11 Costco Food Court Scenarios Only a True Fan Understands

Costco has a cult following, and for good reason. It’s a giant warehouse with amazing products at low prices. That is, if you can really use Peter Thomas Roth face cream in bulk.

There’re also cases of organic apples, huge tubs of fresh spinach and 10-pound bags of carrots available for purchase. Make regular, advance meal planning a part of your life and you’ll use it all before it all gets soggy–no problem.

Though maybe you should skip the produce if you’re single and not juicing for every meal. That’s okay, too! There’s always the food court.

In fact, for all you Costco converts, here is a list of 11 food court scenarios only we can look at and say, “Oh…yeah definitely.”

1.  The food court you deserve

No-nonsense and sells everything you need.

Between paychecks? Costco’s got you.

Want your cheap pizza flat or rolled up?

4. All. Beef. Hot dog.

Protein packed.

5. If you could get that BBQ Brisket in bulk…

Change it up with some smoky BBQ.

6. Delicious, hot pizza

Look so fresh, but they don’t deliver [sad face].

7. The pizza hotline is the only number you ever want to know by heart

It shoots a pizza shaped signal in the sky. Not really, but it should.

10. Berry Sundaes are berry tasty

Yes, there’s even dessert!

11. And for anyone who wants to feel healthy, they’ve got smoothies!

Your calcium and fruit in a delicious shake.

See, Costco isn’t just for bulk shopping. For a few bucks (that you found in a pair of jeans you left on the floor last week), you can have a hot, filling meal or a frosty cold treat. Then, when you’re properly fortified, you’ll have the strength to wander from one end of Costco’s vastness to the other, picking your way through tables of track pants, jackets and pajamas.

So, make sure your membership is current, and head out to your local Costco for lunch or early dinner. While you’re there, pick up a nice rotisserie chicken for later.

Here Are 6 Important Places to Visit for Black History Month

February is Black History Month, commemorating the remarkable contributions of Black Americans. It’s an incredible legacy essential for all Americans to know about.

You can often find parks and other sites right in your hometown dedicated to facets of African American history, though you may need to look around a bit. Take the time to delve into the achievements behind the designations – it’s worth it. You may be surprised at what you uncover about the influence of the Black artists, politicians and leaders where you live.

For a more in-depth look at the culture and history of Black citizens throughout the U.S., here are a few places you should make plans to visit this February.

1. Civil Rights Trail

Crossing 15 states, this national trail tells the long story of the struggle of Black people for equality (still ongoing today, we should mention). One of the most important locations of the trail is the site where police confronted marchers on the Edmund Pettus Bridge, in Selma, Alabama.

2. National Museum of African-American History and Culture

Located in Washington DC, the museum documents Black history and culture. It officially opened it’s doors in November, 2016.

3. Beale Street Historic District

Many influential musicians contributed their talents to the young jazz and blues scene in this Memphis neighborhood, including Louis Armstrong and B.B. King. Blues fan Elvis Presley would go on to use the music he heard here as a teenager to develop his own style, which many would say put a white face on an African American style of music, thus making it acceptable for it to gain mass popularity in the 50s.

4. Negro Leagues Baseball Museum

Sharing space with the American Jazz Museum located in Missouri, this space is dedicated to Black baseball players. It houses photos and exhibits highlighting the careers of greats such as Jackie Robinson, Buck O’Neill and many others.

5. African Meeting House

One of the oldest historically Black churches in the U.S., the African Meeting House was built in the early 1800s. Yo can find it in the Beacon Hill neighborhood in Boston, where it was significant as a meeting place for the Black community as they organized for the abolition of slavery.

6. Harriet Tubman Historical Park

Famously a leader of the Underground Railroad, Harriet Tubman dedicated herself to the cause of freedom from slavery, even when her dedication risked her own life. The land around her former home and her A.M.E. Zion church in Auburn, New York was made a national historic park in 2017.
