Asked by Wiki User

If you like dumplings.....yes. It's just like it except it's square and it has a different filling. Persanally.....I hate it. And if you never tried dumplings then......I can relate it to a thin cover and cheese filling or something like that and if you don't know what that means then it doesn't help.

What is the origin of the kirkland brand name from Costco?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Before Costco there was "Price Club". Price club used the term "simply" in private labeling products to keep the cost down for the consumer. For example "Simply Soda" was a way to sell a product at a few points above cost, Using the "simply" name vs. the name of the actual manufacturer. (Coke, Pepsi etc)

When Price club merged with Costco the in house brand became "Kirkland Signature" This label change was designed from the very start to take certain products from the level from "discount brand" to "Wholesale savings"

"KS" products are regarded at Costco as being "The best we can offer at the best possible price"

New answer: August 12, 2010

Old Answer:

At this point, it doesn't appear likely anytime soon. The problem is that some Douglas County commissioners are so worried about traffic flow in the "booming" metropolis of Roseburg they are doing everything in their power to block a Costco from happening. What a bunch of "dumbasses". Walmarts cool but Costco isn't...Pleeeeaaase. Costco has higher level of clientele and pays their employees better, but of course Douglas county is overflowing with jobs and such so that's cool.

What stores carry paradise valley instant mashed potatoes?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Some sites say "Honest Earth Creamy Mash" is the replacement. Just tried it do not bother not even close!

I, too, tried the "Honest Earth All Natural Yukon Gold" mashed potatoes. They are duplicating the packaging and preparation instructions, but they don't turn out as good as the Paradise Valley brand. Mine always came out with little crunchy specks of undissolved potatoes which never happened with the PV brand. The Honest Earth brand is made in USA by Idahoan Foods.

Costco is an acronym for what?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Costco is a warhouse based store the specializes in the selling of case goods and bulk items.
Costco is a warehouse sized, multi-location store in the United States. It sells large quantity of products in bulk sizes.

For instance if you were to go to a regular local grocery store and purchase a dozen eggs, a bottle of laudry detergent and a can of tuna, in Costco you would end up with:

36 pack of eggs

3 gallon bottle of detergent

6 can pack of tuna or a jumbo industrial size can mostly used in restaurants

The prices, because you buy in bulk, tend to be a little cheaper as well.
