    Never been to IKEA, Sam's Club, or Costco.
    You are seriously missing out with Costco! I love that place!
    Not worth a 2 hour drive lol
    Oh, no it's not, haha. I live a 10 minute walk from one, so like to swing by just to see what they've got once in a while, make a couple impulse purchases, and for a $1.50 hotdog, lol.

    I'm 20 miles from a grocery store, and it's a tiny IGA with frankenmeat and rotten produce lol

    I would shop Costco if I lived in a city, but I don't think I would ever ever do that again.

    Wow. Different strokes for different folks! You're a country mouse and I'm a city mouse, lol. I wouldn't be caught dead living out in the boonies like that... I don't want to have to drive a car!

    You don't have to drive a car.  You could get a horse, or a horse and buggy.

    I think the Amish would shun me within the first 24 hours.

    They would be super nice to you!
    You would love the store I was working.
    It's like Amish costco.  It's a strip mall style row of buildings, except all connected inside.
    There's a creamery, old time crafts and tools, an entire store of canned food (jams, jellies, salsas, pickles, etc), bulk food, a deli with every variety of cheese and meat made on site, and a beef jerky outlet.

    You can buy lingonberry-based foods in the little food market in IKEA.
    Haha. Ofcourse. Because Where is wonderful IKEA from. Maddafakkin sweden. 

    Yes. I guess that food thing is a good way to try some swedish things
    Indeed. I really love those little chocolate and crispy toffee candies they sell there, in the red bag. They're like mini Skor bars!
    The frozen Swedish meatballs they sell there aren't very good though, IMO. Some people love them.
    Well, I doubt swedes like them either. They also got some bad press recently (over here) with having meat from 15 different countries for the meatballs and not using only swedish meat.

    But I guess it's a fun thing to have in the international stores. Don't know what Skor-bars or that toffee thing you are talking about are though. haha.

    Sweden is the big brother in that relationship. And btw,  isn't the US just a poor mans Russia nowadays. (haha!)

    Hahaha excellent!!  
    I would love to visit Sweden.  I know much of Norway's Fjords and glaciers, what do you have of note in Sweden, aside from beautiful blonde women.

    Haha, okey Daim. Yeah. That's very common here. But most often we buy them as a thin "bar", like this. It's the original:





    I bought this today, it's a mix between a regular chocolate bar and Daim:



    I like the ice cream too:

    Yes, so a Skor Bar is the same as that thin Daim bar (and is a little bit tastier than Daim, but not much - the Daim pieces are much cheaper at IKEA than buying Skor bars, so that's why I like it, haha).

    Back to pizza.....My 13 year old cooked up bagel bites in the toaster oven and they were AWFUL! We have nice italian bread, Rao's sauce and fresh mozz, but he wanted junk food.
