This afternoon, I bought some meatballs from the Safeway deli for part of my lunch. I've had these meatballs several times before, and they are so good. According to the label, they are honey garlic flavoured. Well, when I put one in my mouth and bit down, I gagged and had to spit it out into the garbage as it tasted so disgusting (but not as ( Read more... )

Oh God, I HATE BBQ sauce. Just the idea of it is so nauseating to me. I'm glad they didn't hassle you.

The taste is revolting. I smelled the meatballs, and the scent of BBQ sauce was so strong!

I can't even stand it when my family has ribs that are all slathered in sauce because it sits in the kitchen and I can just smell it.

Yeah, the smell is horrible! You're the second person I know who hates BBQ sauce--my sister being the other person.

My opinion is that BBQ sauce should never by consumed by anyone. Ever. Its just beyond nasty.

This opinion did not go over too well when I visited the South.

So you can imagine how disgusted I was when I realized that it was not only the wrong sauce, but BBQ sauce!

Oh absolutely. Good to hear Safeway allowed the return. I had a run in with them a few years ago where they wouldn't take back unopened, unexpired cheese that had mold in it. Took it all the way to the manager - no dice. Perhaps there is more competition now and they have to be nicer.

WTH? That's a valid return. Once, at a different location, I returned a newly opened, unexpired tub of sour cream because when I opened it, the consistency seemed off. I felt silly for returning a perishable item, but I had just bought it a couple days prior, and it was like $4!

At the store, I needed some unsalted butter. I noticed one block left and put it in my basket, not really paying attention.

At the checkout, I realised that somebody had put goat's milk butter in the compartment which is supposed to have unsalted butter. And so, I had picked up goat's milk butter. I told the cashier I didn't want it, and she sort of rolled her eyes at me (whatever). Also, that shit cost about seven bucks.

Goat milk's butter? Ew, I think I'm going to be sick!

And that is bad service, rolling her eyes at you. What a fucking cunt. Would she prefer it if you just left the perishable item somewhere in the store instead of handing it back to her? Sounds like she doesn't want to do her job.

I was really disappointed. I found some whole wheat English muffins while at the store, and I looooove freshly toasted English muffins with just a pat of butter (that's why I picked it up). COW'S MILK BUTTER, though.

Yeah, I think you're right. She didn't respond to me when I said, "Hi, how are you?" And she didn't say anything after I paid for everything. As I leaving, I noticed that she didn't greet the guy waiting behind me either.

I feel bad for the people who work at stores when, for example, I'm picking up some pasta off a shelf and see a CARTON OF ICE CREAM right next to it. Some customers really suck.
