco price.

Wait ‘til they find out the cereal in bags is the same thing as the cereal in boxes.

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

And you get brand name shit in bulk for cheap. There's no downside. I'll gladly buy Kirkland anything except dishwasher pods. Those suck donkey balls.

[–] zalgotext@sh.itjust.works 9 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

All dishwasher pods suck donkey balls though

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

True and I have switched to liquid detergent since, but the Kirkland ones especially leave a gross residue on everything.

[–] BigDiction@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

We usually get the Cascade pods but tried Kirkland this year and haven’t noticed a difference.

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

They put a cloudy residue on Tupperware and pans for me.

[–] adarza@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 weeks ago

iirc, they have their own meat processing facilities. part of that production is used to make the hot dogs (since ~ 2011) for their long-running $1.50 combo with a soft drink.

American components, Russian components, ALL MADE IN TAIWAN!

I'm starting to think maybe we don't deserve Ken Jennings.

Nobody should take that as an invitation to ruin him for me.

[–] i_stole_ur_taco@lemmy.ca 15 points 3 weeks ago

My company hired him as a keynote speaker for a company all hands event. He talked for about half an hour and then hosted a fake Jeopardy round with some of the staff asking company and city trivia.

He was charming, gracious, interesting, and funny throughout.

I hate everything about that company and their leadership, but Ken… Ken was a good decision. An awesome dude.

Reread the whole thing once I realized it was Ken Jennings at the end.

[–] okwhateverdude@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Honestly could almost be KenM

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 10 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

They're one Ken the same

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 10 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Imagine being addicted to brand names and billboarding yourself out like some sort of corporate hoe.

Like, goddamn... At least get paid!

I've never seen a worse example of this than people who put the Monster logo on their cars. How is it even possible to feel that level of pride in your energy drink of choice?

[–] can@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

Kirkland is the cheaper store brand so advertising that on your body is kind of funny. I guess since it's membership only its the higher-end cheaper option.

[–] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 5 points 3 weeks ago

Eventually it'll be the "Gulf of Kirkland" if they keep going like this.

[–] HowAbt2day@futurology.today 4 points 3 weeks ago

Non of the major athletics wear suppliers can snatch a sponsor like William Montgomery.

Burned by Ken!
